    Approved...finally

    Well at least we're current. Leaps and bounds better than it was just a month ago. You'll get your FP request soon I'm sure.

    Approved...finally

    Our fingerprints were done last November. What helped in that case was our attorney sending a letter/e-mail to the local office, just 2 weeks prior, telling them that processing was taking exceedingly long. It probably poked them just enough to re-request fingerprints. I think getting...

    Real Estate Bubble In India

    This is pretty much true from my experience. We've done real estate investing here and right about the time the rents no longer covered the mortgage payments the housing prices started to stall and now are diving. It's starting to get back near the levels that make sense because the rents have...

    FOIA instructions for Labor Details

    8-10 months My attorney sent in 2 FOIA requests back at the end of June. Well it's past the end of October now (4months) and they are telling me it's currently taking 8 to 10 months since now that FOIAs are being centrally processed. So basically, unless I cancel the request, I figure at this...

    I-485 Approval(Good news for All of us)

    UN, Bummer to hear that. I'm in the same boat if it makes you feel better. We went in for the interview at the end of June and they said everything is great...except we need to check something in your file....a few days later Canada went unavailable.

    Interview Cancelled

    Also, if you are EB3 they have been cancelling appointments and plan on rescheduling after October.

    Had my interview before I140 is approved...anyone similar experience...any advise?!

    In phoenix, you can send a fax or letter to Sen. McCain's office to get status if you like. They're pretty fast at getting a response (few days). For your 140, you might be able to use the CSC emergency number if that still works. The employer and/or lawyer (if it's the same that did 140)...

    Response from INS. Please help!

    make an infopass appointment there and go see if the file is in their office and ask them when they'll get to it.

    Great! Let me be the first to congratulate you! Go out and celebrate! I hope ours will be just as easy.

    Retrogression - Maybe Some of us need not worry

    I was also under the impression that the I-140 is even referred to as an immigrant visa petition. You would think that if the immigrant visa petition is approved, you would get an immigrant visa ;)

    Visa Numbers Unavailable

    I got the same response when my attorney queried the USCIS about my situation. They said that they have an allocation of visas for pending interview cases. Which seems odd since I have heard many times before of people going to interviews, get conditional approval, not get passport stamping...

    Interview : Transferred to HARTFORD, Connecticut

    Just an FYI, my attorney contacted an immigration officer and they are also in the opinion that we should have visas reserved for us since our appointment is before July 1st. I hope for both you and I this is the case.

    Interview : Transferred to HARTFORD, Connecticut

    Thanks for the positive thoughts. I also wish you the best in getting your approval. Over the last year I have found that although it may be easier and less stressful to passively let things be as they may, more often than not it's better to be proactive and try all avenues to help things...

    EB2 vs EB3 after filing I-485 !!

    Unless they processed your case last week it doesn't matter. The visa availability only matters when they are trying to approve your case.

    485 Case transferred to Local Office?? Why

    Some of the district offices are sitting somewhat idle and they have been using (abusing) the idea of transferring these cases from the service centers. It may show up as a backlog reduction effort ;) They have also been transferring EB cases to train district officers in processing EB cases...

    Interview : Transferred to HARTFORD, Connecticut

    Hi Janannwill, Maybe I'm just completely paranoid but I'm so fearful of missing out right now. As you probably know, the EB3 category is going "unavailable" as of July 1. My worry is that there's a distinct possibility that they may run out even before July 1st. Who knows what will happen...
