Am sure it is all good. Be optimistic. Whatever happens, it happens for a reason.
I thought so about J1 issue. Well... atleast you can be more flexible now in terms of relocation to under served area.

I absolutely agree with this suggestion. Gregspirited the family category is moving well too and your spouse should have her gc in a couple of years if applied under the family category.Choose CP when it comes to that crucial stage and it could maybe even shave off a few more months/years .
Atleast now I hope you get a chance to stay close to your spouse.Man your case really brought a tear to my eyes . What a struggle each one of us goes through to get the coveted gc !!!!!
Wish you the very best.
I was able to file my 485 last week. I have couple of questions
1. I took my medical last month , I moved to a new apartment during the first of this month and filed 485 on 14th Feb with my new address. So my medical report has the old address and 485 has old address. Will this be an issue? What is the worst case, am I expecting an RFE?
2. Also when is the A Number allocated? In my medical form the A number is empty. My understanding is that the A Number is allocated after filing 485. I found the A number in my 485 receipt. Is this correct?
I appreciate your help.
You need to file AR-11 , change of address form immediately.( within 10 days of move). As long as you file AR-11, you are ok.
1. Just make sure to have filed AR-11 to document the address change. Once you do it online, you can print it out too for your records.
2. A number is ok to be left blank on the medicals. A number maybe allocated on filing I-485 for secondaries, while for primary, in most cases, it is the A number as already allocated during the I-140 phase.
Thanks guys for your wishes !
mysati, gcseeker,
Thanks for your empathy...J1 is a very tough visa. She had to choose J1 for her medical residency since I didn't even have EAD at that time "God proposes USCIS disposes" ;-)....Once you are in J1 getting GC is a long process. She is eligible to apply only after the waiver requirements, which typically takes 2-3 years after her residency. So family category or having her own EB2 category is moot for now....:-)
Its like we can't fully enjoy the benefits of GC..although i should not complain since it helps me move closer to her and get a job that I want...
by longwait100 on trackitt.....I corrected little bit....
TSC scorecard for the Nov filers on trackitt so far:
Total applications received = 321
Approved applications = 104
RFEs = 34
total adjudicated applications = 137
-------------------------------------------
Applications still collecting dust = 184
TSC adjudication score = 42%
So there are about 58% Nov trackitt fillers whose fate is still hanging in balance @TSC

Can any one here please help me out in reaching an L2 officer? I tried calling customer service ( numer listed on our receipts) couple of days ago as I did not get my EAD yet, I am( in fact customer service also) do not have a clue if it was L2 officer. I Just want to make sure that they got my email ID correct and also want to talk to them about my 485 case also
Hoping someone can help clarify this..
My husband's and my APs' were approved this AM and a notice has been USPSd. But both our EADs are still in Initial Review. FP is not until Feb 27th. TSC
Is this normal or are both EAD and AP supposed to be approved together? I thought this was a combo card or something
To add fuel to the early walk-in fingerprinting fire, my wife and I walked into the Phoenix ASC today. Her appointment was for Mar 1st in PHX and mine was for Mar 8th in NYC. We had no issues. Service with a smile. In and out in about 45 minutes.
The reason we chose to walk in early is that my wife is ready to pop our daughter out and I didn't want to be driving her straight from the ASC to the hospital (or vice versa) next week.
Its not a requirement(or may be it is who knows), but TSC seemed to have been following it. but i have friends from TSC who got EADs before biometrics appointment.
Strangely one a dec filder has FP apptmt at the end of feb whic is a little off for TSC, they were pretty efficient about Biometrics.
