    485 Approved

    gc_mania: I totally understand your frustration, and thats why I was sceptical putting my "card production ordered" info on this forum. But still felt its good to give updates so that you know how things stand. Trust me, I understand your pain and anguish. The thing though is we have to...

    485 Approved

    Guys: I received the "card production" offered email on April 1st. Its been a long time, but finally they did send me the email...so a sigh of relief. I really hope everyone in this forum gets that email as early as possible. On a separate note, usually USCIS sends emails of "welcoming the...

    NSC proc times update

    Cannot believe it. Here I thought that since my everything is ready and will get approved in April, and now this processing date has gone back. Cant believe it... They have so many levers, that its just impossible to have any realistic hope.

    RFE on 485

    PBEC_Victim: I could be wrong on this, but I think back in the days, when dates were not retrogressed this much and the Background check took almost a lifetime, having an RFE meant that things are mostly clear and someone is making final checks to the case, after which you get the 485 approved...

    RFE on 485

    No further updates. I was thinking of calling USCIS on the 1-800 #, but then thought does it matter now, given that the EB-2 Visa numbers have become unavailable “with immediate effect”. The website says they will provide a written response to the RFE within 60 days of the RFE response...

    RFE on 485

    USCIS acknowledged receipt of my RFE response on Jan 2. On Jan 8 and Jan 9, both days I have what is being referred to as a "soft" LUD. The update dates change, but the message remains the same. Any idea here??

    RFE on 485

    Your language is very reasonable and factual. Frankly, I think USCIS is right in pushing the onus on us to prove beyond doubt that we have been honest in providing details on our background: that said, the letters I submitted did not have the reasoning behind the lack of registration at...

    RFE on 485

    Kesab: They asked for both. Its really good that you can have a quicker way out. If it works, just post it out so that others can take this route.

    RFE on 485

    Kesab: Getting the Non-availability document from the authorities in such a compressed time frame was very difficult. Unfortunately, there is nothing specific here that I could recommend to you, except that you should get the ball rolling asap. Make your local representative (in India) say to...

    RFE on 485

    Guys: I submitted documents for RFE on Dec 31 and USCIS website has an LUD for Jan 2, 2008 saying that they have received the response. Based on suggestions from the lawyer, for the late birth certification, I submitted two affidavits from relatives and acquaintainces. For the marriage...

    RFE on 485

    Finally received the actual letter from my lawyer today. For me, the RFE is about birth certificate: additional proofs needed due to late registration. For my spouse, the RFE is about birthe certificate and marriage certficate: additional proofs needed due to late registration of birth...

    RFE on 485

    The RFE email was generated on 12/07/07. As yet waiting for the physical (snailmail) RFE, which would give the exact reason for the RFE. In my medical test, the doctor did not take my TB skin test or a hard look at vaccinations. Reason: I had studied here and thus had my skin test and...

    RFE on 485

    Thanks. NC wasnt cleared till about two weeks back. All shall be revealed in about a week, but just wondering if it had been a "proof of marriage", it would have affected my spouse only (or I am wrong here). The only possible thing that came to mind was perhaps an issue in our Birth certs of...
