My Ap was pending for review for over a year until my 485 was approved and then they denied my AP. Wish you good luck.

Received my card today. Passport was stamped on 04/05/05 in Bloomington, MN. Roughly 3 weeks waiting. Good luck to you all.

Does this mean my card has been mailed? I got the following message for the status of my I181 (not 485): Application Type: I181 , CREATION OF RECORD OF LAWFUL PERMANENT RESIDENCE Current Status: This case has been approved. On April 20, 2005, an approval notice was mailed. If 14...

Passport stamped on 04/05/05 in St Paul. Received welcome letter on 04/19/05 saying that the card should arrive within 3 weeks. Is this too good to believe? How long does it usually take for the card to arrive after the welcome letter?

Is the employer required to pay the prevailing wage after my 485 was approved? If the employer fails to do that, will it be a legal issue for either me or the employer? Will my greencard get invalidated in case the government finds out that I am paid much less than the prevailing wage? Will it...

My 485 got approved in local office after interview. I have a H1 transfer pending in NSC. Do I need to cancel my H1 transfer? Since my 485 just got approved in local, in case that NSC approves my H1B before receiving the notice from local office that my 485 has been approved, will the H1B...

Send it to Chicago My case was transferred to local office. I renewed my EAD through the Chicago office in Feb 2005 and it was approved in Mar 2005. I sent my application documents to: U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Services P.O. Box 805887 Chicago, IL 60680-4120

We got our passports stamped too. The interview was very smooth and simple. The officer just went through all questions on the 485 form and took my employment letter and that's it. Thanks this forum for giving us lots of helpful information. Good luck to all.

curiousGeorge, thank you for your information.

curiousGeorge, did the Officer ask for your company's tax returns? In the California Service Center, the Officer asked for company's tax returns as well.

I am having a 485 interview and CIS requested that I bring the last 3 years' W2 and Tax returns. Do the Tax returns mean the 1040, 8843 etc forms that I filled in and sent to IRS every year? Do I need certified copies? Thank you.

Thanks a lot for all you guys' comments. I feel much better and am confident on my 485 interview now.

Thanks both of you for your reply. Is it a CIS regulation that as long as a person's out-of-status period is less than 180 days, he/she should still be qualified for 485 approval? Any official website/documents mention about that? No, I didn't sent AC21 because I am not the primary...

I got laid off on Jan 10, 2005 and got a new job on Feb 28, 2005. Before I was laid off, I was a H1B holder and I did a H1B transfer after I got the new job(the transfer application is still pending now). Before I was liad off, my 485 has been pending for about 2 years and my spouse is the...

venkatm, Thank you for your update. I just got a call from my lawyer telling me that my interview was scheduled on 4/5/05.

Congratulations! Congratulations! You are close to being approved. On which date did your case got transferred to MN office? Just want to get some ideas about how soon I can expect to receive the letter. Mine got transferred on 01/06/2005.

Nope! Still waiting in darkness ... :(

Same situation here My 2nd 131 has been held for almost a year now because of "Pending Security Check". I checked with FBI, my name check has been completed in 2003, so obviously, this security check is the so-call security check performed inside CIS. I don't believe it takes this long to...
