I never trusted JIT because there are so many categories of 485.
How can they be consolidated into a single date?
The retrogression of JIT-485 date has another meaning -- don\'t bother CSC.
The 485 waiters with ND earlier than the JIT-485 date have the genuine right to enquire...

Nobody exactly know the flow of 485 process in CSC.
As regarding to FP, earlier finish might (not) help speeding up the process. Anyway it is harmless -- unless your case takes longer than one year after FP.

In most cases, the ASC will allow people to take FP ahead of the scheduled date if there are not so many people waiting in line.
Even though sometimes you might be refused. You can always try it at another day. It doesn\'t hurt anything.
The ASC doesn\'t allow people to take FP...

You lawyer will receive a "courtesy copy" of FP notice.
Please check him/her.
If the date of courtesy copy is 7/31, you can use it to take your FP.

If the scale of new FP batch is the same as that of last one, most (I would like to say "all") people filed 485 in April and May will get their notices.

The last FP batch started at mid-January and lasted for 2+ months.
Most people with ND from 10/2000 to mid-3/2001 (covering 5 and half months) received their FP notices in that period. Then there has been no FP notice for 3 months.
CSC usually mails out FP notices just roughly...
After a long drought, we just see helper007 received his FP notice. According to past experiences, it may portend the start of a FP notice batch.
For those who get FP notice at the beginning of a batch, the lead time between the mailed and the scheduled dates is usually very short.

What are ASCs doing these days w/o new FP notices? Summer vacation?
Because the ASCs are sub-contractors of INS, we might ask them to push INS: give us business!!

According to my memory, the last FP notice batch started around Jan 20th and lasted for 2+ months.
Before that, there was a drought (no FP notice) for about 2 months.
Most people with ND:10/2000~02/2001 got their FP notices in that batch.
If the past experience will repeat itself...

Consult a good immigration lawyer if it is really urgent. Don\'t spare your money on this matter.
Only very few people had this kind of experience.

My FP was at first done on Jan. 24 and FBI told me the quality was bad.
My 2nd FP was done on Feb. 1st and FBI said "cleared and sent back to INS on the same day".
My 485 got approved Feb. 21.
Yes, the policy of INS/FBI may change any time, so the old experience may be...
