Hello all !
I got my 485 approval ( WAC-02-034-XXXXX) last week (Apr 07, 2003), and had posted this on an earlier thread.
However my wife has so far not got her approval. My wife has been filed as a "beneficiary" to my 485 application late last year, and so her WAC is WAC-03-XXX-XXXXX. She has finished her fingerprinting in Feb 03, and now the status shows pending status
On enquiring about this on Apr 10, 2003, this I got the replies as below -
IIO: Your wife will be processed in the normal sequence even though she is a beneficiary, as we are not presently processing 03 cases.
My Lawyer: It should come within the next 2-3 weeks, as they cannot delay "beneficiary" cases for long. It shoudl not matter even if she is a 03 case.
Now the above two replies are conflicting and I dont know which one will to beleive. My wife's I-94 expires in September; so have the couple of questions on this as below, in the event that the IIO's statement is true and her approval does not come before I-94 expires -
1. Will her status in US be invalid after her I-94 expires?
2. Does she need to file for something like I-94 extension?
3. I-94 happens to be one of the documents we have to take for the purpose of stamping the passport, when your approval comes in. Will it create any problem at that time?
Request your patient perusal, and responses...
Thanks in advance!
