Expect some delay for extended review
I have gone through this process. I was called for interview at Santa Ana office and approved in September 2006 and verbally told this. My file was then transferred to CSC for green card processing. It took me about 2 months to get the approval letter and...
Mostly it is update in online system
I have gone through interview, retrogression and then approval process for EB-3 application. Normally, after the approval, the file is transferred to CSC for further processing, and at that stage LUDs start showing up. However, in a few exception, there was...
Go to unscheduled finger print day
First of all, go to ASC and tell them about your situation. At times, they allow you to do the finger print without trouble if there are not many customers waiting for finger print. Or else, they may ask you to come on Friday or Wednesday for Unscheduled...

I think that they changed the procedure......
My case was trasnsferred to Santa Ana office in Dec 2004, and I was interviewed there in August 2005. My priority date of Nov 18, 2001 became current this month, and I visited Santa Ana office on Sept 7, 2006 and the file was transferred to CSC the...
EB3 WorldWide Jan 2002
I think that EB3 worldwide will move much faster, perhaps Jan 2002 the most likely, and July 2001 the most pessimistic estimate.
I think that the tide is about to take a turn
I think that Department of State (DOS) is simply stating that based on information they envisaged that demand from USCIS is lower than expected, so the movement in dates is faster than they anticipated. Uptill now, they have been pretty consistent...
Only EB3 is affected
Sorry there is no movement for EB1 and EB2, but EB3 moved in the latest report published on New Delhi Embassy. I assume no responsibility for the data, as I am simply reading from there.
Thanks

Hello:

Interview in Santa Ana Office today
Hello:
I went for interview with my family to Santa Ana Office. The young officer was polite, nice, and considerate. He took the oath, got some statement yes or no, and then looked at my file and asked simple questions. CSC was not too sure about the status...

Interview Scheduling
So you got only one week notice, that is amazing. Or you got the interview letter late. In my case, I have my I-140 approved. I understand that online status for cases transferred to local office is not updated. How do you know that they are messed up? Did you create any...
Best of luck to you
Great news....Your interview next week. Are you EB3, and what happened to your I-140. I am still waiting for an interview call from Santa Ana office since 12/14/2004 when my file was transferred there.
Thanks

Your A File Could Still Be There
No one has thought of it yet, but the reason that your file is transferred to NJ could in part be the fact that your earlier I-485 was still lying in NJ. While CSC is not accessible, but local offices are. So, write them a letter and explain them the...
Interrview pending at Santa Ana office
I have today gone to Santa Ana office to inquire about my status on my I-485 application. The lady I spoke to was very helpful, and she looked into the computer and told me that background and name checks are updated, and I should expect an interview...
