Its not that USCIS would approve based on Indian States , the actual discussion was what if any background checks are run in the native place also?
If so, tackle & I imagine that TN will be the last state to get cleared:)
Don't worry TN, there is lot of competition among the states for the last spot there :)

My application reached TSC just a few days later compared to yours however the FP appointment was literally given end of Jan ( probably due to CA centres being logjammed) .
Atleast with TSC...PD is irrelevant right now within the short window of Nov/Dec Filers.
Hmmm... I am from TN too. One of my friends from MH with PD 06/07 (PWMB) is still waiting (TSC). I think luck plays some role here.Quote:

But like I said, I am not an expert :)
quick update.... Got the cards in the mail today.... as pdmay08 mentioned before, i should have gone for finger printing in suit and all... but no complaints... couldnt have asked for more...
oh ya... for the statistics... i was born in telangana but raised in andhra... dont know if that helped my case ;-) .... Just kidding... I wish all of you get GC asap... Jai Ho...
Polapragada,
Let me say this upfront - i don't want to pick a fight with you :)
I noticed from your signature that you filed an I140 amendment (SOI), how long did it take for you to get the I140 amendment approval? I work for a management consulting firm which got merged with a larger company and i was required to file an 140 amendment - just wondering how long does it take to get this approved? I am a Nov filer with Sept'07 PD.
I will really appreciate your response. Thanks.

Guys, many of you asked this.
basically if your case status says mail picked by USPS, you directly call customer service, and say you need tracking number. They will verify your case status and redirect you to higher level officer who will verify your name, date of birth, address and provide you the USPS tracking number.
If your case status says card is ordered and should get within 30 days, the customer service person will ask you to wait for 30 days to be over, and depending on your luck may redirect you to higher level officer.
This is applicable only to "cards" , EAD/AP or Green card.
To make it easy...this is what i followed...Quote:

Now that you are a free bird, you should seriously consider options to explore your creative talents - your lyrics and vocal - simply awesome!
Completed fingerprinting this AM. Went in a couple hours earlier than the time listed, but there wasn't a big crowd so we were taken in immediately. They took at least 20 prints from each angle for both my spouse and myself. Just the index finger for my 7 year old :) We were in and out in 30 mins.
Can some one make sense of this
I have got my EAD approval notice. I got three different emails and following is the content and time line:
Friday, February 10, 2012 9:45 PM
Application Type: I765 , APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION
Your Case Status: Card/ Document Production
Tuesday, February 14, 2012 1:30 PM
Application Type: I765 , APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION
Your Case Status: Card/ Document Production
Tuesday, February 14, 2012 11:00 PM
Application Type: I765 , APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION
Your Case Status: Post Decision Activity
How come the steps went backwards in this case. Do I need to be concerned, or it is some random things happening for apparently no reason.
TSC||PD May 29 2008||RD Jan 06 2012 ||FP Feb 07 2012||Walk in FP Jan 24 2012 || EAD/AP ||GC
Dont worry the same status changes happened to me as well, my EAD application is updated everyday, god know why

Teddy, Indiaeb2, leo007
Any updates from your side on the RFE?
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
My attorney filed the RFE response today. It was for Birth Certificate. I had to include a birth certificate and a notarized sworn affidavit from my mother that I'm really her son. Wonderful, isn't it? :)

No speculations please, I'd prefer someone who has more than "I think" answer. I am sorry. I know an attorney would be best choice, but just wanted your views.
I'm thinking it may have been misplaced.my bc had all names and fully spelled. It was taken within 2 months from birth too. So no additional proof must be needed.

I downloaded a list of documents from this forum and was just reading it and got confused by the statement below.
Birth Certificates: A copy of an extract of a "Registered" birth certificate, for all applicants as well as children not applying with you, is required.
Could this be a typo?
Buddy, check my response in "BC Related thread".
