I140 Transfer from CSC to TSC

Wording of I-140 Approval Notice is confusing

Gurus:

1. My colleague's 140 was approved 04/17/06 (RD Feb.06, EB3). However, we are concerned about the text on the approval notice, and want advice from other who have received approval:

"The above petition has been approved. We have sent it to the Department of State National Visa Center (NVC), 32 Rochester Avenue, Portsmouth, NH 03801-2909. NVC processes all approved immigrant visa petitions that need consular action. It also determines which consular post is the appropriate consulate to complete visa processing. The NVC will then forward the approved petition to that consulate."

Question from those who have received the printed approval notice: Nowhere in this approval notice does it talk about AOS or 485. Is this something the attorney needs to get corrected? Or does it often happen this way but would not be a problem for AOS? (The applicant wants AOS).

Any advice and insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

2. My own case is WAC-06-044 ... EB3, transfer to TSC 03/21/06 ... still waiting!
 
Thanks Shiyang for your response. One more quick question...


Sometimes back you had posted........."copy of recommendation letters
SInce I prepare for application under both EA and NIW, I need to 2 copy of letters. But some of my referee only sent me one signed copy. Do you think I can make a copy of this letter and submit with the petition. Thanks
"

Can you please tell what did you finally do...about getting copy of the recommendation letters for your NIw and Eb1 petition? I want to know did you submit any photocopy of letters for your Eb1-EA petition?

Thanks again.

I-140 Approved after transfer. (EB1-EA)

I got approval email today. My I-140 was filed around November 2005. This one was not filed with an I-485.
 
Congratulations !! Can you please share you credentials..? When was you case transferred? When and where did you file your petition? Did you see any LUDs before approval? What time did you receive your approvals?

Thanks and good luck.

BTW, I didn't file 485
 
Can you please share your education and credentials for EA? LUD could mean anything from I-485 process to security checks... You dont have to worry about LUDs on I-140 after approval. BTW on what date was your I-140 approved 04/??/2006.

Thanks and good luck !
