My I-485 was approved today. ND is 03/24/2004, AD is 02/25/2005. I-140 in EB1-OR category was approved 01/25/2005 without RFE. Tracker is edited with my info. This forum was extremely useful for keeping track of "realtime" USCIS processing. Good luck to all! Just hang in there. Your approval will come soon.

Has anyone received FP notices for VA/Arlington center yet? My 485 RD is ,May25, 2004. Would appreciate to get a response.
I140 AD Apr,2004
I485 RD may25, 2004 AD?
FP?

It seems nobody is working on VA cases, I didn't receive FP notice or I-140 Approval yet, althought alot of people before and after my date got I-140 approvals or FP notice. Is it the case for other Virginians?

Thanks

jpanchal (and ofcourse to everyone else who updates the spreadsheet per the guidlines):

First of all thank for your initiative and for a great job at compiling this spreadsheeting and updating it frequently! Its truly a service to everyone on the forum and hopefully your efforts are rewarded by approval of your application at the earliest!

I have 2 suggested modifications especially in light of the recent retrogression of EB-3 category for certain countries:

1. Can you add a column (may be Col B) to capture the country of Birth of the applicant to give us an indication whether the applicant is subject to retrogression or not?

2. Can you make "Priority Date" of the application a separate column to give importance to this field so people provide this date?

What I am trying to get is a sense of how the implementation of retrogression is having an impact on the processing of applications? Are they really rushing through all the applications with Priority dates prior to Mar-02 (Priority dt current as of Mar-05 bulletin) and moving forward how is that date tracking?

In addition, are they approving 485 applications (ones filed prior to 12/31/04) even though the priority date might not be current?

Thanks and regards,

My I140/485 ND is 5/11/04 and I did not receive any FP notice yet. It seems that not many people in VA / DC are getting these notices because the Arlington center is very busy (that is my conclusion)!
Good luck to all of us!
Thanks Tiredofw8ing & FILE040505 for your updates. Then it seems that we are not alone. Hope we get our FP notices soon and 485 approval. I will definitely keep the forum updated about FP notice.

Updated Tracker

All:

Per my previous note, I have added the two coloumns for Country of Birth and Labor Priority Date to track status of applications as a result of retrogression for EB-3 categories. (Please note that people who only listed month of their priority date in Column B and not date i.e, 06/02, I have updated the date to middle of the same month i.e., 06/15/02)

I have also updated info for the following people in the forum since the last updated sheet posted by jpanchal:
atmaramji , zamq, minicooper, northamerica, ravikanth_b, rrml, itec, tony403, kosmokramer, eagertoknow

Thanks and regards
 
Aprill 2004 FP notice, but...

Dear friends! Just received our FP notices, for self and wife. FP ND is 02/14/2005. FP is scheduled for....today, 02/25/2005 8AM. Now is 02/25/2005 6:50PM. San Jose USCIS center is open tomorrow. I know that I'll have an answer tomorrow around 8 AM, but... does anybody has a positive experience going for FP at one day later? Please share your experience. Thanks a lot!
 
Finger print notice

Guyz i have taken my FP for my 10 fingers today.NO photograph,digital signature.

My notice says "Finger prints notification" on the top.

In the body of message it says "If you are unable to appear at this time,you may go on any following wednesday at the same time noted below,as long as you appear before 05/14.2005.If you do not have your biometrics taken by that date,your application will be considered abandoned".

At the local INS office,a lady has told me to fill up a form,and she has taken my FP notice,did my FP,gave me the form i filled with the stamp and signature,for future reference.

For my EAD i have my photograph taken straight,in september at port of entry they have taken my photograph and finger prints of index fingers.

My Question is they haven't taken my photo and digital signature,Do i need to get them done?

Those who are going tomorrow ,can you find out about the biometrics.

Jharkhandi, thanks for your hope;)

It is not hope. Post your experience tommorow. Also keep a copy of your FP notice, so that if anything is unusual, we can discuss.

Both of you need to relax now. Good night.

Before I sign off - best of luck to both of you.
