I submitted my applications around the same time with you, and I didn't give my 2007 transcript. I did provide 2006, 2005, and 2004 transcripts. I mentioned on the cover letter than my 2007 transcript was not available yet for me. Lucky for me they didn't ask for RFE.

I am surprised that it took 3 months to get your RFE notice, perhaps it was in your lawyer's desk for a while.

What is the LUD on I-485 on 9/05/08?

You might want to schedule infopass to get the status of you EAD and general questions/information they might be able to give you by looking at their (uscis) system.
 
Just a little update.

I got my interview yesterday in Jacksonville. It went smoothly in an unbelievable way. We arrived at the department of USCIS about 25 minute earlier than the appointment time. We went through security gate and dropped the IL in the box. Just 4 minute after we dropped the letter, we got called in by a very nice officer. He guided us into his office and swore us in (just to tell the truth).

We sat down and the first thing he asked for is my passport. then he went through the I485 form and my G325.

That was it. we did not spent very much time there.

So good luck, you guys. Your Interview date will come soon and I hope everything will be perfect as mine.


My priority date is May 22,2008. F-1 ---->GC

Yes, you are right, I might have to do this. Does my wife (USC) need to be there for that?

It never hurts to take your spouse with you, I would recommend it, especially if you want to check the I-130 status i.e the USC's petition. Your I-485 and 765 are tied to your spouse I-130. However if she can't go with you, I'd say go w/o her, and if they want her to come, then come back when she's available.
 
Thank you

Thanks very much nspatel112.
This site is being so helpful for my case. I always found answers for my questions.
I appreciate everyone 's support in this forum

HaHa... exactly the same situation for me. I made an infopass appt, 2 days before the appt date, I got the emails of EAD card ordered.

Congratulations!
 
IL Finally!

I finally got my IL. It came today and it's for Nov 12th in Memphis. WooHoo!!!!!!! :D

Only 6 more weeks...
 
GC was approved today. As typical for parent petitions, no interview was done.

Best of luck to everyone waiting on their process to complete. I'll keep posting updates as card is received, etc.
