Discuss Javier944's I-485 USCIS Case

any updates?

Nothing yet. I did e-request and received email saying USCIS will review and process the request and I should expect a reply by July 28, 2014.

I received the following email responding to my e-request

Your case is still pending consideration. We regret that we are not able to give you a time frame for when we will complete the review of your case.

Anyone knows WTF means?.

Hello. Two months past since our I-140 were approved. Do you have any news about your I-485?

no, what about you?

Nothing. First we were waiting for I-140 much longer than usual, now for I-485

I know... Hopefully we can get the green card anytime soon and we can forget forever this horrible process

This sucks balls. Best of luck with you RFE response!

I have my case under revision. My attorney and I prepared a response stating I do not have any government funds for my J1 program with the purpose of furthering international exchange programs. Being paid from a federal grant does not mean the J1 program is being financed using federal funds because the funds are not given for an international program. It is quite confusing for most of us, but the law is clear, and all those points are clearly stated in the J1 bases (even took me there months to figure it out). I have no cue what the officer can say to me. What can be said of an officer that is asking you to go to your country for two years to fulfill the two years rule, when he has in from of him a letter from the department of state stating the rule does not apply because there is no government funds involved and the skills list does not apply.

Congrats!!!

Congrats. I appreciate the stress you have been through here and with the I-140.
