Recd 1st FP notice for ND 06/2002

[aparticipant]

My wife & I received our first fingerprint notices yesterday (appt set for Aug 25). Not sure what triggered it, but could be any of the following:

* As others are theorizing, TSC could be performing a "FP mass sweep" for all pending 2001/02 petitions.

* My (long overdue) 3rd AP petition might have automatically triggered action on my I-485 petitions (just as others here are thinking that a 3rd AP/EAD seems to trigger action, since it clearly indicates a long pending petition).

* I sent a few faxes to TSC requesting FP, just as suggested by several participants here. I probably sent one every 2 weeks in the last 2 months.

* Our attorney initiated an enquiry via AILA TSC liaison on my long overdue AP petition (AP ND 28-Jan-04!). This could have prompted a closer look at my entire file. This was after NCSC's (apparently bogus) status inquiry only resulted in a (equally useless) reply of "Status: your application is pending." Surprisingly, last week we received an RFE (by FedEx!) for the AP, asking us to send back a copy of our original I-131 form. Apparently, they lost my I-131. We sent it Friday, and received an approval email on Monday! Waiting to receive the approval notice (paper) by mail. The fact that they approved the AP in a hurry makes me think it's linked to AILA inquiry. Perhaps.

Good to see FP notices.

Looks like things are moving although slowly.....

I received the FP notices at my home address (not lawyer's). Actually, I moved a month back, and filed AR-11 for change of address. Fortunately, their database seems to have been updated, and the notices had our correct (new) home address.
That reminds me: I should add one more to the range of possibilities -- Change of Address -- for what might have triggered our FP notices.

Dear a-participant,

We appreciate for ur participation in part of this TSC fourm to share FP notice.

Many ppl are waiting painfully for their 1st FPs, as many threads indicate that some movement/activities are going in issuing FPs.

Btw getting FP at home address is wierd.......... and u are lucky that they also update ur new address, not only u got FP but it also confirm the change of address - thats cool many ppl shared they asked cong/sent help to update address. u are really lucky


Good Luck

I tried following, and none of them helped...
* change of address
* 3rd EAD approved

Also many have sent Fax and most have not yet received FP.

Most likely the AILA liason inquiry helped...

if they are officially allowed to FedEx, wondering what is the criteria...
