Hi all - After a long and a painful journey with a painful employer, today my 485 along with my spouse, got approved. Feel more relieved and the stress just seem to vanish. Hope everyone awaiting will feel so.

The message changed to

"This case has been approved. On June 14, 2005, an approval notice was mailed. If 14 days have passed and you have not received this notice, you may wish to verify or update your address. To update your address, please call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283."

Don't know whether i have to take an Info Pass and get the PP stamped or the card will be mailed ( I have done a FP with code 3)

For the folks who had a RFE and replied it, hang in there. Your GC should be like 3-5 weeks from the date of RFE recived as I have studied the pattern and proved in my case.

Thanks
Congratulations. enjoy ur freedom

Hey rrcreddy4,

RFE on I485 for self and spouse

RFE was issued on our (myself & spouse's) I485 on 06/14/2005. We didn't have time to get medical done at the time of filling application , so we were expecting the RFE for medical. Will post the details when I get it.

Thanks!.

VSC - Oblivious to new development

I managed to speak with a nice lady at the VSC who told me that my spouse's and my applications are presetly awaiting results of our name check. She was completely oblivious to the fact that EB3 immigrant visas would not be available from July thru October. Well, guess all I can do is wait with bated breath and check the online status 13,234 times a day and hope that stuff happens in the next 2 weeks..

Interview -> Approval -> Receive Card???

Folks, I know this is not the right place to ask question, but I am also one of 2004 tracker subscriber so that I hope fellow 2004ers can help me on this one.

My wife and I had an interview with San Antonio office on Monday (our case is in VSC but we reside in Texas). This was a surprise interview since the website never changed since our FP, which was done 3/15. After about 45 minutes routine questions my case was approved and the officer said the card will be ordered, while my wife's case cannot be approved since her background check is still pending, but once that's done, everything will flow through since she has completed the interview as well, card will be ordered as well.

Here is my question:

1. How long does it take to get the card if the officer say the card will be ordered?

2. What kinda background check that my wife is pending on? Name check? How can I track it? Is there any way that I can speed up this process?

3. Now that my passport has been stamped (also my 485 passed 180 days as well), I should be able to change job right away, right? (I have EAD as well, 140 approved)

Thanks to everyone and wish everybody get your lucky sooner!

I don't know about the background check, but a colleague of mine said she got her green card 3 weeks after pp stamping, but for her husband it took 6 weeks, even though they were interviewed together.

As for changing jobs, I believe it is unwise to do so immediately after getting the green card. I think it can raise a red flag especially if you are going to apply for citizenship later. Your employment history is checked at that time. The reason is, the rationale for employment-sponsored green card is that the employer wants you to work for them "permanently", and leaving them too soon after getting the card could be construed as fraud (if the immigration authorities find out). On various web forums (including here) I have seen the safe interval for job change as being 6 months to a year after getting the green card. I went to an immigration seminar where I asked an attorney about this, and he said that he would consider it absolutley safe to switch jobs only after a year had passed from the date of issual of the green card.
