INS mailed my FP notice on Dec.12,2003. My attorney received the notice but I didn't because of my address change. The online message was still showing the old message as of Dec.28 and my attorney didn't open the mail that they received from INS until Jan.9th. Meanwhile the online status was updated on Jan 29th with an RFE notice. I called my attorney on Jan 9th to say about the online message. Then she was going through my files and found out that she had received the FP2 notice. She told me that I had to appear at INS on Jan.12th which is the following Monday. So I had only one working day i.e friday to get the FP2 notice from my attorney. She mailed me the notice on Thursday and I received it on Friday and I gave my finger prints on 12th Jan. I also answered the RFE. Ofcourse my attorney asked for an apolozy for what she did. But anyway my case is finally approved on Jan. 29th. That was pretty quick. I still can't digest this news because I was not expecting approval this soon.
So watch out ! You need to follow up constantly with INS as well as your attorney.
I wish you best of luck.
