Finally ! We heard the AVM say that "this case has been approved on 8/14. We got our I-485 approval on 8/17.

Went to the San Jose service center on 8/19 at 7:20 AM. They let us in thru the appointment line. The process was very smooth. Make sure you take your EAD card, parole papers (both of them), Passport, I-94 and of course the approval. If both spouse and you are on H-1, make sure you take the H-1 as they verify it and tear off the I-94 on it at the bottom.

Here are our key dates:
I-485 filed: 10/31/2001
Receipt date: 11/20/2001
Temporary EAD: 03/2002
Permanent EAD: 03/2002
FP notice: end of 03/2002
Fingerprinted: 05/04/2002
I-485 Approval: 08/14/2002

We are told that the cards will take 6 months to 1 year.

Good luck to everyone else on this list. I am celebrating.....

SAN JOSE INS - How many lines are there?

On our approval letter we were not given a time and/or date, only times (4 days a week) to go visit INS office, for stamping.

Because we are going for stamping, we can say we have an appontment?

Please explain a bit more....................

Thank you in advance:confused: :confused:
