Has anyone received a letter from USCIS like the one Snowflake mentions in her I485/I130 post on the Family Based side of the forum? Her Post is titled "For those stuck in NC over 180 days" This would be a nice letter to receive. This is what her post said...
I've been to Infopass today. My NC has been pending for over a year and a half, so I fit the "memo". After checking into my case the super friendly IIO handed me a copy of a letter from USCIS dated March 12, 2008 and told me if NC is the only item pending, I should receive the same letter in mail any day. In short, it said...
"As your I-485 Application has been pending over 180 days because of the FBI name check, your application has been approved. If you need immediate service on your case, please contact USCIS or make an appointment with Infopass. If the following box is checked, please bring 2 photograps..." Of course I don't remember the exact words of the document, the main thing is that you should look out for this letter in your mail. They will not except at Infopass just the original document. He told me that as soon as I receive this letter, I should make an Infopass appointment, bring my passport and they will stamp it.
Then he checked the address on file for my application and changed it to my new address. Make sure that the address for that particular application is updated - you can do it online now thru www.uscis.gov just have your receipt number handy.
I hope this is good news to all of us! I don't know when they started sending these letters out. The copy he showed me stated 3/12/8 but the IIO told me that he hasn't seen anyone as of yet to walk in with this document....

Guys, should we believe this letter? Maybe it is only for family based?
|
For me it seemed to be a general letter it did not mention family or employment based.
|
Is it so difficult for them to send and print the gc? It is not much more effort to print the gc and send it, rather than print a letter and send it.
|
This is really good news!!!

I think thats a good idea but I dont see the point of wasting paper rather than producing the GC itself.I went to infopass yesterday but they just confirmed that I've been stuck in namecheck since Nov 2005 but I heard nothing like they are sending anything.I think we have been patient long enough that we can welcome anything which comes on the mail as long as its positive.
