Any May filers around?

Rescheduling of 485 worked, however also got a FP notice of EAD. I never heard of that. I am a bit perplexed?

Any advice or similar situtation. I did apply for 765 after applying for 485.

Did it come on the same NOA? They have different FP requirements for I-485 and I-765, I believe it's ten fingerprints for I-485 and two thumbprints for I-765, therefore both are listed separately. But mine are done at the same appointment.
 
I had my Biometrics (I-485) before I applied for EAD... But they took all kinds of finger prints... I would guess that they are done?
 
Do not reschedule your interview. It is bad karma. (if you believe in it! :p)

I would rather change travel plans...

I think in my case it would be bad karma to not show my wife the location I'd picked out for our church wedding next year, and to not visit my parents every other year as their only child! It was difficult to coordinate four people's (mine, my wife's, my dad's, my best friend's in Austria) work schedules so we have a couple of weeks to spend together and the next opportunity would be in winter, and there's not a lot to do in Austria then except huddle together to stay warm. :D

I think worst case we'd have enough time to completely re-file our case in September and get an EAD before December when my H-1B expires.

The Praetorian Guard (in Latin: praetoriani) consisted of a special force of bodyguards used by Roman Emperors. Before being used by the emperors, a Roman general's bodyguard, also styled the praetorian guard, was employed, dating at least to the Scipio family — around 275 BC. Constantine I dissolved it in the 4th century.

Thanks for the history lesson, Praetorian - on a related note, my wife and I might visit the Roman army camp Carnuntum this summer during our trip. Do we have your permission to travel now? ;)
 
Sure, just bring me a souvenir ;)

BTW, YAY :D I got an email saying:

Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS

On June 4, 2007, we received your response to our request for evidence. We will notify you by mail when we make a decision or if we need something from you. If you move while this case is pending, call customer service. Blah blah blah...

So now, let's just wait... some more :)

No email updates

Is it normal for the USCIS to forget to send email updates ? I'm not getting any even after i opted for it twice although when i check on the website,case has been updated.

BTW Praetorian,i didnt think people know the background when they chose screen names.....you are one knowledgeable guy:)

You will get an email notification when they receive it and resume your case (or a day after, like in my case) if you only sent it yesterday you are being unpatient... give it a week or two. :cool:

Has the message on the I-485 has changed from "received and pending" ? if not I would not expect any e-mails. I think they only send emails (automatically maybe) when the message changes.

I have heard that sometimes the information on the online status is not up-to-date. So, I would not worry... but I would call my DO and inquire about the status of that I-485 if I were you.

Well, I have had 3 LUDs on my I-485 and I-130. But only received 1 email. For the RFE received.

My bet is, that they only email you when the "message" on your case changes... like mine, from "case received and pending" to "rfe received and case processing resumed".

So that may be why? :cool:
