My sister obtained a B1 visa for business trip 2 years back. The Visa stamped was 10 year B1/B2 multiple entry. She now wants to visit for tourism/ visit family.
Can she use the same B1/B2 visa or does she have to reapply for tourist visa?
Thanks for your help.
Finally!!
All -
Happy to say that my I485 FINALLY got approved: thank GOD for mercy and finally freedom from this process (almost). Online status only so far - I haven't received the notices in the mail yet.
Does anyone know what happens next? When does one get stamping, plastic card...
Does message change twice
For all of you who have got approvals:
Did your online message change from "FP Received and pending review" to "FP Results obtained, processing Resumed" to "Approved", or did it go directly from "FP Received" to "Approved" ?
I am curious because mine says "FP...
Still says "Fingerprints received on..."
Hey all -
I got my FP done on March 5, 2004, and my status still shows 'Your figerprints have been received and pending review...'.
Is this normal? Shouldn't they have got back FP results from FBI by now?
Any help appreciated.
I485 RD ...
We received a second FP notice for both me and my wife within 6 months of the first one (at Oakland, for a pending case in Vermont). The first FP was in March - and second one is scheduled in September.
I spoke to my lawyer - they think it is an administrative error.
Does anyone have any...
You don't need H1
Once you have your EAD - you dont really need an H1b extension. Neither does your wife need H4 extension. You can travel and return on your AP - why even bother to get H1 B stamped in India, you'll have to go through an interview at the consulate to get it - seems unneccesary...
Thanks!
All - thanks for sharing your experience. In my case, I-140 is approved, so I will give them I140 approval and I485 receipt notices, and see if they agree.
FYI - the banks is Wells.
Thanks again.
Hi All -
Has anyone had the experience of buying a house while their 485 was pending?
I am going through that process - my H1 expires in September 04, and my employer has said they won't renew it as I have an EAD. The loan bank is asking for a renewal of the H1 Visa!
Please share any...
Thanks for the info
AprilGC - thanks for the "profile" information. I can now see my LUD.
Here are my I 485 details
RD - 05/13/2003
FP1 -03/05/2004
LUD- 06/17/2004
AD -?
How do you determine the LUD
I see a lot of posts where people know their Last Updated Date - how do you find that out? I don't see that in the online status.
Thanks in advance for the help!
No luck with me either
Same online status still showing more than a month after fingerprinting (FP done on March 5th).
I read somewhere that calling FBI helps - anyone has information on when one can call FBI, the numbers and what information they can provide?
I am a little confused on...
Please explain!
I had my FP done on March 5th. My case status is still the same - " On Feb 20 we mailed you notice to appear for fingerprinting".
So, I am in the same boat - Can you explain what you are doing? Is it possible to find out something from FBI?
Thanks!
All,
For the past few days, whenever I try to check my case status online, it says " you have been deined access due to too many inquiries" !!!
I don;t think 1 check per day is too many!?? Is anyone else getting this? Is there something I can do to not get this strange message?
Thanks!
Thanks
.. for sharing the information. So after your FP got done, there has been no update to the status online?
What is your 485 Receipt date?
Thanks.
Anyone in the same situation -
We did FP for me and my wife on March 5th in Oakland, CA. It is now March 24th, and the online status on our 485 still says "On Feb 20 we sent FP notices....".
I read from other posts that this changes to "We have received your fingerprints and processing...
Yes, really sad! Instead of crawling forward, they took a leap of 4 months backwards :( Does anyone know what is going on in Vermont? Even California (which is usually the fastest), is now so much further ahead than Vermont.

My wife is in the same situation, I checked with my lawyer, they said it is not a problem as long as H4 remains valid you can travel abroad and back on H4. She is in India right now, she hasn't come back yet but is planning to come back on her H4 (NOT on the AP).
