April 2009, Filers, Post here

Sorry for not posting much, didn't have anything going on until today. I have my biometrics appointment today at 3:00 pm at the Application Support Center in downtown Pittsburgh. Luckily I work like 10 minutes from the place and then i'll probably head home since I have the extra hours already made up to take off for this appointment.

So far, none of my cases are online (all have MSC numbers) but i'm going to wait about a week after my Biometrics before I start getting concerned if they're not online yet.

don't worry my AP and EAD didn't appear until approved and GC only appear pre biometrics because it was transfered to csc

I'm so happy that you already recieved your GC, wow, that was real fast, I'm in the same situation like you, My case was transfered to CSC, to speed the proccesed, and now I'm waitng, but how did you got your GC without an interview, I'm very impress, but very happy for you, Congrat! and pls explain this process, maybe i run with the same luck that you have. smile and have a wonderful day.:)

I came in on the K1 visa (fiance of a USC) so this probably had something to do with it. i must admit i was very suprised to be approved so quick, and without interview, but then again if you think of it since we started the process with the I-129F it was approved exactly a year after we filed it, and the London embassy did grill me about our relationship back in November, it was general info like where he was born, he also asked me about working for disney as he noted i had a previous visa issued by them for it, and so i said i enjoyed it and never expected to come back engaged.

Hey guys, Just a quick update - I got my FP Notice today dated 05/22. My DO is New Rochelle, NY and I am based in CT. Most ppl I know around here had their DO set to Hartford CT. Has anyone been to the New Rochelle DO ? There is no processing times mentioned for New Rochelle on the USCIS Website ... . Thanks - Raj.

Its an easy process, Once you logged in, you have to click "User CP"(which is in the top part of this forum page), then it will take you to USER CONTROL PANEL page, where you have to click "EDIT SIGNATURE"(this option is on left hand side, below "setting & options"). Then you will get a signature message window, where you can type/paste your timelines. Once you are done with your signature, you can preview it(PREVIEW SIGNATURE) and then save it(SAVE SIGNATURE)
 
hello Vijay, thank you so much for your advise, I try to make my signature, but it stated that I exceed the 500 words, so I guess i have to modify and put it back again , but you are so nice, Thank a lot, for your time. How is your case is going? enjoy your weekend.

Any updates or LUDs from anyone?
 
Romour?

Hi Folks,
This forum helped me a lot for all of my immigration needs. Old member but never posted anything yet.
I had my fingerprints done at Santa Ana, DO, on 05/15, and I noticed that except for me there are no one there. I asked the clerk about it, and she said it is due to the recession, as people can't afford to pay the fee. Did any one experienced the same?
I have heard a romour, that they are segregating the family based petitions for GC, by the country of origin. :( That's the reason why, they are denying petitions, of people origin from Indian sub-continent, on some excuse or other. I hope this is a romour. Any thoughts folks ?
