Hi All,

Today i received an e-mail from USCIS stating :On October 4, 2006, a welcome notice was mailed for this case. If 30 days have passed and you have not received this notice. Please call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283 during business hours.

Does this mean I have been approved? But why doesn't it say If I have been approved or not? If approved when will i get my green card?

Pls Pls Pls Pls reply and let me know what exactly all this info means.

Pls Pls Pls Pls pls ........You guys have been really helpful....Thanks in advance
 
Your I-485 has been approved.
First they send a welcome letter, then a few days after, the green card (approval notice).

PS: Congratulations
 
Please post your timeline

Congratulations, zombie2006. Does DORA adjudicate its cases without an interview typically, or were you special?
 
I did have an interview.In dallas its the same day u have the interview when you actually submit ur i-485 and i-130.

But are u sure "welcome notice has been mailed to you" means i am approved.

Yes, it's in less than 3 weeks. We're all set but the wedding album which is not ready yet (we just have digital pics--I'll print some myself) and the joint lease (I have to renew the lease with my wife and I'll do it prob tomorrow).
