EB3 NSC approval

I got my approval notice yesterday. I actually checked with an immigration officer on 6/18 (infopass appt.) and was told that my case was previewed and is pending to be assigned to an immigration officer. I got the approval the following day (I don't this was a result of my inquiry).

My details:

EB3 Labor RIR (Apr 2003) NSC
I140/I485 Concurrrent filing in NSC RD Jan 2004
I485 approval notice on 06/19 11.55 a.m.

Best of luck to everyone waiting for their approval.
 
Did any of you folks had depenedents and they were also approved? or not?

I am worried about my spouse as what I have observed from different threads on this forum that if all dont get approved together, it can sometimes take years for spouse to get thru.

Mine was approved last Friday.

Anyone is such a situation? or not?
 
It is raining green card approvals this week... Most of the cases have PD Sep2002 to April2003. (EB3).

Poor folks who have their PD in 2001 and 2002 and applying for I-485 this month. They will have to wait 1-2 more years.

You need lot of luck to get thru this....

I did not have any dependents
 
Once your priority date is current. Do you guys know if approvals are based on I-485 filing date or priority date.

Actually by rule they should go by 485 RD.. but atleast at NSC they are not following PD or RD... they have put all the approvable into one large pool .. and they are picking the application from the pool at random.

Well the pool is huge and has around 20K application, so difficult to sort, I guess.
 
Is there no approval today? Guys, please post your approval here. It provide us oxygen!! We all are lost sailer in the mid sea and don't know how far shore of dream land is??? Still nothing changed from era of Columbus to now. In fact, Columbus had struggle for only few months while we are in mid sea for years!
 
Columbus didnot had to go through legal immigration, he just kept crossing the border like one of the 12 millions we have here.

conditional welcome notice

My husband and I finally got our GC approvals last week (EB-3 category). Our PD was Dec 2002 and the I-485 was filed in March 2004.

However, when we received our welcome notice yesterday, I found to my surprise that it says something about our GC being "conditional" and that it is valid only for 2 years after which we have to apply to remove the so called "conditions".

From what I understand, "conditional GC" is issued only to investors or family based applicants. So, it appears to be either a clerical error or just a generic message. Has anyone else encountered this for employment based cases from NSC? We have not received our GCs yet, so we are hoping that it is a clerical error.

Here is the verbiage from the notice:

Welcome to the USA...blah..blah..

"your new card will expire two years from when you became permanent resident. By law your resident status is conditional, and you must apply to remove those conditions before your card expires."

We are employement based applicants and from what I've heard the "conditional" stuff is not applicable to us.
