Thanks to all - I won't quit this job from hell yet... but I'm in the system now I have the approval I just need to wait for the plastic card Thanks to all-- What an ordeal -- good luck to everyone and don't loose hope. This will be you one day writing this farewell email

I'm still a little in shock. I actually feel kind of dizzy I have been waiting for years at a job that I hate. I have really suffered. Question: How long until the physical green card? When I had FPs taken, they also took my picture and signature. Also, should I continue to travel on...

Dear BMKarthic Are you an EB2 or EB3 category worker? Does anyone know if his wife would have a derivative status based on his status? Looks like your wife's I-485 application has to wait until visa numbers become available -- this will probably mean faster processing time in the long run...

Thanks -- In my panic over this I didn't realize that I am EB2 and not 3 so this will not apply to me -- feel bad for the EB3s though Thanks for your response.

Retrogression now affects everyone, but what if you're in the FP phase? The U.S. Department of State (DOS) July 2005 Visa Bulletin, issued June 13, 2005, reflects unavailability of visa numbers in the Employment-Based 3rd Preference (EB3) category for all countries. This means everyone in...

Can you get a 2nd FP Notice after your message on your profile states that your FPs were received and that processing of your case has resumed? Thanks

I guess the question is can you get a second FP notice after your message changes to "processing resumed, etc" ?

I just got the same message -- not sure if it means anything though. Does it mean they actually accepted the FPs for review or or just that they received them and will now process the application at some point.... ?

Yes -- nearly all of mine said "warning match found" -- the computer is saying that the individual finger print matches the one that is part of the whole hand print. It doesn't mean anything -- they don't actually check to see if your fingerprints were linked to a crime at the service center --...

Thanks for the info-- is the "name check" also performed by the FBI? The FBI person i spoke with said that their part (the FBI part) was done? Do you have any idea how long the name check takes or what they actually do to check your name? Do they look up credit reports and things like that or...

Suprised to find out today that my LUD date was moved to 05/16/2005. I called the FBI at 304-625-2000 (ask for fingerprints-- this number was given to me by fsc on this forum -- thanks so much and God bless) and they told me that electronic fingerprints must be processed in 24 hours. So...

Dear corr@john Thanks for your reply. I hope that I am as lucky as you were with your FPs-- how long did it take for USCIS to contact you after the FBI approved your FP? Was that the "three weeks" you mentioned above? Did you also have trouble taking the digital FPs?

Dear fsc Thanks for responding -- based on the info you provided I created a profile on the USIC website -- and checked my LUD In response to your question, my fingerprints were taken by computer -- I guess I will keep checking to see if they were rejected by the FBI b/c they are not...

I had my fingerprints taken today in the Wheaton, MD processing center. What a horrible experience -- the people there did not appear qualified and could barely communicate in English. They had a lot of trouble taking my finger prints -- finally the supervisor came over and said "we can...

Thanks for all the replies -- "Tomark" yes my I-140 was approved in less than 2.5 months at the Vermont Service Center. As for the second part of your question --- (1) what is "PD"? -- (2) and no I am not affected by retrogression. Can I do anything at this point to speed up the...

After many sad and bitter years of waiting, my DOL labor cert was approved. Now my I-140 has been approved as well. My I-485 was filed the same day as my I-140, (on Jan. 7, 2005). What happens now? How much longer do I need to wait. I am tired and weary and homesick and stuck at a job I detest...
