No Title Theoritically, the stamp in passport is equivalent to green card and most of the times it is not an issue. My suggestion is to carry the I-485 approval notice along with the stamp till you get the actual card. I travelled twice on the stamp and idnt have a problem either time.

No Title I went thru this process and was in a similar situation before. Just like many otehr situations, the law is very nebulous in this situation as well. The general consensus is that it is ok to travel after you get the I-485 receipts either with a valid H1 visa stamp or an approved...

Hi All, I got my passport stamped at INS San Jose on 4/3/01. I was there on 4/2/01 at 4:00 a.m. and at 9:45am when I was exactly 4 positions behind the door was told that there are no more tokens for that day. Today I went there at 2:00 a.m. and was about 250 in the line.. Got in at 8:30 a.m...

No Title I posted my experience in a separate thread. Way too much crowd.

Hello, I went this morning (4/2/01) to INS San Jose for passport stamping. I reached there at 4:00 a.m. But by the time my turn came at 9:30, they stopped giving more tokens. Just couldnt believe it.. Wondering if someone is planning to go there on 4/3/01. We could potentially...

No Title Hi KG0013, Good question as to why it took 4 months between I140 approval and filing. Our corporate immigration dept. and our lawyers together are worse than INS. They have their own procedures and timelines. I was prompt in giving all the docs but they took too much time..

No Title Hi dingbat, I checked the AVM and it is still not updated.. I am planning to go for the passport stamping on monday 4/2/01.

Hi All, I was not expecting it at all, but saw the approval notices in mail today!!. I had several issues along the way (much like many others) and I got several suggestions from this group. Thanks to all, especially Ciba. I had my FP done at ASC San Jose on 3/13/01 and they were cleared...

No Title Mike, I would say waut for a few days. ASC at San Jose doesnt seem to be very prompt in sending all files soon.

Ciba, I cant find the original thread. I posted one with a concern about the time it took for the FP to go from INS to FBI. My wife and I did our prints on 3/13/01, amd my wifes prints were forwarded the same day, but mine reached finally on 3/18/01. FBI sent it back the same day. Thanks for...

No Title I checked my notice and the PD field is empty. My ND is 10/00 and I got my FP notice in Jan\'01. Good luck.

No Title Hello, My I-485 also had the Priority date empty. So far my application is ok. So I wouldnt worry about it. Cheers.

No Title Folks, Mine did reach FBI on 3/18/01. No idea why even though my wife and I gave our prints the same day, mine went there 5 days later. I spoke to a friendly FBI liason office and to quote her, "ASC doesnt send all the prints at the sametime. ASC sends the files to INS and...

No Title Thanks once again Ciba. Hoping that my prints will reach FBI sometime early this week. It will be a full one week by Tuesday. Regards

No Title Hello N Allur, I truly appreciate your feeling for my case. However, no where did I mention that I am concerned that CSC did not receive my prints. I am only concerned that FBI still do not have my prints. Ciba unerstood my issue pretty well.   Cheers.

No Title Ciba, Thanks for sharing your experience. I will wait till next Tuesday and see how it goes. In the worst cases if FBI does not get my prints even after a week, do I have any recourse. Thanks agian. s_satya

My wife and I gave our Fprints at San Jose ASC on Tuesday 3/13/01. I checked with FBI and they confirmed that my wifes prints were received and also approved on 3/13 itself. However, they still dont have my prints. Is there anything I can do. Can someone share their experience if their prints...

No Title Hello Ozone, My ND is 10/00 and I got my AP finally last month. In Jan I went to the local INS San Jose office to try for it and they refused to take it. But I didnt have a true emergency at that time. In Feb, I had my international tickets and I prepared to go to INS and luckily I...
