My 485 as well as my wife's were approved . See my signature for details .
This forum has been of great help to me . I wish speedy approvals for those who have been waiting for long .

My observation is : make sure that your dates are past 485 published dates . Make sure your FP did not expire . Make sure NAMECHECK is complete .


Thanks

Regarding Namecheck

Hi Sunny,

Do we need to anything from our side for Namecheck? My situation is similar to you. I got RFE on EVL and responded to the RFE on 2/11/2005. My LUD changed twice (now 2/17/2005) and after that nothing has happened.

My 485 receipt date is Jan 5, 2004 (Vermont SC).

Can I expect the approval anytime soon?

Thanks,
Kalyan
 
Hi Kalyan ,

Strictly speaking we don't have to do anything as far as name check is concerned . ANytime after submission of 485 application , USCIS can send a request to FBI about namecheck . Unfortunately it was widely reported ( and I believe) that the requests sent by VSC never reached FBI because of software glitch . VSC keeps on waiting for FBI response . FBI will not work on your case as they have no official request . THis is what many of April 03 folks noticed. So it is better to make sure that name check is completed .
You can find email address to which you should send the email by doing some search on Namecheck . FBI typically takes 3 months to respond to your email . Since VSC had already received your response to your RFE . by that time ( 3months) actually you may have approval . But no harm in sending an Email to FBI .

Good luck with your 485

-Sunny

Spouse and Self Approval - Question

Hi - I have been checking the LUD online. My husband's LUD message indicate the application is moving along. However mine is not changing at all. I am the main applicant and my husband is applying through me. Is it possible for his I485 to be approved before mine? Any thought?? Thanks!! :rolleyes:
 
Approved

At last, 485 got approved, my details are as follows.

PD - June 15, 1999
I-140 Approval - August 2000
I-485 Receipt Date - June 5, 2004 (yes, there is a big gap, I was waiting to get married ....)
RFE on 485 - Jan 19, 2005 - EVL, Pay stubs, Tax Returns
RFE Received Date - Feb 11, 2005
485 Approval Date - March 9, 2005

I strongly feel that the approval happens in the order in which RFE response was received (for the people who have got RFE)

I would like to thank everyone for the guidence provided. I am running out of words ....

Thanks,
Vidyakalyan
