many possibilities for RFEs
mka2005.
I was very worried when I got our RFEs (medical & legal status). First of all I never got an email saying that RFEs were issued. I got a letter from my lawyer for the medical part and then a call from him for the legal status one. I was not familiar with the term RFE and got very nervous. Then, thanks to this forum I learned that lots of people get RFEs and it seems to get your approval coming (if you respond their inquiries ofcourse). There are 2 usefull threads on this forum called RFEs tracker, under texas service center I-485 issues. There you can find all kinds of RFEs and testimonies from people. My advice is to respond to the RFE as soon as possible, send it to your lawyer via FedEx and ask him to send it to USCIS as soon as possible too. According to my experience and current statistics, you'll get an email and LUD very quickly saying that they have received your response. Don't be afraid if you get another one...I got 2. But thank God, I was able to respond quickly because I had all information they needed at hand. Please go to the thread I told you. It is very informative, and you'll find very nice people there willing to help you.
Good Luck, and please keep me posted.

I think you're right
mka2205
I think you're right. I'm glad you found the thread and searched for possibilities. The important thing is to have what ever USCIS asks for "at hand" so you can reply as soon as possible.
It seems you'll be approved maybe sooner than you thought!
I don't know any other reasons for 485 RFEs but if I find something I'll post.
Please keep us informed about your case.
Did you entered your data at Saras76 spread sheet? It is on 485 rfe tracker -post#3. We're all there!

Finger print
We had early finger print (2nd) on March 31, 2005{Original Schedule- June 6 and July 5(Spouce)}. According to FBI, they sent reports back to USCIS on same day. Also, I spoke with INS officer last week at 1-800 , she said they(USCIS) received reports from FBI on April 7th.
Yesterday I received a call from my attorney's office because they received a call from USCIS for rescheduling finger print(No Biometric) for my spouce. But we have not received any notice regarding re-scheduling. So far NO LUD, No email etc..I don't know what is going on???

No, we were transferred to the DO last December and are waiting for our interviews. We did get our second FP appointment last week so at least they haven't lost our files.iwannagreencard said:
No FP LUD: not to worry
My daughter was fingerprinted for I-485 on 4/7 approved 5/9. In the meantime she did not receive any on-line status change: no "FP results received...case resumed", no LUD, nothing. I was worried about that but as it seems, no FP status change is not necessarily a bad sign.

good for you!
I'm glad you got your RFE and I hope you respond soon. When you send those to uscis you'll see your case status change to RFEs received in just a couple of days. Also you''ll see a couple of LUDs. At least that's what happened to me. It seems you'll be approved soon.
I'm still here waiting for the good news!

How many days FBI take to send FP report to USCIS?
I have done my FP 4/10/05 ,LUD updated on 4/10 & 4/11 but no message update.Any suggestions.????

I was fingerprinted on 4/7/05, got an I-485 LUD (no message change) on 4/8, and no activity since then on my I-485. This seems to be a common pattern for people fingerprinted around that time. I called FBI, and they said they sent my fp's back to USCIS on 4/7/05 itself. I'm hoping (praying) the I-485 will just show up in my mailbox any day now.
EB1-OR concurrently filed in VSC ND: 5/28/04
I-140 AD 1/5/05
FP 4/7/05
I-485 LUD 4/8/05, no msg change, and no updates since then

Same boat!
I too was fingerprinted on 1/8/05, got an I-485 LUD (a response that it is still pending after I had called USCIS by phone and placed an inquiry as to the status. By the way; also recieved a letter from USCIS too saying the same exact message; case pending), and no activity since then on my I-485.
Had also called FBI some couple of weeks after the FP, and they said they sent my fp's back to USCIS on 1/8/05 itself.
Guy's please help... going crazy with worry (one colleauge that did everything and all stages pretty much at the same times as me and is also the same employer based filing; even thru the same attorney- got the approval already and I am going nuts with the wait!)
As I understand there is this big name check thing also that happens about at the same time by FBI that they finish the FP process and sent it back to USCIS.
Should I just send that email enquiry on the name check (fbinncp@ic.fbi.gov) and wait??? [I just found out that one can inquire for it by sending the email thru this forum-God bless you all] send the email & wait the three or four months for reply! Anyways; What do you ask in the email? And please those who got response back from FBI abt name check-what do they normally say?]
Since the status online did not change regarding the FP recieved etc. by USCIS; should I start calling them up too at the same time?
Gurus please help!!!

Hi! I've been around, but since I got my RFEs I've been hanging around on the RFEs tracking thread instead. Remember I did 2FPs on 03/15/05 never got LUD or Message changes until I got RFEs, so it seems USCIS is not changing messages for FPs this days. I've not received any new messages or LUDs since 05/04/05... I've been frustated lately with the uncertainty. About my medicals (RFE) they needed I-693 supplemental form (immunizations) I had all records so the civil doctor could fill out everything with no problem. I also got RFE for proof of legal entry. I had I-94 and stamps on passport, so I responded quickly. I thought I was going to be approved soon but it seems USCIS is not working on 2003 cases lately. We even started an "unlucky 2003 filers" thread...
Tell me about your case, did you responded RFEs yet? I remember some problem with salary cut? Hope everything is ok. Keep me posted.
Good Luck!
