** I140/485 approval with FOIA delay and inquiries **

i finally got my I14/485 approved on Jan 13, 2005. It was a long wait and I was very stressed out because of the uncertainties of my job. I worked on having CIS to answer if AC21 applies to concurrent cases that have been pending for 6 months. I did not have much success after about four months effort. I stopped actively mail/email/fax to senators/congresswomen and CIS around early Dec 2004.

Please pay attention to the FOIA part because that's why my case got delayed. I think my second inquiry to I485 had triggered the process of both my overdue I140 and I485.


Here is the detail of my case:

I140/485 CSC EB2 RD: Feb 10, 2004
finger print: April 21, 2004
first AP: filed in Mar 2004 and approved in Apr 2004
first EAD: filed in Aug 2004 and approved in Oct 2004
FOIA filed in Sept 2004, still pending until now
first I140 inquiry by lawyer: Dec 5, 2004
lawyer's response: My I140 case was held in FOIA department so it cannot be ajudicated
first I485 inquiry: Dec 18, 2004
cancel FOIA: Jan 11, 2005
second I485 inquiry: Jan 10, 2005
LUD changed: Jan 11, Jan 12, 2005

Congratulations!!! I am happy it all worked out for you.
 
What is FOIA ? Also is the AC21 applicable for concurrent I140/485 filing ?

UN, Thanks a lot. I am glad you are still here and remember people's names (or screen names). Do you have any idea of the AC21 cases with oending I140?
 
eb2dec, in the case that ypur employer does not want to give you a copy of your labor certificate or I140 application, you can use FOIA to request a copy.
 
Thanks!

Heart felt congratulations and thanks for all the effort you put in for
processing delay campaign. I was thinking from few days to call you and
check. I was also talking to one of my colleague just yesterday evening
saying I need to call you and see what happenned as you stopped posting.

I am happy for you.
 
askgc, thanks so much. I do feel excited to the new freedom. Have your 485 got approved? I remember your I140 was approved back in Oct/Nov.
