    How long to get the real FP notice when the TSC officer placed it

    That is exactly what I did. I went to the processing center in New Orleans. I drove for 5 hours. I politely asked them to do fingerprinting for me. But they refused.

    Please evaluate my case for NIW/EB1

    Jenna, I think, and this is my personal opinion and I am not a lawyer, that you have a very good chance at both NIW and EA. I have seen individuals with leass credentials, but in different field, got approved in both EA and NIW. The point is not how good you are, obviously you are very good...

    EB1-EA and NIW

    It is a very interesting question on whether one application (NIW or EA) could be approved while the other denied. I have noticed from other posts that those who file NIW and EA together will get a response at the same time. Which hints that INS might be looking at both applications...

    how many days to see approval/RFE/denial after LUD change(s) for 140?

    My I-140 at VSC was approved. LUD only changed once it was approved. I have been following my applications for couple of months and have never seen a change on my LUD until one day I received an email notification that I-140 was approved. I am guessing that a change in LUD without knwoing what...

    Ead??

    I had same concerns when I relocatde to an area governed by the TSC. My I-485, however, was originally filed in VSC and is still pending. When I wanted to apply EAD for my wife, our lawyer filed the application in VSC, which is where they hold our I-485 file.

    I-140 NIW and Extraordinary Approvals

    That is what happened to me either. Both NIW and EA were approved in the same day. I am not sure whether this means that if one of them is rejected then the other will be rejected too?

    485th day today

    Why some EA/NIW are processed before others? I have seen that most cases filed for EA and NIW follow the timelines given on NIS website (processing dates). However, and mostly from this forum, I started to realize that there are applications that were approved months ahead of others. This...

    485th day today

    CT-Waiting ... I am almost in the same situation as you are. My I140 is pending in VSC since 12/02. Did you request information on your case? It seems more than 30 days passed since they released their new processing dates!!! You mentioned something about expected approvals before the end of...

    NIW at VSC approved (ND: March 2003)

    Oberton, That is a great question. It will be interesting to see whether VSC does give priority for concurrently filed 140 and 485. In my particular case, I-140 (ND 12/02) was filed almost 8 month prior to 485 (ND 8/03). Obviously in my case concurrent (but delayed) filing had no effect!!

    NIW at VSC approved (ND: March 2003)

    Congratulations November1 .. I do not have an answer to your questions, I just wanted to seek explanation on how VSC processes NIW!! My case is pending since Dec, 2002. Everyone seems to agree that there are no priorities within VSC on who is processed first. But it does not seem to be the...

    membership in EA petition

    I am not sure how EA cases are evaluated. A friend of mine got his EA approved few months ago. He applied while he was a PhD student. Only had two publications, several abstracts, couple of invited presentations, and approx. 8 reference letters. He did not have a job offer yet!! I think it is...

    Is it a problem if FP status is not updated?

    I am not sure if this was addressed elsewhere ... I received FP notice but after moving to another state. I sent back the FP notice accompanied with a letter stating my desire for a new FP date and location. This action was suggested by my lawyer. Furthermore the nearest ASC does not allow walk...
