Hi,Can anybody share his or her experience.
I had my interview on June 13,2006 at Federal plaza but no stamp.
However,the officer wrote "Pending for 245 and the DAO name"
Please share your experience on how long to get approval letter or change of message or what will happen next.
Thanks for the input. :confused: :confused: :confused: :mad:

well I had an EB1 case - photographer - took 5 [five years ] because they lost my application.
I was my own sponsor

interviewer was nice but detached -
went with no lawyer.

she asked me about clients -
how often i work for them etc etc - she was a little aggressive with that -
she asked me 3 years of taxes but i had only one and a letter from a CPA regarding my 2005 income -

I had no SSN before 2005 - so it was hard -

that was the stressfull part because my income was in a grey area -

I had no birth certificate - I had to bring one back one week from the interview [translated copy fedexed from italy by my dad]

at the end she told me she had to review my case [a 2 inch stack of paperwork] and i would hear in 2 weeks -
i waited 5 months and got green card from VSC. no stamp on passport...

there were routine questions about terrorism/ communism / oath etc...
some may make you smile but you gotta take them seriously.

then she asked me about my photography etc - if i printed my own stuff. she looked at tear sheets and letters of recommendation and commission from magazine photo editors etc...

I think my immigration officer was a supervisor because she had her own room instead of a cubicle -
but i came here in 2000 [march] with a B1 visa - then left 2 weeks - back in july 2000 extende
nded my visa - applied for an EB1 [skipping O1] in april 2001. approval notice for I 140 in nov 2001 - then INS lost my application etc etc etc

good luck

a friend of mine looked at my green card and said "5 years of anxiety condensed in a little card". so true.
it has been stressful but it has not been boring!
good luck

request for more documents

Your PD may not be current or they may be requiring some evidence. By the way, when was your case transferred to the local office and how long after that did you get the interview call.
 
case pending

had my interview at the garden city, went well, but the lady found out no registration done, i explained about my sickness in that period with hospital proof. Kept the proof and told me that, she will email Federal Plaza to find out, if they accept the medical proof. Told me, I would get a letter in mail.
Did not stamp, wrote I 485 pending and her name.Its been 2.5 months, I wonder how long I have to wait.Anyone has the same situation.
 
case pending

i am in the same boat.
interv. done on oct.10 th 2006,PD current ,but the FP was expired ,so the officer told me that after my FP cet cleared he is gonna take a desicion.passport stamped with 245 pending blah blah blah...i never got FP notice ,made 3 Infopasses-nothing.on the 4 th infopass jan 4th 2007 ,they scedj. me for FP went on the same day and made it .MADE after that 1 more infopass ,they told me my case is cleared ,FP ,NC everything is ok,and now its up to the officer who made the interv. to take a dessicion about my case .I am planning to make 1 more infopass on tuesday 20 th of febr. to see whats going on ? my opinion is that you gotta keep pressing them ,make infopasses ,ask questions ....because they dont know what they are doing .i am tired ,dont care anymore just need a answer yes or no ,if i have to ill go every week and ask them.(by the way may interv.was in Cherry Hill,NJ)
 
Interview

after my case was pending in TSC for 6 month I got a notice that the initial processing of my case is copleted and my case was transferred to Miami for a standart interview. I am an EB2 case world wide. My case was transferred to Miami in Feb. 1, 2007. does anyone know how long would I have to wait to get the interview? Is this standard? :(

Hi ,
Do you live around Miami (Florida) or Miami (Ohio) ??? I see that you posted this on Vermont Service Center forum !!! If you do so , give it like 30 days to pass since you have received the transfer notice , and after that make sure that you get an infopass and find out for sure that your case is in Miami (Florida or Ohio )!!! I'm telling you this because i've been in the same situation for the past 2 years , and my case was transfered after ...19 MONTHS ...since the notice of transfer was first made !!! I don't want to scare you , but this is bad news to be transfered , specially that Miami (Florida) Office it's just very slow in processing our cases !!! So , i advise you to be on top of your case all the time !!! I have posted a lot about my case (EB3) , on Texas Service Center forum , and is better for you to do that also , only if you are in Florida , not if you are in Ohio !!!

Hopefully you'll have more good luck than me !!! God Bless !!!
