    Anyone know whats up at VSC?

    Hi Saras, My case was EB2, approved at VSC but my wife's got struck in retro. Do you know if her case will be transferred (as she is not Eb2, but my derivative) from VSC or will continue there. Thanks, M

    I won't worry too much about LUDs. My case had only one LUD (FP received), before it changed to approval. I think you get email only in some limited scenarios - 485 approved, or RFE. sometimes the FP received LUD is very late, but i didn't get any emails on that. M

    Tracker:485 Approvals after Retrogression:Oct to Dec 2005

    My lawyer tells me retro impacts even pending applications, though ofcourse you have an A#. My wife's 485 is pending. My LUD before approval was on 9/21 (FP received), same as my wife's. I got approved on 9/30 (see signature below), but she did not...no RFE...according to my lawyer, she has to...

    On 3rd the message was card ordered, on 4th it changed to card mailed. So I guess if we get the card, the info pass thing is not essential. M

    Sorry for the naive question, but what exactly is the infopass? and when do i need to bother about this (step)? I got the message that my card has been mailed on 10/4. M

    From my personal experience I suggest that you don't wait for the date. Looks like you are in PA. Most centers in PA will accept walk-in for FP. Take all your docs and go next day you can. I saved 5 days like this (my friend had given my this tip), and who knows...may be those 5 days saved...

    I don't think employer can substitute 140. It is specific for an employee. Can be withdrawn but not substituted. Again from my limited knowledge.

    I am not so sure about approved 140 withdrawl. I had checked up with some lawyers and apparently approved 140 can't be withdrawn after 6 months of approval. However you may want to check that.

    Same here. Approval still not received in physical mail (neither 485 nor 140)

    I have started to expect the unexpected, such has been my experience with the GC process. Technically, my lawyer claims that since the dependent also consumes a visa number, they will be hit by retrogression, but again, who knows.. Although, other than travel related issues like Ap etc, the...

    Hi, Congrats on your 'escape to victory'. I have the same issue, wife's 485 is still pending approval. Did you talk with your lawyer about this? Mine says that hers will be impacted by retrogression. And from my personal experience, don't worry about LUDs. I got one LUD about FP received on...

    Thanks everyone for wishes. I do hope this is not a systems error but having gone thru the BEC blackhole, I am a bit skeptical. But I wanted to know what happens to my spouse's case. Till yesterday we got every thing else on the same day (FP. EAD approval etc). When retrogression kicks in...
