I-485 February 2010 filers

Hi everybody, i have a question, I sent I-485, I-131 and I-765 on February 18th, and on 26th they cashed checks and sent me NOAs. On March 10th they send me request for evidence, which I mailed to them on 19th of March, and they got it (usp tracking) on March 23rd. I had my fingerptints done on 26th. Now I have a question, they got my RFE back on 23, but in care status online that I can check it still says: on march 10th we mailed RFE...... Do they update those when they get it, its been 10 days since I sent it. I am getting worried



Wait for 30 days, meaning wait till 10 of April, if you dnt get update.call them,do not call them now because all calls are recorded and noted in your record.look through your portfolio and see if you have soft LUD after you sent the RFE, and lastly dnt get worried,if USPS says its delivered,its has been delivered.you are suppose to get touch on your file 20day from RFE reply.

Interesting, have a similar situation... any further updates ilucas? Got an initial email from USCIS that RFE received - case resumes on April 01st. Now on April 06th soft LUD, but no updates. Now am so anxious, probably reading in too much. :|
 
Anyone recieved EAD card yet? It's been 2 months since I applied. My timeline is:

Feb 9th - Mail out application via FedEx
Feb 26th- Recieved Finger Print letter for March 8th
March 8th - Finger Print as scheduled
March 9th - Touch on I485 and I765
April 5th- Recieved Interview Notice for May 10th.

I need to have my EAD to start a new job. Has anyone here filed in Feb recieved EAD yet?

Thanks.
 
Hey Haiwei,

Try calling USCIS and ask for a expedite processing of you I765 on the basis of significant loss of income to you. I successfully did that 60 days after my application and received my EAD in a week. See my post #217 from March 31st, on January 2010 filers thread.
Good luck!

No. We are ancipating getting the IL this week. But I have noticed that people who werent requested RFE on anything got their IL and maybe even EAD sooner. But theres absolutely no updates.. Any advice?

We applied for I-131 and I-485 at the Vermont office in early Feb. We had our finger prints on March 12th. We still haven't heard anything from them.

Does anyone know how long the Vermont Office normally takes to process the applications?

Both I-765 and I-131 were touched today, but still no approval email on EAD or AP. Any ideas on what that may mean about the approval? What is taking so long?
 
Both I-765 and I-131 were touched for us as well, but no email.

MasterArcht, I haven't seen your timeline lately. Also you asked about where we live, well we don't live in the boston area. Lawrence would have been much easier for us.

We are planning on traveling abroad soon after the interview, does anyone know if we can keep the travel document without handing it in at the interview ? Thanks.

Congrats. Didn't you receive any approval email for AP?

By the way, I meant to ask WHAT TIME did you guys receive these approval emails? Was it in the morning or at night? Thanks a lot.

Thanks. Actually I didn't get any email about the AP. I got the EAD email in the afternoon.
 
Just had my interview this afternoon. Interview was at 10:30 and got called in at around 11:45. Interviewer stamped a one year GC in my passport and asked me to wait for the physical GC in the mail. :)
