Hi All,
I was not expecting it at all, but saw the approval notices in mail today!!. I had several issues along the way (much like many others) and I got several suggestions from this group. Thanks to all, especially Ciba.

I had my FP done at ASC San Jose on 3/13/01 and they were cleared from FBI on 3/18/01. My I-485 Approval Notice date is 3/23/01. Incredible!!!

Ciba, please update your list. I am already on your tracker.
Here are the details again, anyway.
PD: 06/99 EB2 RIR India.
I-140 Approval 07/00
I-485 ND: 10/24/00
FP at San Jose : 3/13/01, cleared on 3/18/01.
I-485 Approval Date: 3/23/01. (both my wife and I)

Good Luck to all. I stared my GC application in 96, and the labor application got kicked back twice!! Almost gave up at one time....
Regards

Congrats..s_satya..
Your transition from FP to "The Approval", seems to be one of the fastest, seen in the recent times (10 Calendar days ???);
Good job, CSC;

Hi s_satya,

Congratulations on the approval. Ten day apart between finger prints
and approval is indeed incredible! I have updated your case in the
latest tracking lists posted this past weekend. Thanks for sharing
the good news and good luck for a great future ahead.

S_satya,

Why did it take you 4 months after the approval of I-140 to file for I485. Just curious

Hi KG0013,
Good question as to why it took 4 months between I140 approval and filing. Our corporate immigration dept. and our lawyers together are worse than INS. They have their own procedures and timelines.
I was prompt in giving all the docs but they took too much time..

Hi S_satya,

It all sounds very familiar. I am a victim of similar circumstances.

It is finally over for you now. Congratulations !!

I am also a victim of corporate lawyers. They finally filed 485 after more than 4 months of 140 approval. I repeated calling and emailing them but they just ignored me. I got outrageous and threatened to take stronger action. This time they listened and filed 485.
