My 485/EAD/AP is on its way to NSC. Did any of you filed you 485 lately????
any idea hows the time for EB-1EA 485 in NSC???

Onemore question, does EB1 get faster processing then EB2 AND EB3? I read it in the 485 forum, is i true???

anyone in the same boat? or about the file 485?????
 
Hi,
tipotodo

My understanding is that it is faster because of less # of applicants with respect to available visa numbers (in EB1). EB2 and EB3 usually it is the other way round. Hence people will wait for priority date to be current before they can advance to 485 stage, hence the whole process appears to be long compared to EB1. Again this is with FBI background check not in the equation, if you add it to the equation, even though you have all your application in good shape, USCIS might pre-adjudicate your case, but it will wait till they receive info from FBI. FBI will not consider if it is EB1 or 2 or 3, they look at the application and it will follow the line, so in my understanding FBI is the universal equalizer of all the applications. In my latest reading there are 440K name to be screened, for background check.
Just an observation, not to scare you with this info, as an exception, there are cases where people got it in two or three weeks. I have no idea how that works?
wish you all the best in the second stage of GC

Thank you for your response, it makes sense, it all comes to the backgroudn check, we shall see, i just have to wait now.

thanx again
 
so my I-485/EAD/AP are on their way, i hope luck is on my side. One question about NC, does having a Hispanic last name makes NC take longer????
 
It doesn't matter what is your last name. FBI name check can be problem for anybody whoever has a "hit" in their system.
 
Just go to FBI website and search for the name check page. You can see how they process. It is not just the last name, it is a combination of first name, last name and last name and first name and also middle name. So it would be a factorial calculation in terms of # of possible combination on which name check is done, at least that is my understanding. It is clearly mentioned in one of the top guys testimony to senate committee ( I believe ), I don't remember his name, but is available on FBI website.
good luck

Is a name check different from a background check? How does it work? After name check is cleared, your background check also needs to be cleared? I've heard previous speeding tickets etc could come up in background checks!!!

Is int it the same thing?? NC and Background check??
 
Is this name check the same as the kind of name and finger print check they do at the consulates when you go to get a visa stamp? I have heard of a few of my friends who had "hits" when they went to get their visa stamped and had to wait for 6-8 months for that to b cleared by FBI.... Any comments.....

I don't know if its the same or not, but I have heard of people gettin stuck in the consulates when gettting a visa because of their name matched someone on the list... but it also involves date of brith too, who knows, i jsut hope i don't get stuck, I have hispanic last names....we shall see...

My 485/EAD/AP was delivered today, I hope they keep it in TSC , we shall see...
 
So my 140 got approved at NSC, me and my attoreny played dumb and send my 485/EAD/AP to TSC and they actually took it, i got the noticies and some LUD's i know they can STILL transfer it to NSC, but since my 140 is approved is an easy case, i hope they just keep it, will see.
 
Tipodo, how did you check your LUD's...is it when you log in your receipt number on USCIS website...could you please elaborate..

Tx

Hi kku, just go the USCIS website and do a portafolio, and it lists the last update in your case. just go to: check status online, then go to do a portafolio and just add the receipt numbers.

good luck
 
Tipotodo, that's great news!!!

So you have receipt notices from Texas? Did they assign case numbers? And why did it take that long: I see that the received date is 02/07 but you only knew on 02/16? Is 02/07 the notice date?

I am sorry for so many questions, but I want Texas too!!!

One last question: do you happen to know the address to send the package with I-485/I-765/I-131? I want to use FedEx or USPS Express mail.

Thank you, and wish you luck!

Yeap all my receipt notices and numbers are from Texas SRC. It didn't take that long, my attorney was of her office because of the snow this week. The RD is 2/7 and the ND 2/8. She gave me the numbers yesterday.

with regards to the address I have no idea, but I can ask her, she did sent it via fedex.

You should do it too, like i said in the other post, my attorney said that EB1 are easy, so if they get them in TSC they''ll just do it there.

worst case scenario they just send it back to NSC.

good luck!!!!! let me know what you decied to do
 
Thank you tipotodo for your quick answer!

I found an address for courier delivery:

USCIS TSC
4141 St. Augustine Rd.
Dallas, TX 75227

So if nobody chimes in with a better solution I will probably send the package to this address and mark the envelope ORIGINAL SUBMISSION CONCURRENT FILLING I-485/I-765/I-131.

I'll probably send the package on Tuesday or Wednesday, provided we get the approval notice in the mail by then.

Let me ask my lawyer and i'll let you know. Isnt the TSC is in mexquite,TX?

Yes, the mailing address is Mesquite, Texas, except for Premium Processing requests and Courier mail which go to Dallas. This is from their website, see the link:

http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/us...nnel=52a46c854523d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCRD

I wonder if they will keep the case at Texas, or it will get transferred later on to Nebraska. Does your lawyer have experience with this (did she do it successfully before?)

yeahm that's why we did it, she said most of eb1 cases are simple so they just dont even bother to transfer them, but I mean the worst case senario is taht they send it to NSC.

I am just happy all my stuff is in TSC, i just need more then anything to get my EAD soon and the TSC time for EAD is usually 20 days, so we shall see.

Well good luck, and he us posted!

:D
 
Well, good luck to you too! I am really looking forward to seeing that you get your EAD approval as soon as possible! :)

And please let me know if you find out the address from your lawyer!
