Rd,ND 8/00 approval

Hi, my history is listed as follows:

PD: 4/98
I-485 RD,ND: 8/23/00

Assigned around mid Nov, 2001, probably on Nov, 14, 2001.

Today I checked ACM, it says "This case has been approved on Jan 16,2002".
So the time taken from "assigned" to approval is 2 months plus 2 or 3 days. There wasn\'t any update during that period.

The reason that my case was delayed probably is because of divorcing during I-485 pending. The dependent didn\'t do fingerprint, somehow it
affected my case or INS just simply displaced my files.

I have seen many speculations that one case is delayed because I-140
is done at a different service center, or INS is investigatin something...
From my understanding, these are just unwarranted worries. I had 2 F-1\'s and 2 H-1\'s. INS probably just simply displayed the files during bookkeeping. So sooner or later, it will come.

I did try local congressman while my case hadn\'t been with an officer during October. It probably worked. So if your case has been over 3 months beyond notice date and hasn\'t been looked at, maybe give it a try.

Most of all, don\'t worry, hang on and keep a peaceful mind, go on with normal life. It will come.
 
impact of divorce on 485

hello,what documents did you have to provide to INS as a result of your divorce filing/judgement? My friend (and his spouse) have gone thru the FP and is now planning to file a divorce...

Any advice...Thanks.
 
rely to j0007

The impact is that it gives room for INS errors which it did in my case.

Don\'t go along that route unless desperate.

Otherwise let the attorney send a letter with both I-485 notices and
Judgement of divorce.
