Is there a rationale to National Benefits Center's (NBC) procedure of dispatching 70th day letters to some DORA applicants (e.g. N400 applicant or thienthanh) and not others (e.g. tomparis and Didha)? Is the rationale chiefly tied to the completion vs. incompletion of FBI background and security checks by day 70? (That is, those applicants whose checks have not been completed by day 70 receive the letter and those whose checks have been completed do not receive it.) Or is it all a matter of administrative mishaps? (That is, everyone whose application has not been processed for any reason by day 70 is supposed to get the letter but does not due to oversight.)

seems oversight. because if check is completed, they would as well approve the 485.

Thank you Tomparis and Dhakaya for your warm congrats. I already recieved their official letter of approval sent from Missouri (approved on 25 May, recieved the letter on 28 May) and awaiting the green card. Me and my husband have started our plan to move out of Texas after 5 months of delay.

Address for case inquiry appointments after 90 days

Eric and others,

When you scheduled your appointments to inquire about your case after 90 days, did you go to the office at 8101 Stemmons or 3010 Stemmons? DORA applications are filed at 3010 but the receipt states 8101.

Eric, I hope the Congressman's office will help to expedite your background check. Slyusw might be the only one on this group whose application process has passed the 180th day mark. All good wishes.

Actually, 243 days already passed... We wrote a letter to senator Jonh Cornyn and got an answer that they will contact FBI and as soon as FBI responds, they will let us know.
One month has passed since we got this answer...We are not sure what to do next...

EAD and AP at Dallas office for DORA applicant

Hi Guys,

I made it to my EAD and AP appointment today at Dallas office.

The 70 day letter said I could come anytime 7:00 to 11:00 am.

Reached at 9:00 am. Submitted the EAD and AP application at window number 9.

I had to submit 2 passport size pics for AP application.
FOr EAD, they take a picture there.

Sat on the yellow chair for about 1 hour before name was called to take picture . EAD then given on spot. I nice small laminated card.

Had to wait for another 1.1.5 hours for AP. Recieved the AP..its a set of about 5-6 papers....with my picture stuck on 2 pages.

Thanks and will keep posting about any updates to my 485.
Good luck,

While you were applying for your EAD and AP at the local office, did you have a chance to inquire about the reason for the delay in your AOS application?

Thanks.

Hi,

I did not ask personally because there were other people who had asked and I heard the officer tell the same thing to everyone " FBI name check".

But I saw one thing. While standing at the window , the clerk had a sheet of paper showing all the A# who were supposed to come for EAD and AP that day.
That sheet had 5 colmuns..: A #, INterview date, DAL number, Reason for appointment and one more column.

In the reason for appointment, against my A # it was written "No Data". most of the names had "no data", but a few had " Pending IP".

Then , one of the guys who asked why is there delay in name check, the officer told that, if you want to speed it up you might consider submitting police certificates from all places u have lived and also if you have any smallest record on you, volunteer and submit it.

What do you guys think pending IP means?

Police certificates???? Heck I said earlier that I don't even have a moving violation against me leave alone criminal record. I guess it sometimes work better if you are l little bad boy...lol. Anyways, I was 17 (12 years ago) when I left Pakistan and cannot get any police clearance from there now because as I have no one there who can get it for me. I guess I will just wait and wait.

On second though, I will not pay attention to what those scumback (people at Dallas DO customer service) tell me. They have no idea of how things work.

Well... I submitted a notarized Police Clearance for the past five years (signed by good ole chief Terrell Bolton), during my interview. I had to get that from the Police HQ in downtown Dallas for $15, during my I-360 process, and just happen to take with me. I asked the lady if they could use it.. she actually was very interested in it, and kept the original.

Fast forward 175 days, and I got my approval... so "speeding it up" could be a very subjective term

EricNeesGC · Jun 8, 2005

Well...if thats what needed to get this process going, I will go ahead and do it anyways. I don't know how much FBI relies on information from police departments. Also, I can't remember the last time FBI and Police Department (specially DPD...remember the fake durg charges) got along.
