PHEW! You might not feel a thing, but I am extremely happy for you. :) Your case was the last that I was personally interested in, and you were the last of the originally active posters who have shared the thick and the thin of INS's whims and fancies. I can only say CONGRATULATIONS! :)...

Doesn't mean a thing, usually LUD's reflect that an officer has touched the file, but if you have searched the forum or followed up on some of the threads that exhaustively discuss this issue, you will realise that reading too much into LUD's is a reciepe for disaster. Until you see numerous...

Hopefully you have heard what they say about assum(e)ing things? Specially when it comes to immigration issues, more so in dealings with the INS. When you post a question for which you expect lucid answers, it is in your best interests to provide as much information as possible, since that...

Chaos, Cases go missed when officers have their files open. Mine went missing numerous times sometimes for days, some time for a single day, after finally getting appoved. Like yours mine was an EXTREMELY straight forward case. Interestingly even after approval, my case has been missing off...

It is a pain to have to give back the plastic card. It takes upto a year sometimes to get it back. But hopefully that will not happen in your case. On a side note, did you answer Y (yes) for the Sex question? :)

Wow 02 042 terrific to see your approval, Congratulations, you should join us in our fight to get the time spent in immigration snafu's added to the citizenship clock. Maybe some good can come out of the amount of time you have spent waiting.

You need to be more explicit, your post leaves a lot of questions unanswered, e.g. did you file together, seperate, if so with how much time, etc., before you can garner a half way decent answer as to expected time. A standard rule of thumb implies that if cases are filed together...

hmmmm...... Not a very apt choice of words to use against the moderator of the forum. Specially when it is so easy for them to make you and all your posts 'get lost'. Kapish? Lucky for you I did mark this thread as SPAM so I will let this slide. But your bad attitude definitely calls for a lock!

You don't need a copy of the LC other than for verification that the new job description matches what was stated in your LC. With regards to getting the information, there is no need to get a copy of the LC via your company, all you need to do is file under FOIA with the INS and you will be...

Don't see what the big problem is all about? Once you have a stamp, for all practical purpose it is as good as the real deal. Your citizenship clock has started, you can travel pretty much to any country you want and enter without a problem. Considering how long we have waiting for approval...

Don't see anything wrong in anyone whinning, everyone has been screwed over by INS, if 01/02 applicants have been waiting in the 485 line, 03/04 have been waiting in labor. Early 03's like me were screwed in both places. It is offensive, that without understanding what circumstances others...

CC is fine. Specifically if your Lawyer get the original since the CC has your address on it. When you go for stamping you will be asked if the address on the notice if your own.

No you do not need the visa in HK Specifically if you hold an Indian passport. According to the special status accorded to India by HK authorities, you can actually land in HK airport and get a visa stamped for entension of your stay. You should avail yourself of that opportunity since HK is a...

http://www.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=140488 For info on when you should move. Once you move you can move in any field, flip burgers for all INS cares.

I have absolutely no clue what you are smoking but it probably is pretty darn good. Take a look at the approval threads around you and you will know how contrary your advice is to the evidence. My personal case: FP scheduled 9/1 FP done 7/24 Approval 8/11 thunderstruck, I had...

Nice post max!

peaceinheart, Terrible circumstances to travel in. I wish your and your father all the best, god willing he will take a turn for the better. As far as travel advice is concerned: 1. There is absolutely NO problem as far as the address change affecting your travel plans. The address on...

Actually DO NOT go by the approval document since it is not upto date with the latest ruling.

freeviews, We are veering away from the discussion at hand, and I have commented extensively in the past upon the topic you posed. But once again briefly: 1. Despite my seemingly liberal attitude towards AC21, I am extremely conservative as far as INS is concerned. 2. Going by 1. above...
