The weekly updates from "sbctsublc" and "DJC0" [FORUM: Tracker, I-485, Vermont Service Center – THREAD: VSC I485 Fiscal Yr 2002 - Progress Reports] suggest that as of March 5th, only 35% of I-485 cases with Notice Dates in January 2002 have been completed/approved.
For Feb 2002 ND's the number is even smaller i.e. 25.7% of the cases and for March 2002 Notice Dates, only 16.7% of the cases have been approved.
The RUPNET database also suggests similar numbers.
It’s been exactly 6 months since my 2nd fingerprinting and I am anxiously waiting for an end to this nightmare like everyone else.
