Congrats! Enjoy freedom. Also it's good to see that they didn't ask you to appear for FP again even though your FP seems to be expired.

Longer than century

Am still waiting for I485 approval. Got 2nd FP notice today (the 1st FP was in Nov 2004), 23 months after 1st FP. Is this sign of any movement in my case or just another cycle and somepone has run a job to kill some tree and produce some paper in service center? :confused:

My RFE was received on Oct 10. Saw LuD on 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15. and then nothing. Called VSC. they said "it looks it is being reviewed". Hope I can get some good soon.

PD is available in Oct.06.

485 RD March, 2005.



60 days passed after they received my RFE. There are still no good news. I call national service center. They said they will issue a query and I can expect an answer within 45 days. It seems another endless waiting began. :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Anybody has contacted national servce center for status query? when do you expect to receive a result? :rolleyes:
 
I am on the same boat. RFE received Oct 05, 06. still no answer. I also called service center and asked an inqury.

Body, I called NSC 1800# on 18DEC06 and they said the same, still gave me a confirmation #. Nothing untill now (53 days). They r not working at all. I think it`s `cause nothing has changed since my last inquiry when I was told that my case is outside of USCIS and they r waiting the investigations results. I`m almost quitting from this blind game.

So, did they respond your inquery?
each time we asked an inquery, they asked us to wait for 45 days and then say "do not hesitate to contact again ater 45 days.". How many 45 days we have?

I also contact senator for help. Hope he can get some update and find out what is my case status? what they are waiting for? Maybe name check? since I have been stuck in name check since July last year.

No, the one that I got a response was in APR06 (6 mo letter). :eek:
 
I just checked my email. I was very surprised to see this case update. 3 same emails saying that new card ordered. What does this means? Senator office told me today that VSC will transfer my case to local office. Hope this is true and this is the end of my journey. I filed I485 in March 05. EB2.

By the way, I did not receive the approval notice or update. Is this normal?

Below is my current case status:
