Folks,
There is so much pressure build up on this forum for pending and awaited 485 AOS approvals.
That we need to have this thread only for 485 Approvals for the week.

This means, Next week starting 7th Jan, we will have similar thread January 7 - 12, 2002 AOS -485 Approval thread.
Nothing else matters to at least 300 folks on this forum.

Our case detail:

PD 3/30/00
RD 4/16/01
ND 6/4/01
FP 10/12/01 in San Jose ASC (scheduled at Oakland 11/2/01)
On 10/17/10, Message change to "FP collected and pending for review..."
On 1/1/01 Message change to "... process resumed" on Dec. 29 like most of people
On 1/3/01 Message change to "approved...on Dec.31 2001" for both cases, my wife\'s and mine. Thought it might be the glitch on AVM. Ignore that.
On 1/4/01 Get approval notice in mail and realize it is true.

Thank GOD who listens to our prayer and knows when it is the right time and right thing for us.

The two issues during the whole procedure:

1. Salary issue.
My salary was lower than the one specified on LC. Initially it mostly takes 2-3 years to reach I-485, which is not an issue.
But INS moves faster than my pay hikes. We find it out when filing I-485.
My employer is very nice to offer a letter saying: once upon the PR is granted, the salary stated on LD will be offered. Actually my employer increases my salary in next two months to that amount.

2. Multiple FP notice
We got 3 copies of FP notice altogether. First 2 are of the same date.
We still went to the third one as suggested by our lawyer although we have done FP already. The lady in Oakland ASC told us that we didn\'t need to do it again.

Overall, it is an OK experience with INS. Hopefully INS will improve more.
Let me know if you want to know more details.

My company doesn\'t have layoff or reorg. during my procedure of the GC.

Thanks to Ciba, henry & PCee for hard work. With your efforts and message, the waiting becomes not that intolerable.
 
Actually, Vishnu, if you want to start womanizing ....

maybe you should just go ahead and do it now. What if your prediction comes true and approvals start pouring in next week? You would have missed out on your chance :) You got a week, go right ahead and don\'t waste time. Saturday night may afford you the best opportunity yet. Go easy on the alcohol though. I hear too much alcohol inhibits the libido :) smile, smile, wink, wink!

You can expect approvals:
In the best case scenario - Feb 2002
In the normal scenario - March 2002
In the worst case scenario - May 2002
 
syngreeen MD/RD/ND for your friend

We have become prudent after AZ Boy\'s mysterious friend getting approval.
Unless you post your friend\'s MD/RD/ND, the information means nothing.
No hard feelings, this is post 9-11 world, no innocense permitted in any walk of life.
