i-485 approved

I got my welcome notice letter (permanent resident) 2 days ago, how long does it take to get the actual card.
 
omk1122, Iam not sure if you posted this question by mistake on this thread.
See the message from nj2006ster he is requesting information on visa number availability in Oct.

nj2006ster : Your priority date is quite old(Dec2002) which should allow you to file in Oct2007, I pray that you get your LC gets approved by that time. Wish you all the best.

Thanks Siva & NYC for replying .

NYC ,its very unlikely that i will get approval before aug 17th as mine is under TR .
Siva, I hope they will not make 485 unavaliable in Oct 2007 for india .


GC/ OMK - Can you please start your other thread for your " approval question" . Thanks !
 
Hurry up and do your medical and start preparing everything that you need to file the I-485, because your labor might be approved before August 17.
 
Yes nj2006ster follow Jack's advise , please get your medical done and be ready with all paperwork, there would be some pressure now on DOL to approve backlogged cases.
 
your PD should hopefully be current in the next 6 months if not at the start of October itself. Dates should not go U because they a new set of visa numbers become available in october.

as Jack said get your medicals done, and collect all things like experience letters (for I-140) and birth certificate/affidavits etc. medicals are good for one year, so even if it takes a few months you might still be lucky.

Once you get your LC and file the I-140 consider starting another PERM LC in EB2 (i am assuming your EB3). once you get your I-140 from this one approved, recapture that PD on the EB2 one, so you get a 2002 EB2 PD. talk to your lawyers/employer once that LC gets approved.

Having 2002 PD you should not worry and give a damn. You will be in during OCT 2007 bulletin. BEC will have to approve you before the end of September. Bullshit Enlightening Center already have claimed that publicly. Meanwhile you should do following:

- Gather up Birth certificate as per require format from your home country if
by now you have not.
- Have 2" x 2" Photographs ( 8 per person)
- Prepare the set with other documents.
- Finish up medicals with USCIS recommended surgeon
 
Guys -

Thanks for encouraging response . so you guys think in worst case scenario for oct 2007 they allow ppl from 2001 and 2002 to file ?

I am rt now in process of getting all docs and doc appt .
As my case is TR i really doubt that they will approve before Aug 17th but i am getting ready for it anyway .

do you know whether USCIS follows RD or PD for approving 485 ?


Thanks!!!

:confused:
 
you will definitely be current in October - don't worry about that.

what do you guys think about ROW?
i am keeping my fingers crossed with a pd of july 2005
 
EB3 ROW? I think that will go back to somewhere between what it was in the May and June bulletins, (i.e. 2004 or early 2005).

But of course, it is just a guess ... nobody can predict what those madmen will do.
 
USCIS will remain conservative, as it's service centers are swamped by applications as per June and July visa bulletin. However, being a 2002 PD holder, you can be hopeful for October visa bulletin. It all depends how many applications prior to your PD (on your EB category and country) is pending with USCIS.
