I spoke to IIO (I really think that they are not immigration officers, they are customer service clerks).She was very friendly and nice, but she had no clue what was going on. All she could say that case was pending. Then I said that JIT said that they are working on January cases and my case is December and I would like to know when is it going to be assign to the officer. She said that if JIT says January that means they are working on December and that JIT report always shows one month ahead?????? She also said that my case is ready to be adjucitated. Does anybody know what does that mean?
I am so pist that nobody at INS can give us an info what is going on. She was also saying that they have a big backlog, like I care. I just want them to get the job done. She had an accent, so she is an immigrant too. She knows what does that mean, but she still does not care at all.
My ND is 12/13
I did my fingerprint on 03/08/01
EAD 03/21
I485 waiting.
I am getting more and more frustrated. I hope that approval comes soon for all us

Have patience ZanaN
I am sure there are lotsa cases like yours pending and it is just the way INS works. If it would cheer you up I have ND of 09/99 and my case is still pending. I did my FP 02/01 and yet no approval.
So don\'t get frustrated and hang in there - we will all get thro\', hopefully...

How do you handle it?
I have written to a director of the center, to a congressman, and I have sent a G731-inquiry form to INS last week.
You are so patience. I have been in a process for more then 3 years, and I am running out of patience. Congressman did the inquiry for me, and INS said on 04/21 that the decision on my case will be made within 60 days. That is still not good enough, so I will be writing to a senator this week, to see what they can do. I am not giving up.
Thanks for advise. I appreciate it. But I have to do anything I can to get this done. It is holding to many things in my life. I will call INS again next week too.
Do you know their fax number?
I want to fax G731 again.
Thanks

if your ND is 01-00, please go to local INS office and request a FP notice. they will print out one for you. there are others on this board who did that and i think ciba\'s tracker site has some experience on this.
good luck.

You did your FP in early march so your approval should be coming any day now - it is usually taking about 2-3 months after FP for the recent cases. It is only the old cases like 98/99/early 00 that are being mis-handled. It\'s a good thing that you are not giving up and yeah by all means try to contact them by whatever means available. I wish you, myself and all others who are waiting for approvals all the best. Hopefully we should see some light at the end of this endless tunnel...
