Topic: biometrics not loaded in the system???
unfortunately I don't know either. My online status is not updated and still shows pending. so I didn't receive any email.
next week I am going to infopass with my lawyer, hope we can find out more.
Thanks

Buster,
Besides the fingerprinting your dependent just did, Has he/she done it before? I just want to know if the first one ever got lost.
Thanks

Topic: biometrics not loaded in the system???
Hi, all
My I-485 has been approved for 2 months but haven't received the card yet. I received a letter saying that the TSC is waiting for my biometrics to be loaded up in the system. I just called them and they said all I need is waiting (another 3 months as stated in the letter). but my fingerprinting was done in last November.
Have you heard similar story?
Thanks a lot

Topic: become green after 7 years waiting
Dear all:
I just knew my I485 was approved. it is lots of mixed feelings when this moment really arrive. only after joining trackitt, I knew there are lots of sisters and brothers who have been waiting as long as me too and that gave me courage to keep waiting all the time. I wanted to file WOM from July and then the lawyer said I better wait until my received date is within processing date. later the process time even went backward, so I haven't talked to that lawyer again.
TSC is not updating online status. My husband filed 2 I485. first as my dependent, second as primary. we received a denial notice for his second one. it mentioned the first one was approved so second one was denied. then we called customer service and confirmed both our I485 were approved on the same day 10/23. but online status is still pending.
I believe they are processing all the stale cases. consider the huge amount applications since last July, just be patient more. you will have it.
This is a special place where we come from different countries and know nothing about each other but we supported each other because we have one common goal.
Bless you all

Topic: Can you check the status of an SR?
I just called customer service and the IO immediately found out the SR filed earlier, so if you didn't get response after SR was opened for 60 days, you need call them back.
Infopass don't see anything about the SR for my case. Newark, NJ. | |  |  |

Topic: Can you check the status of an SR?
suu1980,
I don't think infopass will give you the status on a SR from my experience. they know nothing but namecheck status and my case is in TSC.
since the SR was opened via customer service, it is better to call them back to check. of course we can't trust just one call, try again. | |  |  |

Thanks again

Topic: Filing Law-suite for not approving PR 2001
before filing law suite, should we ask the lawyer to help on the case first?
that's what I tried. My lawyer said I better wait until my received date is one month beyond current processing date. so I shall contact him later. but I am not sure if a lawyer is capable of doing anything.
Has anyone ever tried this way besides writing letters?
Thanks

Topic: Has anyone got I485 approved with name check pending >180 days?
Thanks for the link, Goblin
I read it and still don't how to relate to the 180 day rule. for example, my name check started in Oct. 2007, when will the 180 day rule be applied to me?
Thanks

Topic: Has anyone got I485 approved with name check pending >180 days?
Hello, All
my name check is pending >180 days. my case is under "additional review". I know there is the new policy that I485 can be approved without namecheck cleared if name check pending >180 days.
I just want to verify if the new policy really start to work.
Thanks

Topic: I received a email reply to a service request on 5/18.
Hello, all
Regarding the "additional review", I did go to infopass. as expected, I got nothing but name check pending.
the IO from Infopass in Newark really know nothing. she kept telling me my case is in TSC and I need write to TSC.
Besides writing to congressman and first lady, what can we do if your case is ready for appoval but it is not?
I plan to find a laywer to help on this. Will this work? Has anyone had experience on this?
Thanks

Topic: I received a email reply to a service request on 5/18.
Thank you all for your responses.
at least I can save a trip for infopass appointment. otherwise I will be disappointed one more time.
if I search my name from google, it only show up 30 entries which are from papers. when I was studying master in China, I helped other students in lab, as appreciation and being nice, they added my name to their papers. ironically, now I wish they never did that. I wish my name doesn't show up anywhere.
when you talk to customer service, how do you know they are contract customer service people or IO?
I will write to congressman. I knew that. but when it is your own turn, you just can't think of anything to do.
Thanks again

Topic: I received a email reply to a service request on 5/18.
Hello,
My I485 was submitted on 6/29/07 but got receipt notice in Oct. An IO opened a service request on 5/18 for outside of time processing. I just received the reply. Does this look familar to you? what can be the additional review? I have been in the same company over my life.
The status of this service request is:
Based on your request we researched the status of this case. We are actively processing this case. However, we have to perform additional review on this case and this has caused a longer processing time. If you do not receive a decision or other notice of action from us within 6 months of this letter, please call customer service at the number provided below.
Good luck to all

Topic: Processing Time frames: RD or ND?
The true answer actually depends on the IO you will talk to.
SUGGESTION: call the customer service to check the status. leave the rest to the IO. the IO will create a service request for you or do nothing. no need to argue if he does nothing but call AGAIN. | |  |  |

Topic: Is there July filers haven't got finger print notice
it seems not. maybe you need call the customer service or go to infopass if it is not far. | |  |  |
|
|
Topic: Any idea how long this case might take?
I think the first thing you need to check is name check. if name check is pending, USCIS can't do anything. | |  |  |

Topic: New information on my case on USCIS website
I just received an email update with the same message. this message is the same as the one from two months ago. I was happy for a moment, now I see many of us got the same message, so it may not mean any progress. | |  |  |

Topic: Very Important Scenario
From my personal experience, it doesn't matter if we change job in the same company. it is just impossible to keep the same position for over 7 years. why would the company try to make any trouble?
if you want to be really safe, you can check with your company lawyer. | |  |  |

Topic: Start to move -- early July filers with LATE receipt
Folks,
I went to infopass to check my case status. it is pending on name check. the name check was initated on Oct.16.
My I485 was received on 6/29, but the receipt notice date is Oct.3. so I called myself early July filers.
I hope I can see more update on this thread from other early July filers. | |  |  |
