Those who applied in oct/nov 2004

Congratulations ! I am still waiting on my 485 even though I filed concurrently...
BTW, did you get any LUD on 485 earlier ?

Not a lot Nov RD being approved yet from my I-140 samples. I would say less than 20% cases approved. Less than half of them being touched and more than half not touched at all.
This is the game of patient.
Can you post your stats/samples for Nov 2004 cases

Thanks
 
Called emergency number again - name check still pending

I called up emergency number again today. Got a nice person to talk to. He took my A#, WAC #etc. and also varified thru soc sec number and DOB, which is new as earlier I was never asked for DOB, SOC Sec number etc.

Anyway, same old story. Name check is pending. The only thing he told me additionally was that the case was fine and was "flagged for approval pending name check". May be that is status they have got in the file.

He had the record that I had called up 3 weeks back. He actually told me to call again in about 30 days if case was not approved by that time. I asked him how would that help if name check would be pending. He told me that at time, the name check comes in but the case somehow is not taken up. The call will ensure that if the name check was clear, case was pushed for approval.

So, I will make next call later next month if I do not get good news by that time.
 
LUD info

Good luck on your case

What can you do to get your name check cleared?
I am thinking should I check with INS now to see if my names is cleared or should I wait few weeks more?
 
tscanner database file 140

Does any one has db file for 140 case around nov 2004. I don't want to search agian. just want to use the file to refresh data.
please send me the file at junaid.syed@gmail.com

Thanks
 
In most of 485 approvals, there is LUD on 485 few weeks before actual approvals, which means name check results received. So, people would get RFE for more info or approval based on the name check results.

I am not sure what works in such a case except waiting for luck. You can check with INS, would not harm.

LUD on 485

I got a LUD today on my 485, no change on 140
no status change, no email

Don't know what it is?
 
Looks like a good sign. Probably you have got the name check cleared and may see the approval soon.

I am happy for you. You have been very helpful for this forum. Now you can enjoy your life. After a while I think I will be the only one posting the questions in this forum and I have to find my own answers as everyone else except me gets the approvals.

You should not worry. LUD on 485 without 140 is not bad. If the LUD is due to namecheck, you should be happy. You would most likely get 140 and 485 together.

In most of cases, at time of 140 approval, 485 is also checked. You can see from the trend that at time of 140 approval, a lot of poeple are getting either 485 approval or RFE on 485. This means 485 is also checked at that time.

For those who do not have name cleared by that time, like mine, 485 have to wait till name check comes thru.

Be relaxed. Best of luck.

Hi Guys,

thanks for all the wishes, I appreciate it! This forum has been a big support in the stages of uncertainty.

BTW, gc-reqd, while you are certainly right about this thread becoming less active over time, but I would not think of it as you and lor are the ONLY ones not getting approval yet (see my note about easy cases and not-easy cases).

Good luck to you guys, and try not to spend too much time checking your status: In my case, got approved on 4/28 but didn't show on the status before the email was sent the next day.
I know, not thinking of it too much is easier said than done with so much at stake...
 
I have an LUD on 485 (both me and spouse) on Jan 13, 2005, but not on 140 and my daughters 485. No message change.
AFter that, we received Biometrics for my daughter (our finger printing was done in Nov 2004), and with in a week, my 140 has been approved. (3/30/2005). After that no news on 485 approval. Do you thing the LUD on Jan 13, is for Name check clearance?

case details:
140/485- Concurrent-CSC -EB2, PD Jan 2002
ND - Oct 1, 2004
RD - Oct 6, 2004
FP- Nov 12, 2004
EAD,AP- Dec 15, 2004

140 -APproved date - 3/30/2005

LUD on 485 (me and spouse) - 12/15/2004 (FPs received) and 1/13/2005 (No message change )
Biometrics for Minor Daughter (3/21/05) - done on 3/26, LUD 3/29 (no message change for 485)
after that no update on the case
Do you think , my case will be approved soon. or anything Suspicious.
 
Some statistic on WAC-05-033-5XXXX I140 (ND Nov 18th) as today

-------------------------
total number of I140 : 27
approved : 4
RFE : 5
touched (LUDed): 7
untouched: 11
-------------------------

Two RFE and one approval yesterday. Slow move. And I thought it should be less RFE after a memo but it turns out not!
 
GcIsTortoise ot anyone else

Any stats on cases applied with ND of Oct 22, 2004
I guess the Receipt numbers are WAC-05-015-5XXXX I140 and I485

By the way how do you get these stats

thanks
