Folks, I've found useful info reading this site; so I'm posting this question here...
Background: My 485 (based on EB3 LC) was filed in Feb/06 and 1st EAD/AP approvals were received in Apr/06. In Sep, I got an RFE for birth cert (I read that its quite usual for applicants from India) and my wife got RFE for additional info establishing legal status for few months (which she has). We sent RFE response for both on Oct/15 and USCIS online site reports that the response was received by them on Oct/18.

Questions:
- Today's the 60th day since response was recvd at USCIS but online site still reports no updates since Oct/21; only usual info about waiting for 60 days. If my lawyer sends inquiry to USCIS asking about current status, is that bad?
- Can I assume that because I recvd RFE, the FBI name check would have already been completed? If not, how can I check this? The reason I ask: message on USCIS online site initially stated - '... However because preliminary processing was complete, the remaining processing time will be less than the maximum stated in this message...'
