In my case, I am the dependent on my husband's EB-2 application who is not yet approved. He is already approved (PP stamped on 4/16 in Baltimore, and the plastic card arrived on 5/16.)
I had to be re-fingerprinted on 4/23, not because my fingerprints had "expired" but because my prints just did not show up well on the computer thing (I was fingerprinted twice already last year). So this time they did it manually, with ink. I don't know if that is the problem as to why my case was transferred to the local office (4/1) and I'm still awaiting word on what happened with my fingerprints. Does anyone know how long a manual (ink) FP will delay processing?
