Chicago Local Transfer Interviews

Hi,

Is anybody has lately interview experience? I haven't received interview letter yet.Next week i am planing to see congreesman office. :mad:
 
Hi,
My I-485 receipt date is also Oct. 2002.
In August, INS transfered my I485 to an office in CHICAGO, IL for
processing.
In September, I received my second finger print notice and submitted my FP.
Any idea how long it's going to take from this period onwards to get my GC.
I also heard that there is a distinct possibility that I will be called for personal interview. Does this happen in all cases. Pls. advise.

sadiradm / taruwish / windseeker,

Please update if any of you get any interview calls ? It is very helpful for the rest of people.

My Case Details:
I-485 Receipt Date (VSC) : 12/12/2002
I-485 Transfer Date : 8/15/2004


Looks like it is taking about 8 Months for approval in Chicago after the case is transferred. Am i Right ?

june2002rd,

I think they are going by original notice date + 26 months at chicago. So you should be close.

My notice date is around 12/2002

transferred case

mine and my wife's case got transferred to local office, Chicago IL today.

Here are my details..

PD May 18/2002 (EB2)
I-140 AD - DEC 15 2002
RD JAN 9/2003
TD DEC 22/2004

NO RFE's till date.

The chicago transfer case thread cases seem to be fragmented.. is this the right thread that everyone updates.

I believe it is a long wait for local office transfers..any one's got any interview dates off late..
 
better tracking

In an effort to better track i am compiling the information gleaned from this thread.. can we keep updating this on an ongoing basis so it is easier for us to track.

ur cooperation is appreciated.

chicago local transfer updates

have u guys enquired if ur name check is completed.

i have sent a mail to the fbi's email id, a month back not received any response. I heard it takes one - two months for them to respond. some of my freinds have got the response after 1.5 months. so be patient if u have already sent an email

williget - considering ur transfer was a long time back, and ur receipt date of May 2002, is ur namecheck done? have u tried talking to a congressman ? enquired with Chicago localoffice by taking an appoitnment using infopass?

Give them atleast 1-2 months for responding. My friend got a reply after 1.5 months.
 
FBI Name Check

Hi Everbody

Our case was transferred to Local Office in Chicago in October 2004.

We were called for interview which we attended yesterday. It lasted about 30 minutes during which the

officer went thru both our files and asked us questions about job, status, dates and port of last last

entry to US, looked at our latest employment letter, tax returns and birth certificates. At the end she

told that she has not received clearance for my name from FBI nut the name check for my wife is complete.

She told us to that we would receive our green cards in mail once my my name check is cleared. She also

mentioned that my wife may also have to go thru fingerprinting again (if my clearance if not received by

then) after July 2005 since her earlier ones are valid till July only.

So guys I think that this was good but I have some queries which I am posting here. Please reply or PM me

your thoughts on the following:

1) Is this normal for them to not receive the FBI name check. Is there any stipulated time period that

FBI shoudl send them the name check.

2) I had already had 2nd FP in Jan 2005. The first FP was in Feb 2003 . Does this mean that when my FP

was done in Feb 2003, the INS would have received my name check from FBI but since this I-485 has long

wait, they gaian got my FP doen and would seek another FBI name check report from FBI. Does this make

sense???. That's what I have been thinking since yesterday that if my name check would not cleared after

first FP, then I would have received some intimation from them.

3) Is their any mechanism to track the name check clearance by FBI. Or is there any mechanism to findout

that how many times our name check has been cleared by FBI. I have seen in some threads to write to FBI

vial snail mail/email. Which one is better and quicker.


4) I have read in some forums about welcome letter. What is it?

5) I have the impression that physical Green card takes 3-4 months. So even if the INS officer receives

my FBI name check cleared, then also it would be only after 3-4 months that I would come to know that

mine green card has been approved.???

Any other comments by you guys are welcomed.

For me: RD/PD October 2002
1st FP-Feb2003
