Hi all, I'm preparing to file for I-130 for my brother back in my home country and had 2 questions regarding it: 1) I have N400 pending currently. Do I need to get the US passport before filing for my brother's I-130 or the copy of Naturalization certificate is enough? 2) Both mine and...

I'm planning to call my mother who has a 10 year multiple entry visa from Sept 2010 to January 2011. My question is whether I can call my mom again by end of May next year (planning on having a baby around that time)? Will that create any issue at the port of entry about entry or length of her...

My mom has a 10 year visitor visa since 2008, but never visited US. I am thinking of buying air-ticket for her. My concern is names in her passport/visa. Let's say her name in old passport was 'Sudesh Kumari', but all her other docs (ration card, election card etc) have her name as 'Sudesh...

Experts / Gurus. I'm new to the notion of consider using AC21 and need some guidance. I recently found that my case is stuck at the much dreaded name check. My spouse has already started pursuing her career (using EAD) in another city. Earlier I was hoping my case would get approved soon...

NSC 485 processing date jumped to 8/30/05 Guys. The NSC processing date for 485 has jumped by a month to 8/30/05 (It was 7/30/05 in beginning of the month). Pretty cool :D Let's see how much time it will take for the big month of September 2005 (just before retrogression)...

Every new month, I'm pretty sure there are hundreds/thousands of GC waiters who become eligible for GC - as their PD becomes current. But I havent seen any flood of approvals from NSC. Heck - I havent seen any approval so far in the month of may. Additionally NSC processing times seem to...

My wife (on H4 visa) applied for SSN in December. But we have not recieved the SSN card yet. (We both got EAD cards back in Nov) My wife enquired at the SSN office and they said that the INS has not verified her EAD yet and they are waiting to hear back from INS. Anybody with similar...

I am planning to visit India in March/april and my PD will become current on March 1. I do not have a valid visa stamp in passport, although I do have AP approved. Will there be any problem if my GC gets approved while I'm not in US? I mean will it cause any problem while entering back to US...

After my FP yesterday (1/12) I got lud yesterday and another today. What could this mean?? Does it mean that my FBI name check is cleared?? Gurus - any ideas.

Please post if you got LUDs for 485 (non FP/bio related) or got approval recently from NSC. Please post the lud/ad date and your ND. I'm trying to get a sense of which month NSC is working on (officially they are working on 4/2004 cases, but we know in reality they probably are processing...

Gurus. I used a substitute labor to concurrently file 140/485 in sept 2005. 140 is already approved. I'm thinking of changing jobs after 6 months of my ND. Was wondering what are the risks involved in using AC21 - esp. with substitute labor, since I'm certain that my employer is going to...

I'm starting new thread to track and discuss the 2005 cases. Please post your dates / experiences here, if you applied to NSC in 2005.
