Congrats antonioa77 !
As for your namecheck clearance i still believe it cleared on its own boosted by the fact that you are not from India/China.
Folks from India/China,
who have been stuck in background check , did any of you get namcheck clearance after writing to FL ? If i see 5...
New immigration bill and its effects ?
There seems to be some points based system coming. Will it affect the existing I-485 applications ? I have a bitter experience of the labor moving from SFO DOL and landing at Philadelphia Backlog Enhancement Center ( and it rotted there for 3.5 years ).

My Freedom of Information/Privacy Act request to the FBI resulted in a "no record" response. Given that, why is my name check request still pending?
Freedom of Information and Privacy Acts (FOIPA) requests are sometimes confused...

USCIS looks at your documentation only after namecheck clearace ?

I applied both on April 12, 2007 . Wife's AP cleared in 2 weeks. My AP cleared in 1 month. But EADs are just sitting there. Last year AP & EAD got approved within 14 days.
One of the reasons : Many are stuck in namecheck
Many are stuck in namecheck ( you know mainly which countries ) and so didn't consume the anticipated amount of visa numbers and visa numbers got wasted.
I think i should search fo statistics ( for eg. how many from a particular country applied in a year and how long it took etc ), but that is tough,
since FBI doesn't release such statistics.
Meanwhile , antonia77 , i a happy that FL helped you clear namecheck. But i asked a few people...
Avg. time for background check clearance ?
So, it is known (atleast i get impression through these forums ) that a significant percentage of I-485 applicants from retrogressed countries
get stuck in background check ( Definition : Background check pending more than 6 months ).
Now the...
I thought, since one suffered at infamous philadelphia backlog accumulation center , the next stages will become faster ( indeed I-140 was cleared in 1.5 months ) , but i don't know.
One of the strong reasons why visa numbers were wasted is that many applications didn't get approved due to security check. This could sound positive for the folks with later PDs, atleast they could apply I-485 and get benefits like EAD,AP etc.
There is some reason
By August 1, 2006 the EB2 visa dates of a particular country were being
"U" . So there was a rush of applicants filing in July 2006 ( i happened to be just one of them ). When they sent applications of July 2006 for security check it was a huge box. Seeing the size of...
Officially 'stuck' in name check
Please welcome me to the club. Ever since i filed I-485 i kept posting, many Indians will get stuck ( still i had a hope that i will belong to the minority of people whose security checks would clear in less than 6 months ). See now!
My paralegal had made a...
