I received approval emails from CRIS today for both me and my wife. I wish to thank all of you for your support and help throughout this adventure. I will stick around to answer any questions or queries that some might have. My timeline and details are as follows :
Applied Eb2-NIW (NSC) in Nov 2006, approved in april 2008
applied EB1-EA (TSC) in Mar 2007, approved in Oct 2007
Applied I-485 in August 2007 with receipt notices of both 140's. RD 15 Aug, ND 12 Oct 2007. In february 2008 my 485 got transferred from TSC to NSC. Found out they linked my 485 with NIW instead. waited till my NIW got approved then mailed them 3 times and called them 3 times requesting interlinking. Last friday call I think made the difference as the officer (Mary) told me she will notify her supervisor. And sure she did, today I have the approval notice in email.
By the way my name check was pending till last friday so I guess 180 day rule holds!
