Just checked my e-mail and saw an approval notice from USCIS. Case was approved on August 13th. I received a fingerprint notice asking me to appear at Oakland on September 1st. Instead I went to San Jose Charcot for early FP on Aug 4th.

Thanks to everyone on this great forum!

Hi Arsene,

Did you walkin to the chatcot office directly?. How did
you approach as we also would like to go to this office
prior to appointment date.

Thanks in advance for your information.

Hi All,

Wanted to share this news with all of you that all our cases (Wife, daughter and myself) have been approved on September 16, 2004 as per online status check and email from USCIS. Still waiting for the approval letter though.

It was a very cumbersome journey, but would like to thank all of you guys on this board for being there and helping everyone.

God bless you all and I pray that those waiting should also get the approval soon.

My case details
WAC 02-093-56***
485 RD: 17th January, 2002
485 ND: 23 January, 2002
2nd Fingerprinting done on Jan end 2004
Unusual RFE in May end for: 1. Geographic Information, 2. Maintenance of Status etc.
RFE reply received by USCIS on June 11, 2004
Asked the lawyer to put in a query and the lawyer called up USCIS on 08/18 and they said wait for 30 days...usual stuff.
I was expecting another RFE but by God's grace got approved within 30 days of the query.

Thanks once again everyone.

There was an RFE on my case for my birth certificate. My lawyer submitted my BC and also AC21 form along with it. INS has recvd the documents on 15-sep-2004. The case update says my type of cases takes anywhere between 660 days. Is this the standard message that they give everybody or ?????.
 
Hi Mango_pickle,

I am new to this site. I have couple of questions.

1. How can I check the case status (I-485) ?
[All these days I was just relying on my lawyer to get the status]

2. What is LUD?

I would appreciate your kind response.

Thanks
