THE VERMONT SERVICE CENTER FINGERPRINT EXPIRATION IS FIFTEEN MONTHS. ONCE YOU HAVE CROSSED THAT THEY WILL USUALLY ISSUE ANOTHER FINGERPRINT NOTICE. ONCE THAT SECOND FINGERPRINT NOTICE IS GENERATED THEN YOU APPROXIMATE WAITING TIME FOR YOUR I-485 TO BE APPROVED IS LESS THAN FOUR MONTHS. I HAVE FILED OVER 700 CASES AND THIS HAS BEEN THE GENERAL PATTERN I HAVE SEEN.

Did you complain at least once in 700 cases?

If you look at scanned cases, most of them have expired fingerprints.

In my opinion, they don't just "usually" issue 2nd fingerprint notice. Only if a case have been touched. Which means we need to wait first for an officer to pick up a case, then generate 2nd FP notice, then process it. All that can take some time.

HI
MY RD is April 02
FP 06/14/2003

I have seen not many in April RD month and FP around June2002 have received 2nd FPCall.
I was reading somewhere in this forum, that we need to talk to NCSC, which might trigger 2nd FP.
Is that true ???
Or It is initated automatically when your case get touched.

My worry is like If I don't talk to NSCS will that mean I have to wait ??

Any Comments apprceiated.

Thanks
