WAC-03-111-5**** Approved!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is my first post here, as I am a silent observer for quite a while. This forum does help me a lot!

Just give you guys another data point. We got the approval email this morning (Sunday) at 9:02am, and I just checked the USCIS website to confirm it. Looks like they are working during weekend (as I do:) to get all the backlog cases through.

I applied for the EB1-OR (forgot the I-140 approval date but should be around the end of 2002). We didn't do con-current at all, as the lawyer said it didn't help.

My LUD history is 6/18, 7/9, 7/12, 7/17 (approval date). My wife's LUD history is only 6/18 and 7/17 (approval date). No RFE, two APs and EADs for both my wife and myself.

We did the FP on 4/26/03 and it will expire on 7/26/04. I did send the 1st level fax inquiry about the status of I485, after reading another guy's post here (also around WAC03111) about it helps to send fax inquiry as the FP is expiring. I think the fax did help the case.

Wish you guys good luck!! Now I am planning a trip back to China:)

FP: 03/04 (for both)

Approved! Thanks to Almighty!

Hi all,

I have been a new participant to this forum. Got a lot of wonderful information and support ever since I joined! Thanks to one and all who sent us words of support and encouragement.

This is a wonderful place indeed.

I just checked my status online just a few minutes ago and found that we (my husband, me and our son) have been approved on the 19th of july.

Went throguh a rough time and I can certainly believe that God has been good to us.

Now I will be anxious to receive the notice.

Can anyone please advice me of what the next step is?

With much appreciation.

Perplexed!

My I-485 got approved on July 19th (WAC031395xxxx )

My I-485 got approved on July 19th (WAC031395xxxx )

Here are the details:
EB3 case, concurrent filing (I-485 filed couple of months after I-140 filing), used AC21
1 FP, 1 AP and 1 EAD
I-485 Filed- 04/01/03, Approved-07/19/04
I-140 Filed-12/05/02, Approved-11/04/03
Fingerprint received on 05/01/03

I had changed job after 13 months of I-485 filing (which was 6 months after I-140 approval). Some people suggested not to file AC21 unless requested by USCIS, but I voluntarily filed AC21.

My AC21 mail included the following (mailed on 7/6/04):
1) AC21 letter from me
2) Employment verification letter from current employer
3) Most recent 3 pay stubs
4) Company’s 2003 Annual report
5) Change of address request letter from me
6) Change of address request letter from my wife
7) Copy of I-140 approval notice (sponsored by my previous employer)
8) Copy of my I-485 receipt notice
9) Copy of my wife's I-485 receipt notice
10) Copy of my current valid EAD (as I am using it)

Here are the online LUDs or file movement track:
My I-485: 07/14/04, 07/20/04 (Approved on 07/19/04)
My wife’s I-485: 07/14/04, 07/16/04

I am the principal applicant. My wife’s application was filed with me, fingerprinting was also done with me, but still pending. Don’t know why. The only reason I can think of is… her medical was not 100% done because of pregnancy. Don’t know yet what should we do about that. Online doesn’t mention about RFE or anything yet.
