Philadelphia Transfer Cases

Strange Situation- Guru's Help!

Yesterday, it was a bit of surprise for me. But yet not resolved. Our family's interview was done on Nov 05, 2004 and since then I have been waiting for approval notice which is pending due to FBI name check clearance. However, Yesterday my kid (6 years old) alone recieved Welcome notice. I am hoing that ours (me and my wife's) also arrive in few days. Does that mean my file has been cleared? or Can they approve just dependents without the approval of primary? My kid's letter was dated on 13th Mar. 2004 (Sunday)? Do they work on Sundays?

Gurus can enlighten me please!

Anybody has the experience to file a lawsuit?

Guys
I am seriously considering to file a lawsuit(Mandamus) to speed up our employment based I-485 application due to huge delay of my name check with FBI. If somebody has this kind of experience, please share your experience.

Thanks

tiger1234,

Try writng/talking to Rajiv Khanna. Back in Dec 2003 when the lawsuit was filed by Rajiv there were numerous posts about other individual filings and their outcomes. Though not sure if any of them was employment based.

Also, did you try writing to Congressman and/or Senators?

thanks! In the mean time, I wrote to Congressman and Senator, FBI director/Assistant Director. But my name check is still pending. I will try talking/writing to Rajiv.
 
interviewed and stamped

well here is the news: my wife and I had interview today and we both have our pp stamped.

We were called in together. Officer is an African-American lady - very nice. After sworn us in she asked our passport, birth cert, marriage cert, job letter, paystub, 3-year tax, and ask the questions on 485 form. That's it. She said the card will be mailed to our address 3-6 months and we can use the stamp to travel.

Now I got to relax a little and enjoy :)

Congratulation, Yuxin. From your username, it seems you came from China. I also came from mainland China. My question for you is: are your certficates for birth and marriage original or notarized. I just have notarized, not original. Do you think it is OK that we just bring these notaried certificates to our interviews. Thanks.

notorized is good enough. what do u mean by original? Do u mean the cert from the hostpital where you were born -no need for that.

I'm surprised to see ppl who had their applic transferred for almost a year or more are not approved yet. I came across one of MGM recent posts and I cannot believe that his applic is not approved yet (he was the one to start this thread and his applic was transferred more that 2 years ago). MGM, can you please post the details of your case ... any idea why your applic is processed so slowly?
Thanks,
enmessis

My case is strange

Nemesis,

I posted about my case before. We received a notice saying that my kid's appln has been approved. It takes 9-12 months (Oh God!) to receive physical green card. No news about mine and my wife's cases. May be still under name check. Is that not funny to approve my kid's case before mine. CIS is totally inscrutable.
 
Congratulations nemessis!!!
It looks like Philly is faster than Baltimore..I remember you were transferred shortly after me...and I am still waiting, was told my interview will be in June-July:-(
