Im from Iran. I didnt do anything special. My lawyer just send them a request back in February and ask them to approve my case based on the 180days memo. But Im not sure it actually helped! I was about to ask my lawyer to contact AILA for their help but the case was finally approved. AILA helped...

Thanks a lot goodluck2!! for your time and detailed explanation. It was a great suggestion to send a copy of this question/answer along with my AOS application. It seems that you had spent lots of time digging in the available materials. I consulted with some immigration attorneys, but as you...

Just got the crazy email from USCIS! I had no LUD recently. The last time I called them in February they told me to call back in 6 month as my name check is not cleard! EB2-NIW filed December 2005 I-140 Approved in August 2006. I-485 Pending since December 2005. I-485 approved May 6, 2008...

Guys, Can somebody clarify on when we should exactly submit our AOS? Is it after our case number become current or after October first or ... ?!!! Thanks.

Badluck2, I am also a Iranian graduate student in US. Don't worry about this FBI check. I had this interview last year. Lots of my friends are also interviewed by FBI. They will just ask you some general questions. I have been selected for DV2009. My case number is 8XXX. I am also planning to...

My case number is AS8xxx. Based on the department of state visa bulletin records, for the last seven years this case number became current in: 2008-April 2007- after Aug 2006- after Aug 2005-Jul 2004-Feb 2003-April 2002-May I am on F1 visa and will finish my PhD by the end of summer...

Same for me! Im at TSC too and waiting since Dec05! But at least you are one step a head of me! you have a FP which is current! I did one FP back in Jan 06 and I was never asked to renew it! I wish at least I would get a request to do another FP. That would be a sign that something is going...

I traveled to Aruba in January for my brother's wedding. I returned using my AP without any problem. If your H1B is expired and you need to renew it, you cannot return without doing this evenif you've been out of the US for 1minute.

Hi GBA1029 Can you clarify two things: 1) what do you mean you called "TSC"? do you mean you simply called the 800 number? Thats a general number for customer service and you will not conect to a special service center. 2) how do you know your case was "assigned" to an officer? I mean...

Congratulations!!!!!! it's also interesting that how this USCIS works! it's totally random! My I-485 is pending since 2005 and still there is no sign of approval. I just got a letter after my inquiery that my file is pending due to background check and call back in 6months!!!!!

My EAD took near 6 months to be issued! I had 5 infopass appointments and 10 calls to the 800number! they just said we are doing background check! It was finally approved after 6 months and after my company paid $5k for an expedited H1B application to bring me back to work!!!!

When you say you called TSC you mean you called the typical 800 number?! Because i did the same, and the person on the phone told me he couldnt do anything and if an updated biometrics is required, i should wait till i get a notice from TSC. Basically he just could see basic stuff from my I-485...

My file is at TSC. I've been stuck in name check for over 2 yrs now. I called the 800 number on Feb 21 and talked to a very nice lady (very surprising!!!). She put an inquiery on my file and she told me hopefully your case will be approved by March 10! Guess what!? I got a letter from USCIS...

My file is at TSC too. I've been stuck in name check for over 2 yrs now. I called the 800 number on Feb 21 and talked to a very nice lady (very surprising!!!). She put an inquiery on my file and she told me hopefully your case will be approved by March 10! Guess what!? I got a letter from USCIS...

My freinds filed at other service centers got their GC because of this memo within the last week!!!! I donno what the f#%# is wrong with TSC. Im at TSC too and have been waiting for over 2 yrs now to get my GC. No LUD on my 485 petition. Anybody saw any activity on their online status at TSC...

There is nothing as "interim EAD" anymore. They stoped issuing that since 2006. I had 3 infopass appointments and they were all useless. The officer did the same thing as yours and emailed TSC for my case. I was basically took out of the payroll system since January 08 because of my Expired EAD...

I applied for renewing my EAD and AP back in September 2007 in TSC. Got my AP but no EAD yet. I had 3 infopass appointments, request for expedited process, 4 calls to the 800 number and etc. One answer: we cannot give you EAD because we are doing background check on you and its pending...

I filed to renew my EAD back in September 2007 in TSC and did my biometrics in November. This was my third renewal. My old EAD got expired on Jan 9 and since then I'm unemployed! I had 3 infopass appointment and 3-4 calls to the 800 number and all they say is wait because we cherry picked you...

There is FP for EAD renewal! I did it myself for renewing my EAD. I filed for EAD renewal on Sep28,2007 and still I didnt get it after 3 infopass and 3 phonecalls to USCIS. Because of this I have lost my job and Im currently unemployed but nobody at USCIS cares to do something.

When having H1B stamped in ur passport, can u return to the country using AP? this is my main question. People argue that H1B is no more valid the moment u use your AP. I have googled this and arguments mostly support this isea but some people still say in this forum that this is not true. Any...
