vali said:I received the emails today that I485 was approved for me but not for my spouse. Is this normal?
antonioa77 said:congrats,
any idea why ur i485 was a little late? were u stuck in namecheck or what?
vali said:My name check was pending until 3 months ago and during this time all my applications (140,765,131,485) were onhold.
antonioa77 said:how did u know that ur namecheck was stuck?
when ur namecheck was initiated and when it was cleared? from which country r u?
how common is ur name?
did u do anythin to clear ur name?
vali said:When I took an infopass appointment to get the interim EAD I found out that all applications were onhold due to name check. I am from Eastern Europe and my name is not common. I did nothing to clear the name check other than to inquiry when the applications were outside processing dates.
antonioa77 said:so can u tell me when exactly ur namecheck was cleared? maybe they told u in the infopass. did they tell u when it was even initiated? i'm trying to c how long namecheck takes sometimes if u r stuck.
by the way, ead and AP and i140 are independent of whether ur namecheck got cleared or not.
vali said:I thought the same but it seems there are (few) cases where a pending name check can keep everything on hold.
I can only aproximate that the name check was cleared mid September.
antonioa77 said:but u said that u did an infopass 3 motnhs and they told u that ur namecheck was pending still. so the infopass was in sep. but how u knew then after that also in september ur namecheck got cleared? sory but i'm interested in knowing how this stupid namecheck thing works.
vali said:Antonioa77,
I perfectly understand your frustration with the entire process. Unfortunately the name check experiences differ greatly from person to person. I can range from 1 day to 2-3 years and it seems there is no discernable pattern. One thing is sure though - once you are out of name check you'll get the GC in about 1-3 months.
My last infopass was in August when I was told that my name check was still pending.
gc_rush said:Primary case was approved today from NSC. Dep case received RFE. When we called 1 week back we were told that both name checks were cleared and the cases were with officer and we should hear in 30 days. So looks like they actually kept that word.
Now the wait for the RFE.....
antonioa77 said:congrats,
any idea when the namecheck got cleared?
gc_rush said:The namechk for the primary cleared in a couple of days of applying. For the dep, it was pending, till 2 months back. So probably cleared in 4-6 months since applying.

gc_rush said:No idea what the RFE was about. How long does it take to receive the RFE? Even I am looking to find out how long we have to respond.
