Consolidated Tracker - 2003 Filers

Folks,

During the 140 phase, we used a single tracker for the year 2003, where in everyone who had filed for 140 /485 included their info.- It was very useful to have one single place to look into!

The current file has a lot of good info and people have been religiously updating it. Please follow the guidelines in the file.

ps: Credit goes to someone else (I can't remember who?) for creating the file... check the 140 - VSC forum!
 
I-485 Approval....

Folks,

Finally, after almost 4 years, I received the notice of action informing
me about the I-485 petition approval. :D

Thanks to all of you for sticking by..... and Best of luck to everyone
in the queue!! - Persevere with patience and it will pay off!!

Last but definitely not the least,
a BIG "THANK YOU" for Rajiv Khanna and his team
for guiding and assisting us thru this process.

You have created an awesome rescource that has helped us in
trying times - Kudos!!!


Please note the change in procedure for getting the stamp in
the passport.


Since Sep 1st 2004, We have to get an appointment to appear at
the USCIS office for the stamp. Here is the website::

http://infopass.uscis.gov

The format of the photograph that needs to be submitted has changed
too. It has to be a regular picture - straight faced postion
and NOT the 3/4th angled profile.

ps:As usual I am not a lawyer, so please verify all statements!! ;)
 
Moderator: please make this thread a sticky and lock other threads?

Can we lock all the separate tracker threads (here and in the I-485 forum) and make this thread a sticky?

As was the case in the I-140 forums, having all the information for each year consolidated is a good idea IMO but unless we lock the other threads and direct people to this one, those other threads will continue to be updated...

Is it true it's taking less time for 485 approval after FP is done since Aug 2004.

Guys: is there a change in activity or posting after your FP? also, anybody here have any idea as to how long it takes after first fp nowadaya? mine was non-concurrent.
 
A similar question....

When USCIS sends us the notice for FP will there be a change in the status like they mailed notice for FP or some thing like that...

For *many* people (I hesitate to say *most* because I don't know if this is the case) the LUD will change within about 6 days and the message will change to "FP received...". For some, the LUD / message might never change right up to and including their approval.

These days, it's very hard to determine with any accuracy how long it takes to get approval after your first FP. For my ND (10/23/04) I'm figuring I could be lucky and get approved within a month or this could take 8-12 months or longer depending on how unlucky I am. I did my first FP about 4 weeks ago.

For many people the message doesn't change when the FP is sent (mine never did but it changed when the FP was received back at the VSC).
