one form is adequate I have done this quite a few times (at least 5) in the past 4 years, as my parents and in-laws visited us. Everytime I filled only 1 form. I listed my father as the visitor and my mother as his dependent. No problems. And yes, I also did them both when I was on H1B...

A friend of mine has been trying to schedule an appointment to visit the Houston district office for Passport stamping, since yesterday. Everytime he types in his zipcode, which is within Houston, he gets a message saying the service is not available for his area? Anybody has similar...

Folks, I just went and came back from a trip to Mexico. With the GC and my Indian passport there was no problem at all and no visa was required to enter Mexico. No questions asked at the port of entry, stamped as a tourist. And of course no problem at all coming back to the US. There...

I also wrote to Senator Cornyn at the same time I wrote to Congressman Culberson. Congressman got me a response in 15 days whereas the Senator got me a meaningful response after 90 days. I think it has to do with the staff at their offices- how efficient they are and what contacts they have at...

Congrats!

goastros, I requested help from Congressman John Culberson in whose district I reside and his office got the job done. sg_rg2

hmcis, I would trust the message from the Congressman's office. My message remained "FP received" all along, even after approval, and only recently changed after the actual green card was ordered. Also, I didn't receive any approval email, although I was registered with the USCIS email...

Received GC Just like tsc123102, I received my card yesterday. We are now waiting for my spouse's card to arrive and that will complete the process for our family. Good luck to others who are waiting.

Congratulations sadboy from a fellow 2001 victim! Change your ID to "happyboy" now and enjoy your freedom. sg_rg2 ND 09/01 AD 07/04

Today my message changed to "This case has been approved. On September 13, 2004, an approval notice was mailed." This is like the original I485 approval message. I assume that they meant to say that the card was mailed. When are these guys going to get their act together? sg_rg2

Card ordered for both me and spouse. Mine was ordered on Sep 8 and spouse's on Sep 10. LUD for me is Sep 10 and for spouse is Sep 13. Hopefully, we will receive them soon. sg_rg2

congrats rli, Congratulations! As a fellow 2001 applicant who completed the marathon just a bit earlier than you, I am very happy for you. sg_rg2

no harm in trying Harvinder, You can certainly go with your wife to the FP location and explain your situation and ask to be fingerprinted. Usually these folks are contractors who work for USCIS and unlike their clients they are more business-like and courteous (at least that was my...

Mine changed too My status also changed to card ordered on Sep 8. No change for my spouse though. So it seems that the Houston office send out the paperwork to TSC monthly. So all of us who got stamped in August would expect some progress this month. Cheers.

Any update guys? I am tired of watching people who went for stamping at other offices receive card within 2-3 weeks of stamping. What is the problem with Houston?
