    to KJ This is a new issue for I485 filers. AILA may be the place to look for an answer. See, it's like catch22 - PD is not current, visa unavailable, then we (CIS) have no reason to work on a name check. When visa number becomes available - name check is not complete, back into the queue to...

    Cajack: yes, in PACER has Cause: Petition for naturalization hearing 1446. But your cause of action is 1447b, that stipulates that 120 days rule. 1446 - as far as I remember is a more general that petitioner can request a hearing before immigration judge blah blah blah, and then it goes into...
