last time i called nsc, i was told my case is with an officer but at the same time my namecheck is pending so i guess the case being with an officer does not necessarily means namecheck is done.

GCAnts,
Congratulations on your 485 approval and thanks for the update. It instills some confidence in all of us waiting to see if there is any progress in August. Hope that this trend continues well into this month (and the next, if needed) till the allocated visa numbers are used up.
I think I also remember your initial posts from the early days of PERM being initiated. Good to see that you made it through the process. njoy. Good luck for your derivative/ beneficiary app to get approved soon.
Cheers!

Samulu,
Thanks, Yours are on the way. Good luck.
Actually in the REF receive notice, they said that they would give me any written notice within 60 days. Since they received my REF, it has been more than two months ago and no LUD and responses. Then I called NSC last week, a nice lady said that my case was in limbo ( some human errors in NSC) and were glad that I called them to correct that error. She told me that I need call her again if I would not get any response within 60 days. Surprise to me, an magic email coming yesterday evening .
Wish everything is OK to you.

Hi airberd,
Thanks for posting the updated tracking spreadsheet. Based on the approvals so far, there doesn't seem to be any consistency in terms of PDs...not sure about the RDs but hope there is something that is used as a benchmark by NSC. Also, the number of approvals doesn't seem too many (I also viewed on the TSC tracker)...so, hopefully if the approvals continue, we should see many more on the way.
Best wishes,
Prats

Hi GCAnts,
I am in a similar situation. My wife and I had RFEs on our 485s in May (employment verification, address confirmation, bona fide marriage), responded in June, had an LUD on 6/13 (receipt of RFE response) and then another one on 7/18 (no message change). The message after the RFE response indicated that we should expect a written decision or update in 60 days...which will be up in 2 weeks now.
Based on your experience, I am wondering if I should also call the NSC and reconfirm if everything is ok with our RFE responses or if there is anything required from our side. Did you use the regular POJ technique described on these forums to call the NSC? Or, did you do something different? Will appreciate your inputs. Also wondering if making an Infopass appt around the end of the 2 week timeframe will help in terms of any additional info.
Best wishes,
Prats

Prats,
I am not sure that you should call now or not, I called after 60 days when I received the written notice about receving my REF.
Yes, I used POJ technique to call Nebraska SC. At the 1st time, I following the instruction, the last step (I pressed "3") then it went to National Customer Service. It is BAD, no extra information can be provided by them, nothing helpful. I even thought that they messed up my case and request my case to be sent to the limbo, because I used POJ technique to call Nebraska SC again, they said that my case was sent to the limbo, which just my guess, I am not very sure. However, I am for sure that the National Customer Service is not very helpful, no additional information will be given other the online message.
I never tried InfoPass, I do not know how Infopass works.
Good Luck,

Got the physical card
I and my wife both got the physical cards in the mail today. No LUDs, no "welcome message", no "approval notice sent" since Jul 26 when I got "card production ordered."
For the gurus, should I be expecting an approval notice? Or am I done? From what I read, I do not need to get any stamping in the passport once I have the physical card. Is this correct?
Good luck to everyone else waiting for the card!

Dear Friends
Our frustration that there were not many approvals for EB2 during the last two months is confirmed, NSC farmers have just focused only on EB 3(though I agree many of the EB3 applications had PD which are very old) applications during the last two months, refer to this URL
http://www.usvisainfo.com/pages/8207.html
Now if they don't approve many of EB2 applications in coming month, then Retrogression is looming starting from Oct 2007, and no one knows when we will see our approvals

NSC S....s
All,
Today I called NSC after 3 Weeks as suggested by NSC.
First I gave all my details and he asked me what my question was ....
Asked him about my case status, --- I was informed that it was in review.
I said I was informed the same 3 Weeks back and was asked to call back after 3 Weeks to check on status ....He said that he sees no change in my case.
I just tried to persuade him to let me know how far is my case from getting approved...Got a reply that I will be informed once a decision is taken...VERY Diplomatic Answer
I asked when can I expect a decision ---He said may be in 3 weeks of time --Again 3 Weeks ...YAHEE
I asked if cases are getting approved now and they have visa numbers ---He said YES.....I thought well it time to be more wise now and said THANK YOU SIR
I feel now that we all are.......in this whole process of GC.Its all the factor of THAT GREAT LUCK
