Hi, I got my GC about a year back. How much longer do I wait to apply for citizenship? I thought this was 4 more years but I saw someone claiming that the wait was only 2 years. Is this true? I have spent 8 years in the US before GC. I am orginally from India. Any comments? - thanks
Hey guys,
Any of you that got 485 approved in the same timeframe i.e. 02/05 (stonewall and others) received his or her physical card yet? My wife's card request was recently approved. I am waiting for the approval update on mine.
Thanks

This is the least we can do to offer hope to others in the queue.
Thanks

Finally free!! Got the 485 approval emails about an hour ago. Its been a long and painful journey so far. The EB2 filing proved to be significant. Here are my details:-
PD 06/03
State Labor: 11/27/03
Fed Labor: 01/20/04
RD 03/05/04 (140 & 485 concurrent EB2)
1st EAD and AP approved...
Hey all, I cannot believe this. It is still not sinking in but my I-140 has been approved. Concurrent filing 03/05/04 RD. 06/01/03 PD. Just got my second EAD/AP last week. Just got an email confirmation on this. Will have to wait for the official notice. Hopefully, BCIS does not sink to the...
Yeah right! Soon, it will be two years since some of us applied for 140 and NSC I am sure will "concurrently" adjudicate our 140 and 485 two years after RD. Talk about a broken system!!! I cant understand these s***heads.
All, Can state labor be transfered? If say someone's state labor has been approved but fed labor has not, is it possible to then transfer state labor to another state and proceed with the fed labor???? Seems awesome as I could technically get a state labor in alaska and transer to calif before...
Guys, I have a quick question. It is possible to transfer the state labor to a different state???? It seems to defeat the point. I could get a state labor in north dakota / south dakota / alaska and shift to california. This seems to be ridiculous but this IS the bcis. Is this possible????
All, I heard this from my colleague. Personally,I think this is ridiculous and stupid. But hey, for that very reason it might be BCIS procedure. Anybody know if this is the case or has anyone experienced this before.

What the heck is going on with the uscis and eb2s anyway? It looks like they are going in the order of PD for eb2 (regardless of concurrent or not) but in some other arbitrary order for eb3s. What is this screwed up logic?
Is it just me or does it look like the number of concurrent 140 and 485 approvals has gone down in the last 2 weeks. It now looks like more people are getting just 140 approved without corresponding 485 approval. Has the regression started kicking in already?
All, It is good to hear about approvals. At least it keeps hopes alive. Please try to use a new thread for a new approval. We at least know what is going on. Did anyone notice that the last 5 approvals (2 today + 3 yesterday) from rupnet have been EB2 for NSC?
I am kicking off this thread to capture the priority date of EB2s only !!! Here are the recent approvals: -
Name-PD-RD
------------
vadella------------10/02--------------01/14/04
streddy-----------11/02 (I think)------09/22/03
registrationid------01/03--------------09/27/03
Whos next...
Hi all,
Some of us have been watching the CIS processing pattern for more than a year. Here are some observations that are odd. You may have more to add...
1. It is clear that the overall processing has slowed down from a 140 standpoint. However, it seems (to me) that 140 and 485 are getting...
Folks, Even if you are in early sep 03, please initiate an enquiry. One of my friends got both 140 and 485 apparently after initiating an enquiry. I would suggest any EB2s from Sep 03 to initiate enquiry.
Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that a colleague of mine has got his 140 and 485 approved. His was a September, 2003 EB3 application. Be patient. I think there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Hey guys,
Whats going on with the aila dates? The sep 17 update does not match these dates. Are they correctly referring to NSC? Has the NSC retracted the dates again?
