Newark local office transfer: tracker

ND 08/2002 NIW transfered Newark, I am nervous !

Hi, there,

Just got 6 emails from INS, our cases( wife, kid and I ) tranfered to Newark local office July 30,2004. We did 2FP on 05/25/2004, No RFE.

The fact is that currently I am not in US, and I dont have a job offer in US. but I have valid AP to enter. The truth is while my wife and kid are consistently staying and working in US in the past 2 years, I spent 4 months in yr 2003 and 6 months in year 2004 working on a project abroad.

I have two questions:
1.what is current timeframe in Newark to schedule a interview ? when am I expecting a interview in Newark?
2. When asked for employment letter and paystubs, may I provide a future employment letter ( intention to work in US after approval, but no recent paystubs) to satisfy the INS requirement, as I am NIW filer ?

I am really nervous, what am I supposed to prepare right now ? Gurus, appreciate your advice, thanks a lot !!

approved after 6years 10 months

started labor process regular trend 9/27/97
labor approved 5/19/01
I-140 approved 9/20/01

case TD 8/26/03
Interview date 11/7/03

Finally game is over. During this whole process I was stressed and one point lost hope to get GC. I wrote letter to everybody like senator, congress, VSC director but it took 6 years 10 months to get GC. I really did not figure out why it took too much time? I have feeling for those guys who are still waiting for ever. I will visit this web time to time and it's a great web to get information who are seeking GC through Employment base. Goodluck to you guys.
 
It is definitely a good sign

mjr_jcnj,

Yes, it is a good sign. One of my friend got her FP done sometime in July at Newark and about 13 days after she finished her FP, she got the interview letter and her interview is scheduled early Sept.

So yours should be there soon, I guess should be about the end of this month.

BTW, mine was transfered to Newark on July 19, too.

Good Luck
