After doing a detailed ananlysis of the recently approved cases (especially EB3), I think I have figured out VSC's approval pattern- here goes...
if the PD is current and I140 has been approved, they are going by the FP date(FP done date) to approve 485's.
Currently they are working on cases with FP "done date" of 3/17/05 or less. You can also make an argument that they are going by FP "results received" date. But it's the same either way you look at it...
So for those of you whose PD is current and FP was done before 3/17/05, you should have either received your approval by now or got an RFE.
For those with FP done dates between 3/17 and 3/25(I happen to fall into this category) - it could happen any moment folks!!! You may want to rehearse how you want to react upon seeing the approval email ...here're a few sane ideas -
1. clinch your fist and punch the air yelling 'YES...YES' at the same time
2. Start running in slo mo, saying (again in slo mo) 'I....D.....I....D.....I....T'
(this option works better if you have a spouse and can be dramatized even further by lifting the wife up and spinning her in the air...ouch
)
3. (My favourite)Do nothing...just stare at the email...space out...enjoy that feeling of "sweet emptiness"(borrowed this phrase from a fellow poster)
Just PM me if yo need more ideas
Good luck!
