what does it means
Our jurisdiction is origianlly NSC. Our 2nd PERM based EB2 140/485 filed at Nebraska went to TSC with receipts of SRC.
Today we got this message, any advise folks. I was following TSC tracker average approval their was between 3-4 months.
On August 11, 2006, we transferred your I485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status to an office in LINCOLN, NE for processing. Our office in LINCOLN, NE will send you a written decision as soon as processing is complete. You should receive a notice informing you that your case has been transferred to a local office.

Name check
i'm just wondering about what is exactly the name check? is the name check done for the AOS the same as the one done when we apply to the H1-B visa in the consulate?

EB2 vs. EB3
I have an employer who just filed for PERM EB3 for me. My labor certificate was issued 1 week after it was submitted. Now I am going to file for I140 but my attorney said that there's a year backlog on I485. This means I could potentially not be able to work til a year to a year and a half from now?
So, I got this other firm interested in hiring me, and they're willing to file for EB2/Perm. Is EB2 significantly faster than EB3? Am I going to waste my time to switch to EB2. Also, if I get this firm to do EB2 case for me, can I still keep the EB3 going at the same time, or do I have to give the EB3 case up?
Please help.. I just can't afford to be in limbo for a year...

anyone got a news of I485 lately from NSC? it seems NSC is not processing I485 lately. if by luck ur application ends up in TSC then u get approved in 4 to 5 months whereas in NSC it seems it takin a year. right?
It depends which country are you from. If you are from any country other than India and China, then you could file EB2 based I-45/I-485 concurrently because EB2 is current for every country except India and China. If you use EB3 then you have to wait for a very long time unfortunately.... many years i guess regardless of the country.
I hope it helps.

485 approved today
I got my 485 approved today.
"On October 2, 2006, a welcome notice was mailed for this case. If 30 days have passed and you have not received this notice. Please call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283 during business hours."
My I-140 got approved on Sept 15th, so this is only 2 weeks after.

No, I didn't actually. I checked my account on USCIS pretty regularly, but it hadn't changed since sometime in July I think. It might have changed in the last 5 days, I didn't check online. (they don't send mails for LUD changes apparently). Then again, it was only 15 days since my I-140 approval.

I did a google search and found a site suggesting the following alternatives:
* Take Infopass appointment and ask the officer (best option)
* Call USCIS and ask to speak to an Immigration Officer.
* Send email to FBINNCP@ic.fbi.gov
* Send fax to FBI
* Call FBI: 304-625-5590 or 304-625-2406
* Contact your local senator
* Contact your congressman
* Use Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)

I think I will wait for a reasonable time (30-45 days maybe) to give a chance for the process to work 'on its own' and avoid any unnecessary panicking.
I think I have heard or read somewhere that it was not advisable to 'bug the FBI unnecessarily'. I will enjoy my I-140 approval and wait a while before I start worrying about the status of my name check.
