Hi Nivasch
No LUDs on my case also..I called VSC two weeks back , but the lady told me that the case is under process and will take another 30 -60 days for approvals. I think this was the same standered message as couple of others.
I am also in same boat as you , just waiting for LUD/ approvals mail
Thanks
 
140 Approval

I received mails with the approval message for 140 and case reopen message for 485.

LUD changed only once(on 4/29/05) on 290B after the receipt date of 4/26/2005. No message or LUD changed on 290B even after the 140 was approved.

Hope that helps.

Hi VHD999,

First of all congratulations!. How do you know of your approval.Did you receive any e-mails? Is there any LUDs changes before approval exclude that 290B received.

Is your I-140 message got changed after denial.

In my case the LUD of 290B updated with application received.After that no LUDs and still I140 message shows same old message that we received I140 on sep 1st and it will take between 90 days to 485 days.

Can you give me more details of how it got processed with all LUDs and approvals.

Thanks

Regarding FOIPA result

Today we recieved FOIPA response from FBI for my wife.

It says :
"A search of the automated indices to our central records system files at FBI Headquarters located no records responsive to your FOIPA request"

Is this good for us ???

I am still waiting for mine.

I think it says it doesn't have any records but the problem with FOIPA is they don't mention whether they sent the same results back to USCIS. Only e-mail confirms whether they sent the results back to USCIS or not.

BTW, why did you sent FOIPA, is it because you came to know that ur case is pending because of name check?
And please let us know how to send this? and any implications(delay in processing) of sending this?

2 weeks back we faxed the FOIPA request to FBI Washington. I dont think it will implicate(delay in processing) the 485 process. Bcaz we are not sending FOIPA request to USCIS.
Right now I dont know my name check is completed on my pending 485. Just for safe side we requested the records. The FOIPA records will be shared only with the person whos requesting for self.
We also send email to fbinncp@ic.fbi.gov for Name check status. We are still waiting for the response.
Let me know if you need the FOIPA request format.

Hi guys,

Can some of you who have recently applied for EAD and AP renewals please guide me.

1. The last time I applied (8/04) both applicaions were sent to VSC by paper. My applications are based on pending 485 (EB-1 employment based) and I live in PA - do we have to send the paper applications to a lockbox in chicago now (after April 1, 05), regardless of where our service center is?

2. Some of you have tried e-filing. How is that experience and would you recommend it over the paper filing?

Thank you all

Hi All
I called in the VSC in the morning. I have a case where i did not see any change in message after my FP on 4/21/05. I had luds on 4/22; 5/13; 5/26.
A nice lady answered and said that my case is currently being reviewed and my attorney should hear something within the next two weeks. If the attorney doesnt hear anything, I should give them a call back.

One question I had was even if the attorney receives communication from CIS, shouldnt I also receive a courtesy copy if it is an approval letter? It seems that I cannot depend on the website because nothing gets updated in my case.
 
Calling VSC

gcby2020 said:
can someone post as to how to call VSC

Got this from this fantastic forum.
Pasting it for you
please call the USCIS national customer service center at 1-800-375-5283".

Here is the sequence of steps i followed to get to this:

Press 1 (for english),
press 2 (for existing case),
press 6 (for case statues etc),
then press 1( for knowing your receipt no.),
enter the receipt # to get the automated response saying blah blah blah and also at the end saying this is the most upto date information on your case and our customer the same info national customer service agents have (i totally agree with this).
Then choose to continue to the next step "press 3" . choose 3
Listen to the options-
Option 4 "if you feel if you submitted together and one of the applications is left out and not processed (don't remmember the exact message text ..but something about companion case "

You get transferred to VSC after choosing option 4.

Hope this helps.
