Friends,
Received our FP Notices today. Scheduled date is 12/29/2011, but I am planning to go earlier than that. Weird thing is that they have sent FP notice for my kid as well - just ridiculous!!! . Has anyone else experienced the same thing?
EDIT: Ok - so after some googling-poogling i understand that this is not a one-off case. We have to take the child for FP as well - only diff is that, for child only 1 finger is taken. The child is signified with "code 2" on the FP notice while for us it's "code 3". Checking with lawyer in any case....
Got receipts today. updated signature.
- receipt numbers not being able to find in case status check, I am not worrying on it, hopefully they update their systems soon. the numbers are LIN*, for NSC
- wife's PD as 12/1/2011, and preference classification blank, lawyer says its ok
Guys,
I just received USCIS Case Status Update email:
EAD(I765): On December 9, 2011, we ordered production of your new card.
AP(I131): On December 9, 2011, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I131 APPLICATION FOR USCIS TRAVEL DOCUMENT.
Guys,
following this blog for a long time and finally have the courage to post.

Hi All,
I was gathering all the documents needed for I485 filing and noticed that in the copy of I140 I had with, we have a typo in the PD field , instead of Mar 26, 2008, it says May 26, 2008.
I checked the copy of labor petition and it clearly says the filing date is 03-26-2008.
Will this cause any delay in filing my 485 ? what will the lawyers do in such cases ? should I have to wait for my I140 to be corrected ?
anybody from TSC got a whiff of EAD/AP?....
I am now able to see my application status online. Earlier, the website won't even recognize the receipt nos. Everthing is in "initial review"

Guys, Finally I received my EAD / AP, a single card with exp date of 12/05/2012. I expected EAD to have 2 years, but it is valid for just 1 year and I still waiting for FP notice.
I blocked my tickets for next month 11th and hope that we will be done with FP by that.
Received FP Notice today for 12/30.
Does Application Service Center follow Federal Holidays calendar?
Received physical receipts in the mail on 12/10/2011
I thought they are issuing it with two years validity. But after reading this it looks like if the PD is current they issue for 1 year and if the date has retrogressed then they give for 2 years. So it's on case-to-case basis.
Excerpt:
Quote:
USCIS will decide whether to renew an EAD for either a one or two year validity period based on the most recent Department of State Visa Bulletin.
.......
For applicants who have an available immigrant visa number and who are filing for employment authorization under 8 C.F.R. Section 274.a.12(c)(9), USCIS will continue to grant EADs that are valid for one-year. USCIS may issue a two-year renewal EAD if the applicant’s immigrant visa availability date retrogresses (when actual demand for visa numbers exceeds forecasted supply) after the Form I-485 is filed.
Just now god receipts from attorney.....
Guys,
Finally my I-485 packet has been sent from my employer's office on 12/08, received CIS on 12/09.
When can I expects receipt notices in mail?
When can I expect FP appointment?
When can I expect My F R E E D O M (GC) [PD 01/16/2008]
Thanks
You can see some of the signatures of the users on this site. They will help you give a rough estimate based on your Service Center.
Receipts: 2 Weeks
FP Notice: 4 to 6 weeks
GC: I don't know...
Exactly! That's the logic behind it.
Hi,
My application was mailed to Phoenix(USPS tracking). So which service center does it belong to. I dont see any Phoenix service center as such. Does it go to Texas service center. Receipt numbers start with SRC.
?SC | PD: Dec, 2007 | RD: 02-Nov, 2011 | ND: ?| FP Notice: ?| EAD/AP(Email notification ): ?
SRC is Texas. http://www.immihelp.com/directory/servicecenters.html
Instead of mailing out of my application on Nov 30th, my lawyer delayed it for no reason and mailed out on 2nd Dec. According to the paralegal, the application was received on Monday, 5th Dec. My checks are not cashed yet. I did not sign up for e-notification. Anybody else who mailed their applications on 2nd Dec and yet to see their checks getting cashed?
anyone who filed in October got their EAD/AP or 485 from TSC?
Guys, Finally I received my FP notice today with 12/29/12 appointment in Norridge IL. Now, I am all set for my India trip next month after 7 years. Good Luck to all.

My Application was mailed on the 2nd as well. I believe they received the packet on 5th (assuming it was sent via FedEx). In my case my lawyer didn't delay the process rather I dropped the packet on December 1st. I was expecting the lawyers office to take a few days rather they submitted everything immediately. Does it matter few days here or there? My check was cashed on the 9th.
I think application content would matter. In my case, I have two I140 with different priority date and category. My lawyer has requested for "REQUEST FOR CONVERSION OF EB-3 PRIORITY DATE TO EB-2 PETITION". I am guessing that my case is under review with VO before they cash out my check and issue me receipt.
