Is Early FP worth it !!!!

I agree with skjun02. A case cannot be "Adjudication ready" without having anything to validate against. The basis for this validation is to have a valid FP and a name check that passes security check. Only then the case would be sent to an IIO. THis process is logical and makes sense since you wouldnt want to forward a case to an IIO when you know the IIO cannot process it any further without having this necessary information.

Hi Lucky 65. I checked Murthy.com but couldnt find any info on this. Could you please give me the exact URL of the article which talks about this.

Thanks !!

There are a bunch of people like me got RFEed even FP have (just) expired. From what I read, FP is done by different people (maybe contractor) on a more or less FIFO order. Even though not perfect, it's much better than the way RFE generated.
 
hidden_dragon,

I also observed some cases where RFE was issued even though 1st FP has JUST expired. Based on the processing logic, a group handles FP (Check if your case is adjudication ready. If YES, put them on a stack for IIO to look at). Then IIO goes through your case, send RFE/approval.

For the just EXPIRED FP cases, may be, when the contractors verified the FP date, it had not expired (say 3 days left for expiry). Now, if it took more than 3 days to reach IIO's desk, it has expired (But, IIO may not be concerned with that now. He will issue RFE). Another scenario is it reached IIO before expiry, got a RFE sent. By the time, they get response, FP has expired and now you will have to wait again for 2nd FP.

So, in your case, evn though it appears you got RFE after your FP expiry, in reality, when the RFE was sent/adjudicated, your case might still have been a valid "adjudication ready" case. There is a narrow window, between the contractors evaluating it for "adjudication ready" and the IIO adjudicating it, through which an FP might expire.

Just another unfruitful guess work.

Puneet,

rgds,
 
I guess my case is ready (RFEed recently) becuase name check is done, even though first FP just expired. The immigrationwatch data supports the description of sweeping between different months of 2002. My FP expires on april 13 but RFEed on May 11. Pretty big gap though. Another possibility, FP clock starts when CIS receive or even enter them into record , which could be months after you've done it.
