    Cards Ordered

    As far as the plastic card is concerned, I do see a pattern here. I'm the primary applicant. We did the stamping around mid October. The online message changed to "card ordered" for me about a month later, and I received the actual card last week. As for my husband, nothing has changed...

    Those Approved - Pls. reply

    My attorney didn't include those I actually asked him about it at the time of application. He said it was not necessary because by the time the INS processes the case those info would have been too old anyway. I guess it doesn't hurt to include the W2 etc. but not including it in your...

    RD 9/15 approved

    RD 9/15, ND 11/13, Finger print 4/26, EB3 I checked the INS Web this morning, expecting to get the same old finger print message, instead I saw "This case has been approved". What a wonderful surprise. With our poor luck in the GC process, I thought the approval wouldn't happen until 80% of...

    "All who wander are not lost." J.R.R. Tolkien

    Have you read Orson Card? For those of you who are into fantasies, I personally think it would be a loss if you don't check out Orson Scot Card. While his style is vastly different from that of J.R.R.T., his stories are incredibly intriguing. After reading his Ender's Game, I couldn't help but...

    Just called IIO

    I really don't want to think about this renewal thingy for now. I think I'll give it a couple more months. By then it'll be probably too late but I'm willing to take the bet.

    Just called IIO

    RD 9/15/2001, ND 11/13/2001 Just talked to an IIO and was given the standard answer No. 1: We received your case on 9/15 and we are currently processing 9/1. You should hear from us in a week or two. I mentioned that my EAD expires in 3 months and I'm not sure whether to go ahead with the...

    INS workload cited in the 2003 white house budget

    The 2003 budget itself doesn\'t matter much to those of us who filed 485 last year. However, if you scroll down to the workload section, the number of cases does shed some light on the work cut out for INS in the months ahead. I think it looks promising. Here it goes: ----->>>>&gt...

    Gurus.... Pl help......... Urgent

    Why is it taking so long at your local INS? Are you sure it takes 6 months to process EAD and AP at your local office? We got 485 receipts and EAD from VSC but went to the local INS for AP. We got it on the spot. I don\'t think you need a company letter to get AP. Just put in writing that you...

    Recd only EAD card but no 485 receipt from VSC

    Don\'t worry Our EAD cards came almost a week before our attorney got the I-485 receipts. Strange it may be, but I don\'t think they would issue you EAD unless your 485 case has been put in the system. Don\'t worry, I\'m sure you\'ll get the receipt very soon. By the way, how did you know AP...

    Strange way VSC works

    I\'ve got EAD, but no receipt or AP Our 485,EAD and AP applications were filed mid September (don\'t know the exact date, the attorney mailed it out). We received EADs on Nov. 26 but have not seen the receipt for 485. I called INS and was told that my case was entered in the system on Nov. 13...

    FP for New Hampshire people, please post here

    Just talked to INS Manchester Information Officer I called the officer regarding non-fp issues but asked her how the FP notice is done for NH. She said for employment based 485 cases, the notices are generated by Vermont center for NH residents. I always thought NH FPs are scheduled by the...

    FP for New Hampshire people, please post here

    RD 9/14, ND 11/13, Waiting for FP It\'s obvious that NH FP is a lot slower than many other states. We can only speculate the reasons here but I suspect it has something to do with Manchester office\'s workload and/or efficiency,(or inefficiency, for that matter). I\'m not sure how FP date will...
