Do you have a case like what you've said and you got a RFE ?

In that case, NSC is touching your case :)

btw, all of the service centers have maintained that they will continue to process cases even when numbers are not available -- they will process the case upto the point where you need a number - then it will stop and wait for Oct or whenever.

yeah - as the other poster asked, what's your PD and your 485 RD or ND ?

Pl see my signature for PD... Looks like a long long way to go for my 485...

Yes NSC says that they will continue to work on files -- even if there are no visa numbers ... but then they should be a significant population of guys who should have got some RFE already...

But that does not seem to be the case...

Anyway lets wait till Oct this.

eBhola,

I am in the same situation as you're except that I haven't gotten any RFE on my I-485. However, I received an email from the local congressment stating my name check has been cleared and my FP is still valid. They said NSC is waiting on the visa number availability to adjudicate my I-485.

It may be because of your PD. I happen to read somewhere that PD before July 2002 for EB3 cases are being approved as visa numbers are available.

I think they probably already allocated a visa number for your case since you sent the response to the RFE in June.

hey waitingfor_gc,

You had mentioned that your 485 got approved on 08/24/05!! Did the 485 approved message says you have to wait so and so date to get your card?? As everyone knows EB3 is unavailable for all countries now so looks like USCIS is just approving and sending cards later once the visa is available?

Thx
 
sanjose72,

It does not say anything like that, but may be they will send the card after october 1st.

but the online message shows like this:

This case has been approved. On August 24, 2005, an approval notice was mailed. If 14 days have passed and you have not received this notice, you may wish to verify or update your address. To update your address, please call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283.

Processing 485.

Although USCIS claims that -- they will continue to process the 485 of retro afftected countries, even there are no visa numbers ...
But it does not appear to be true...

It looks like they have stopped after PD -May 2002.. for EB3's. May 2002 stems from the fact that there are no RFE's after that.....

Whats Ur thought on this?
 
Nadi,

I totally agree with you and it's very true NSC has stopped processing 485's and is expected to begin (hopefully) the processing in October. I even got an email from the local congressment that my case is waiting on an visa number and will be adjudicated as soon as it's available as my namecheck has been cleared and FP is still valid.

How does this go --- regarding retrogression and cut-off dates..

Is USCIS in consultation with the State Department to release the dates and visa number..? or State Department does this all independently..
