I also did all myself

An immigration officer that did my interview and was really nice, called me and said that it is cleared. He said he was checking on it every couple days. Next day i went to INS and got I-551 stamp in my passport and today the plastic card arrived. So I guess, my process is over! Good luck to...

I received my letter last year on July 31st. The picture was from digital camera and also not very new, but how can anyone tell? So you do still have a chance, good luck

Dianac, I just got a phone call from my immigration officer !!! He told me my nameCheck is clear and Greencard is on the way!!! Tomorrow I go to get my passport stamped just in case!!! Wish good luck to all of you guys still waiting

Dianac yes, I applied for travel docs, got a NOA, waiting now. No, this year I did not hear about cleared NameCheck yet. I think they just pile it all and do not touch untill the last minute. I really hope I am wrong...

hmz, thanks for checking on us here. I am waiting for damn name check still...

kamrooz, no, my husband is the principal applicant, that's why his approval did not depend on mine. now I wander what happens, if my name check is not ready by September 30th. My husband will be a green card holder. Can I apply for I485 again?

kamrooz, I looked at some forums from last year (by sushi, vermedeve and others). They were stuck without the name check results untill the last days of the lottery, september 29-30. I talked to my interview officer and he said he can not predict how long does it take, neither he could tell...

I know for sure that both EAD and Green Card require some type of Background Check and it is not the same one.

Thanks for your reply. Yesterday i read on USCIS site that if you have I-485 pending, you can e-file I-131 (advance parol). Do you know if it is true for us, DV AOSers?

hmz Thanks! I hope you are right! My impression from nameCheck siyuation is that it is either really quick (my husband had his passport stamped less than two weeks after the fingerprints) or it is really long (months, up till end of September for some people on this forum last year). And i...

Afraid, I have a question: I am the only one in my family who is still waiting for the NameCheck (others got their passports stamped) and I have to go out of the country for couple of weeks. I decided to apply for Advance parole. What do you think, should I submit it to my local USCIS...

I am in the same boat - my hasband and my son were approved, but I was told to wait for the NameCheck. I am not from any "watchlist" contries, I am from Europe...

I remember Borya went and found out that his Name Check was cleared at infopass. And I guess you can call FBI too. You can ask about the interview too, why not..

No, the officer at the interview told me to contact him by the end of the month becouse I am planninmg to go abroad and my visa is expired. So I try to wait patiently. My 6-year-old got the letter from USCIS: Welcome to America, my husband did not yet. I am waiting...

You can schedule an infopass to find out if your FBR background investigation and the Name Check are clear. This seems like a limiting step for the interview in most cases

No, I do not think so, becouse at the interview they have all your documents you sent to Chicago.

Let's hope it's not gonna be our case...

They said, that theoretically, it may take many month, but the officer said not to worry now, becouse it is only 2 weeks after the biometrics and probably it is just bureocratical delay. He said that usually, if you were not born in a country that FBI has an interest in, it is not a problem...

To USCIS - copies of everything, no originals!! To the interview we brought original documents, original translations with original certifications
