If you haven't done so yet, create an online profile with your cases (765, 485, etc). This is one big favor you can do to yourself.

I submitted my 765, 131, 140 and 485 concurrently in August 2004. I-140 got approved in February '05 and at the same time got FP notice. Went in March for FP (TEN) for all 10 fingers, picture taken and signed. Then I submitted papers for extension of EAD online in May '05. Then made appointment for FP, 2 weeks after the application status received online. I went in and had my FP done. I received my EAD within 90 days. Then in August '05 got RFE on 485. LUD changed for 485 on Nov-7-05. Now waiting....

Good luck to all of us.
Hi ,
I already cerated aprofile and added the I-130 and I-765 to my profile but for some reason i cannot add my i-485 to my account portfolio. It thorws a message that says that case number is invalid. Even the customer service people cant find whats wrong.But whne they forward me to their supervisor, they can see my I-485 status.Wonder whats wromg and how can i fix it?
 
Hi Guys..

I ve just came back from USCIS office. I made and Infopass appointment to ask why my case is taking longer to be approved than the average of the cases that are being processesing in my Local Office.

They told me that they cannot complete my case in the normal time due my Name check is still pending ( my fingerprints were cleared the same day that i submitted them).

Now its been 3 months since i did my biometrics/fingerprints.


Questions:
1)IS NORMAL THAT THE NAME CHECK IS STILL PENDING 3 MONTHS LATER?
2) WHATS THE AVERAGE TIME TO HAVE YOUR NAME CHECK CLEANED?

I am a guy from south america and have an uncommon german surname.....

Ill appreciate any kind of answers.

thanks so much!
 
Well, the problem is that even you can consider that your surname is very uncommon that doesn't mean there are other people who can have your same name. There are a lot of people on this earth and many of them are applying to USCIS :), if they told you that your case is not complete because name check means that probably your name came with a "hit".
Your FP normally are check within 24 hours, is totally different with the name check. Nobody knows how much can take, from 6 months to a lot of time. There are different threats about FBI Name check pending and things like that, that can give you a general idea.
Hang in there,
