    On Mar 11, Friday, at 7:42 pm (yes evening), I got the "magic" emails with my approval. I know that eventually the green card gets approved, but for some reason, I had lost all hopes. My FP2 was done in July 2004 and my case had been stuck in security check. I got no RFEs. Repeated status...

    Does notice for FP2 mean that security checks have been cleared?

    Does anyone have an answer? My lawyer informed me that since I got a request for FP2, that my case was pulled from the file and that necessary security checks and eligibility criteria were cleared. Otherwise, they would not have sent the FP2 notice.

    What is the current processing date for VSC?

    There still seems to be a lot of confusion still on the exact processing date at VSC. My lawyer says it is Nov 12 and that the Jun 03 is an error. What are you all hearing from the VSC and your lawyers?

    VSC processing dates back to Nov 12, 2002

    I think that they screwed up. I am now seeing the update date revert back to Oct 6 and processing date to Nov 12, 2002. I think they were just "kidding". I am surprised that the update date was changed for all centers and reverted back for all centers.

    Not a good trend for '02 filers

    I have been observing the approval trend on rupnet and this chat room. Majority of the approvals seems to be for '03 filers. I have also heard that VSC is trying to ensure that they don't have to send out FP2, which could be leading them to approve '03 cases and sit on '02 cases.
