#29, ensure, WAC02072 got approved

It's been a long journey to me. I'm surprised that I got approved when I almost gave up checking status every day.

WAC020725xxxx

ND: 12/27/01
1st FP: 03/xx/02
RFE issued: 12/11/03
RFE rev'd: 02/25/04
2nd FP: 04/28/04
Approved: 05/12/04

After RFE, I didn't get 2nd FP notice at all. I was asking attorney to fax query to request 2nd FP. Not sure if this is the reason, I did get FP notice the week after query. I did an early FP in oakland. The case was updated on 04/28/04 after FP.

On 05/11/04, the case was touched but with no update. This morning, I check the status again, Case was touched again and actually, it's got approved.

Thanks everyone for the help past couple years. Now, I just wait for the 2nd FP notice for my wife. Her WAC is WAC02162xxxxx. Hopefully, she can get approved soon.

My case was approved 05/12/04 and status updated on 05/13/04. Strange coincidence that I heard the good news the day I bring my new born daughter back from the hospital. Thanks to everyone and good luck with everything.

#33, get_a_life, I-485 WAC03006XXXXX application approved.

Hi Folks,

We filed EB2 I-140 and I-485 concurrently in the month of Oct 2002 on the same day. Our I-485 applications (myself and my wife) have been approved today.

This forum has been an excellent(can not find a better word to describe it) source of immigration Information. Many individuals (PCEE, Kashmir , Cinta , dsatish, sillyman and so many to name here) have done exceptional work in gathering and disseminating information. This is the forum where I really understood the true meaning of "community" (to laugh , feel other's anger, providing a mechanism to vent our feelings and so on). Our hearty thanks to all the present, past , visible and invisible folks. On my part, my contribution has been very very minimal to none except for few posts here and there. Rajiv inspires me(and I guess, all of us) all the time of what professionalism and leadership is all about.

Being a WAC03 applicant, I understand very well that we don't deserve a speedy, out of sequence adjudication process at the cost of pending old applicants although , every byte of our heart was looking for luck. I think, the luck came through and I wish everyone receives their fair share.

I wish everyone all the best in their quest for permanent residenship and career achivement. Wish you all good luck.
