I just talked to an IIO (was lucky today, that I got connected in 30 seconds, though was on hold for 45 min.) regarding my EAD Renewal (ND 11-26-2001). My current EAD expires on 27-FEB-2002. He said that they are still processing September cases. Also, checked with him about my pending 485 application. He initially said that I have been scheduled for FP on March 22, 2002. When I told him that I already did my FP on 09-FEB-2002, he asked for my A# and confirmed that the FP results were recd on 11-FEB-2002 and they were good. Asked him, when I can have some movement on my case, he said that the FP results has to be matched to my file first and then will be sent to the supervisor for adjudication. I do not know, what he means by matching my FP to my file. I am thinking probably, they get the results from FBI based on A# and then INS has to match it to our file based on the Rect. Number or some crap like that ?
