FBI Name Check

I got a notification from USCIS that my card has been ordered. I applied for the Adjustment of Status 2 years ago. A small note: before they approved my case, I had to go to local Application Support center and had to give fingerprint again.
 
my infopass experience today

Hi All,
Today I had an infopass appointment. The information officer was surprisingly very nice and informative at Newark District Office. I went there with the new memo but I found out that they don’t have my case at that district office, because I moved from NYC after my interview. Although I changed the address, the NYC never transferred my case to Newark. So the officer filed a request for my case to be transferred from New York. I also asked her if she heard about the new memo and she said yes. Then I asked her what happens after they receive my case. She said they will review it and most likely call us for another interview.
I think this explains allot about why I didn't receive anything after March 10th. She also told me that Newark district office is processing all the cases that have been pending with name check for more than 180 days and ones they receive my file, then it will be processed.
I made another infopass appointment for NYC where currently my file is. My appointment is for April 3rd. I will go there to make sure that they send my file to Newark.
 
Hi,
My questionis pertaining to the 2nd finger printing, with the new memo. Does it mean that my case ( I485 ) is been processed and maybe soon my G card will be in the mail. Can I get your input on this.

05/2006 filed I 485
06/2006 Fp
03/05/2008 2nd Fp
 
chetaboy, you will get your card soon, hopefully. I did my 2nd fingerprint last month, yesterday I got an approval email saying the welcome letter was sent on 3/17. Good luck to everyone!

Here is my timeline:
10/2006 filed I 485
11/2006 Fp
1/17/07 interview pending background check
02/23/2008 2nd Fp
3/17/08 received welcome letter
 
My second Fingerprint was on 1st March. I received the green card notification on March 20th. So it is just a matter of time. Hang in there Cheatboy.
 
Finally over! Just received the "card production ordered" email!

If anyone's been following my case, I had gotten approved under the new memo, but my info didnt get updated at NBC (for about 30 days). I had sent a letter to the district director director last week. Dont know if that had anything to do with it.

I was being proactive about it since at an infopass appt, the IO told me you may have to wait for a while, till they get to it.

Anyways, congrats to those also received theirs.

If you havent received yours, my experience has been: be proactive, write letters every other week if you have to, make infopass appointments. Luckily now they can't just tell us, "well, its in FBI's hands, we can't do anything". It is in their hands now, and they certainly can approve, even if the name check is pending.
 
Hi sak7777,
Can you tell me, what your timeline is and if you went to AOS for 2nd finger printing.
Congrat on your journey so far!!!!!!!!!
 
Thanks Chetaboy,
I added a signature, so you can see my timeline. I did not have to go for fingerprints again. Good luck!
 
There's no official policy on how many times you can go for an InfoPass.
As long as the IIOs at InfoPass don't start calling you by your first name ..

that is what happened on my appointment yesterday , the security at the office said " hey I know You" :D, he was the one who let me in for appointment before...

have a question for you guys.....
i got the approval letters today, one for I131, one for I485.
on the I485 notice, it said i am getting a 10-year greencard. does that mean that i am not getting the conditional 2 yr greencard?
i got married with a usc on nov, 2005, filed everything on dec, 2005. interview on june, 2006, I130 approved at the interview, got the emails last week and letters this week.

when can i apply for citizenship?
