We belong to an unlucky group. Perhaps our files are in nowhere in the service center, perhaps they are in a lazy and disorderly hand, or sitting in the wrong place, or behind that big trash can in the corner. Anyway, there are unreachable to the processing officers, and have a strong tendency to remain so for indefinite period.
Please contact IIO or your congressmen to voice our concern. Wake up our files and documents in oblivion, or lose them forever.
 
senators

I spoke to someone at the local senator office here and learnt that they have dedicated resource for immigration related issues. I have the feeling that when we do so, we will mostly end up with a RFE. NSC can simply use the excuse to come up with thousand of reasons, like I140 not filed in the same service center, RFE for medical, employment, etc.

I am here not against people to contact senators. I was in the middle of decision wether want to write the letter to the seneator or simply wait for another few weeks.

If you looked at the history of approval, NSC did span the approving among several months period. A lucky one got approval few months ahead of the other. I believe NSC assigned cases(could be one in a month, I guess) to different officers and some officers were damp lazy and of course the supervisors or the management was as bad as Kmart\'s managment. I am worrried that NSC will eventually file the chapter 7 bankruptcy in the near furture and say bye-bye to our cases!

write to NSC

My lawyer wrote a letter to NSC early Dec 2001 and until now have not heard anything from INS. They could have tossed the letter
 
Re: write to NSC

IT_engineer has about the same ND. He got RFE and returned it. Still got approved before us. I am not afraid of RFE, just afraid of my materials being tossed away. It did happen to a friend of mine.

Question for AUG/SEPT/OCT 2000 I 485 waiters!!!

It is really surprised to see people who have applied much after us are getting their approvals. Well, I have a question , did any of us have changed our status here in USA, like B1 to F1 to H1 B Status, is it could be one of the reasons our files are getting delayed in approvals.

For example: I came on B1/B2 got converted to H1B status, BUT I WAS NOT OUT OF STATUS EVEN FOR A SINGLE DAY. I AM ALWAYS IN STATUS.

Any suggestions are welcome !!
You all can see my details in the same thread, couple of messages above under RAMUKESI
 
Most chinese change their status

Generally, we came here with F1(or F2, if her/his spouse came here first). And got a Master or PhD degree, started work on PT and switched to H1. That\'s may be different from some Indians. But it doesn\'t matter, since no Chinese was rejected for changing status problem.
 
Thanks, NAYBLASHCAR

I apprecaite your response, I am from India, came on B1/B2 visa, changed to H1B, and never out of status, even for a day. The reason for asking this question because, changing status here, will delay in approving our I485 cases. A friend of mine who came on H1B directly from India, got his I 485 approved with in a year just 365 days. I am just trying to compare who have not got their approvals will or may fall in my CATEGORY.
Thanks,
ramukesi
 
Suggestion

If senators office not too helpful, contact local congressmans office. The all have assigned immigration liason officers who are supposed to help constituents with INS related matters. Call/fax/mail the person designated that is teh only way to get any info, calling INS/writing/or getting lawyer to write INS rarely worth effort.

RD - July 2000
ND - Aug 2000

Congratulations! Since you\'ve already got RFE, it was anticipated you would get it quickly.
