Any 2003 I-140 left?

me too

my RD is Aug 28, 2003. Congressman contacted USCIS twice and no effect. So, approval in 10 days....forget about it. Contact from employer just generated a letter saying when my case was placed in process and what day they are processing now. No explanation why they skipped me by so many months.

Go to AILA Web site (http://www.aila.org) and on the left you'll see Contact Congress. Enter your ZIP code, find your Senator or Congressman and contact them. Good luck!

girlcomputer, comp_chem,

Could you please kindly provide me with a sample letter? This might be my last resort. No other approaches sound working.

Thanks.

Calling congressional reps

I called my congressman and it got me an RFE, then another RFE and then another RFE. I checked with a friend who called her senator and it got her an RFE. An acquaintance who is Cuban using Cuban adjustment, asked for help from a Cuban congressman in Miami- yup, RFEs. No approvals yet. It seems like if you use your congressman, you'll get punished. I'm sure others have had different experiences, but that my $.02.

Good luck.

Count me in ----got a REF today

My I-140/485 were filed to TSC in 05/2003. Right now, they are still pending there. I called the customer service center twice myself, got 2 standard responding letters from them; I called the senator and congressman offices several times to ask for their help. Today, I received an email from USCIS, saying that they sent out a REF on my-140 yesterday. My I-140 was RIR EB-3 LC based, and it was filed by my employer, a public university. What the REF could be? Could anybody share his/her REF experience with me? How many days do I have to respond to the REF? Thanks.

I didn't use any specific format.
Just explained what is going on and that I am relying on his help. Attached current processing dates from USCIS Web site.
Then some info like name(s), A#, Receipt #.

As for RFEs... The inquiries (from employer and 2 from congressman) not only DID NOT generate any RFEs but didn't even change the LUD. No effect whatsoever!
 
I-140 (rd : 09/0/2003)

Friends,

I recived an email from USCIS today with the message as below :

"On January 31, 2005, we responded to your request for more information concerning your case. If you have not received our response within 30 days from this date, please call customer service at 1-800-375-5283."

My attorney has initaited 2nd Status inquiry on my case last week. I am just worried what this message is related to ? Is it just a response to the inquiry or RFE or Den......???? . Also this is a first update since 09/05/2003.

Do we get the correspodence from USCIS directly or it goes to Attorney always ? How long it would take to know the details ?

I appreciate l your time and help....!

Thanks,
 
and that is if they get a reply...

By the way, I contact my Congressman office and they got the following e-mail from USCIS:

"I am unable to give you the date of the fingerprint appointment as the
computer
schedules prints. The applicant is in the scheduler. TSC is working I 485
application dated 9/13/02 and the I 140 must wait on fingerprint results
I do not know how soon the appontment will be. "

This is really bad because this e-mail was dated January 5 and obviously, they do not apply any of the memos... They don't follow the I-140 date like the first memo said and, they don't adjucate seperately like the second memo says they now should do... Very disturbing.
 
Name Check not complete yet and hence no update on I-140

I had emailed FBI to check the status on my name check. Following is the response I got:

"I am responding to your email dated October 26, 2004, concerning your name check status for immigration purposes.

A review of the FBI's Name Check Program database revealed that a request from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) for you was received on October 30, 2003, and is currently in a pending status. You may be assured that the immigration authorities will be notified at the earliest possible date upon completion of your case.

I am sorry we are unable to be of more assistance at this time."

Here is the email address to contact FBI (it took them over 3 months to respond):

FBINNCP@ic.fbi.gov

Anybody else with I-140 in 2003 that were not approved?
 
don't count me anymore :)

Greetings,

Last night came the notification email from USCIS. It says they have approved my I140 and mailed the receipt.
I guess it was the filing of the second EAD and AP a week ago that triggered the approval. No inquiries helped I think. Go figure.
See you guys in the I485 thread :)
Good Luck to everyone!!!

----
I140 - RD 5/27/2003 AD 2/3/05 (waiting for the receipt)
I485 - RD 1/21/04 - AD?
FP - 10/23/04
 
Congratulations, InThePit!

Congrat, Inthepit. You are one step closer to your dream, and this one is an important one. I am preparing my RFE for the I-140 and hoping to send it asap. :)
