Hi ALL,
Want to share with you all about our (me and my wife\'s) I-485 approval. Came to know about it from the CSC-AVM. It was a long journey .. here\'s the story -
EB3
PD: 12/97
EDD twice - first one was rejected cos I was underpaid!!
I-140: 10/98 Approved 10/99
Lucky to have I-140 approved when all dates were current temporarily.
I-485: Applied 12/99
First EAD & Parole: Approved 02/00
FP: 08/00
RFE-I: 10/00 for W2, Pay stubs, employee verification letter, etc. Company was bought after I-140 approval. This was obvious from W2s!!!
RFE-II: 01/01 for new I-140
Second EAD & Parole: Appoved 02/01
I-140 (2): Applied 03/01, AVM Updated around april/may, Approved on 08/01/01 - lawyer received the notice, AVM Updated on 09/01/01. There was an error on I-140 approval notice, PD was 12/98!! I asked my lawyer, but they said it does not matter anyways.
I-485 Approved on 09/07/01. Heard on the CSC AVM. Lawyer did not know about this, but said that they had faxed the error in new I-140 to CSC.
About the next step:
1. When to expect the notice in mail? I have moved and not sure if INS has updated address.
2. What documents we need to stamp the passport?
Also, I would like to thank all of you here to share your experiences. Specially, ciba to maintain the information. You may want to update mine.
Wish you all good luck,
Pramod.
