NSC I-140 RFE Experiances

I-140 Approved

Just now received an email (just one) that my I-140 is approved. It took exactly 2 weeks. RFE response was received by CIS on August 5th and was approved on August 17th.

Thanks for all the support during this laborious tenure.

Clarification

Hi Guys

I am new to this forum, and I need some clarifications:

My lawyer tells me that Nebraska is currently processing I-140 and I-485's received on December 1, 2003! Is this accurate or did the web site just not get updated?

Other question to all the "short forms".

RFE = ?
CIS = ?
LUD = ?
RFE on A2P = ?
I-140 AD = ?

Thanks for your inputs

PD January 2003
LC approved July 2005
Michigan / EB3
I-140 filled August 2005
I-485 wait for visa number availability
 
Hi gbroder,

Welcome to NSC. You seem to have got out of the Dallas backlog LC pile. By spending a few more moments on the NSC's 140 victims forum, you would get clear idea of the unclear behavior of NSC.

To start, you can go to www.USCIS.gov and check for current NSC's processing dates. As of I-140 EB3 category, the date indicated is Dec.2003, but the approvals are seen with RDs as early as April-May, 2005.

RFE = Request For Evidence
CIS = Citizenship & Immigration Services
LUD = Latest UpDate
RFE on A2P = RFE on Ability To Pay
I-140 AD = Approval Date :)

Good luck.

Thanks a lot

Hi DIGS

Thanks a lot for your welcome and information.
It looks like there is hope for the I-140 approval in a decent timeframe.
Do you know where Nebraska stands on the I-485's?

Thanks a lot

Hi gborder,
Your lawyer may be correct but little clarification. Not the I-485 received on
Dec'03 but processing those application whose Priority date is Dec'03.(EB2 cases)
Because my 140 and I485 approved together last week. Mine is EB2 with prioity date Aug'03. I don't know about the EB3 cases.

My 140 RFE was replied back on Aug 3rd. My LUD changed 3 times with no updated info but just the date change...8/19/05, 8/22 and 8/24...... what does this mean? Any ideas........
 
I-140 approved !!

Guys, I don't know what happened, but I just got an e-mail from my Lawyer saying that my I-140 was approved yesterday. It took only 4 weeks - can you believe that?

My RD (received and notice date) is July 27, 2005
EB3/Michigan
Switzerland
I-140 AP: August 24, 2005
No RFE's at all.

Guys, what is next? I can only file my I-485 as visa number get available (October). Can I do Medical, Fingerprint, etc.?

Your input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

bunny01,

Mine was responded to on August 4th and CIS recd. the RFE on 5th. I guess your case should have been looked into as we both have the same officer code and mine was approved on Aug 17th.

Did you check with the customer rep. on the case status?

Mahesh
 
Hi Mahesh,
Congrats! my online message says: RFE received on Aug 19th even tho it was sent on Aug 3rd. Did ur LUD change so many times as mine also?

Did u contact the Cust. Rep. to know about 140 approval?

Hi Bunny,

Hope your 140 gets approved soon. You should be worried if the LUD changes on both 140 and 485 at the same time.

Would appreciate if you could let me know about your response to the RFE. How did your attorney respond.

Thanks
 
Thanks Bunny01. No, my LUD changed just once last Thursday regarding the approval.

No, I didn't contact the customer rep. However, I was just checking the automated message every two days. You may want to check with the customer rep. regarding the incorrect receipt date of your RFE response.

Good Luck.

Mahesh
 
Hi Sbss,

I am not sure what my attorney did. My case will prove if he's too smart for USCIS or too foolish. Will let u know more about my RFE reply soon. Attorney wants to see if my case can be approved and then tell me the approach. Btw, how did u respond to ur RFE?

Mahesh,
Thanks for the response.

Thanks for the response.

Hi Bunny,

Thanks for the response. My Attorney has not responded yet. We are going to argue EB2 but request EB3 in the alternative if NSC does not agree.
