Different things helped different people. But yes, thanks for reminding, I will include first lady in the list. I noticed that emailing FBI seemed to help some other people. It could all be a coincidence, but we won't loose much by trying.

Yes, I'm looking into preparing documents for suing FBI/USCIS. My case anniversary is May 24. I've been studying materials posted on another thread (http://boards.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=194681&page=590&pp=15), taking notes and saving copies of various court papers. I will have to...

Still in namecheck Guess I'm just like many of us here... Just got another confirmation. They've replied to my second service request (first was in January). Still the same text, background check remains open........ In the mean time I've applied for new EAD and AP on Feb 23. EAD approved on...

See this thread, 711 pages with more than 10,000 posts about filing WOM - you will find plenty of info there. The bottom line is that WOM requires quite a bit of your time, unless you hire a lawyer. Be prepared to read a lot and learn many details, there is no simple answer on "how to file WOM"...

It may be only partially related to I485, but it is still related since most of us have H1B. I'm not trying to suggest discussing every possible topic in this forum... however, checking this thread every day, on some days I find it particularly boring, when there is absolutely no...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that none of the immigration-reform-related bills have been signed into law. There was and still is a lot of discussion and new bills appearing every few weeks, but nothing came close to become law... See http://www.immigration-law.com/Canada.html for more...

Excellent! 150,000 petitions filed against 65,000 quota on the first day of filing... Unlucky ones can safely wait until October 2008 to start working (assuming they will get lucky the next time). In-line with GC lottery, should we call it H1-B lottery? :rolleyes:

Again, the document I referenced is just one of many. Some documents do mention victims, some don't. If I was in FBI, I would probably create references for everyone mentioned in an investigation. Who knows, maybe you will need to be re-classified from a victim to a witness one day. And if it's...

NC resolution timeframes I was reviewing multiple approvals on trackitt, and then reviewed the FBI NameCheck Chief's affidavit (attached in my message above). Given that FBI's document is signed as true and correct under penalty of perjury, I make a broad assumption that it is indeed correct as...

Yes, you're absolutely correct. A victim/witness/whoever mentioned in any FBI investigation will end up in FBI's reference database with pointers to relevant investigations (e.g. you were a victim of a credit card fraud). Once your name is there, it will be a "hit" and FBI will not be able to...

As far as I read in various FBI and USCIS documents, Name Check gets slow when you or someone with your (or very similar) name are in the main or reference FBI index. It's getting much worse if the person in the index does not have reliable birthdate as it becomes more difficult to find out if...

ROW == Rest Of the World, any country not addressed by name in Visa Bulletin

Both my wife and myself were not in US during first FP date (6/11/2006), so our lawyer has requested to reschedule the biometrics to any date in September. The rescheduled dates came in as 8/16/2006, USCIS (San Jose ASC) ignored the "September" part of the request. I was in US, but my wife...

Make sure you don't do medical evaluation too early... It's valid for 1 year only. I've no idea when does that apply - should it be valid at the time of pre-adjudication, or being valid at the time of filing is OK? Given slow processing, did anyone see USCIS requesting to redo the medical exam?

This sounds like they've requested the court to take jurisdiction per 1447(b) and adjudicate the pending naturalization case, and the court refused to do so. In any case, what's not good is that court did not give timelines for USCIS, even after 3 years of wait... I just wonder if that person...

While waiting for new NC thread, you could enjoy reading these two existing ones ;) Stuck in Name Check??? Let's track it: http://boards.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=174845&page=101&pp=15 Anyone with a lawsuit against USCIS or thinking about a lawsuit (Merged)...

See attached document (for those who have seen it already - I posted that a couple of days back, you can safely skip it). See on page 43 - I-765 Application for Employment Authorization - does not require fingerprints or FBI namechecks.

Besides waiting, WOM lawsuit seems to be the only option. Read more here: http://boards.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=194681

I decided to wait until my I-485 is 1 year old (May, 2007) before bugging senators. In May-June I will start bugging all of them at once. Signature added.

That friend of mine was not that willing to talk about the work matters (FBI)... and I understand him. Will see when can I ask him again, and even then I highly doubt he has the stats or would obtain any internal documents for me. Sorry, no much help here... I will have to look for someone else...
