Why not to go for early FP...or at least not TOO early...
Take my case as an example :
I did my Fingerprinting at the local Dallas office on March 29, 2003, using the FP notice mailed to me. Appointment date : May 2, 2003
The AVM & Online Status changed to:
"On April 16, 2003, the results of your FP review for your 485 application to adjust to permanent Resident Status were received and processing has resumed on your case. We will mail you a notice if further action is needed or when a decision is made."
All was good until this point. Then...
On April 24, I received a copy of the FP Notice that was originally mailed to my attorney but for whatever reason was undeliverable. It got returned to INS and they forwarded it to me.
The AVM & Online Status then changed to:
"On April 22, 2003, the document we made based on the approval or registration of this case was mailed directly to the person to whom issued."
Now, I fear they may see it as "FP not done" and not process the case further, as is the case with some of you other guys.
Early FP didn't really do much benefit, I just hope it hasn't screwed something up.
Just wanted to share my thoughts with some of you other guys considering Early FP.
How many others like my case?????
