    Looks like TSC got up today. Let's see if they can clear some backlog today. My RD is 01/04/2012, still no signs. Good luck every one.

He went on to add that you need to wait 30-60 days for a response. to which I said, I know that is the standard lead time however I'm glad to know that it is being looked at as of today, to which he said "yes"
    Sorry, my comment should have been directed to tackle. I saw your earlier post. I'm confident you'll hear back within a week. If tackle hasn't had his case assigned to an officer yet, that's worrying and he needs to take action.

    If they are churning out so many approvals in a day, then the review time of a file should be in hours and not days. What do you think?

    Do we have to wait for 45 days to take InfoPass appointment after opening the SR?

    When I am trying to take Infopass appointments it's giving me following message:

    Case Services follow-up appointment - If it has been over 45 days since you contacted NCSC and have not received a response to your inquiry. You must bring the Service Request ID Number related to your inquiry to the appointment.

    Congratulations Indani!! I did see when you posted your greening but then I had trouble logging in and then I was out of town for business.

    What about Tackle? Did he get greened?

    Hello Guys,

    I got following two messages for I485 at separate times today, what does the second message means. Appreciate your QUICK RESPONSE on this.

    1. On October 2, 2013, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.
    This step applies to applications that result in an applicant receiving a card (such as a "green card") or other document (such as a naturalization certificate, employment authorization document, travel document, or advance parole). Applications will be in this step from the time the order to produce the card/document is given until the card/document is produced and mailed to the applicant. You can expect to receive your card/document within 30 days of the approval of your application.

    2. On October 2, 2013, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later. If you move before receiving your card, please call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.
    During this step the formal decision (approved/denied) is written and the decision notice is mailed and/or emailed to the applicant/petitioner. You can use our current processing time to gauge when you can expect to receive a final decision.

    You got your GC. Don't get paniced if you see your status again to decision. It moves back and forth. At least it happened to me. Got 8 to 10 email/sms.

    Congrats Vkkpnm, You could go to a local USCIS office and get GC stamped in your passports, just show them the travel plans with tickets etc..

    Hi Matt,

    Is that feasible? I hope it will not create any problem in coming back?

    Thanks

    Vkkpnm,

    it is very well feasible. Check for I-551 stamping, and is considered as temporary evidence for GC ( valid for one year). if the USCIS officer at your local office is convinced, it can be done. I am not sure, whether you require an infopass appointment for I-551 stamping. Your travel details and tickets may be good enough to make your case. Previously I-551 was a common practice, and these days USCIS officers are strict in issuing the same. But there is no harm in trying it out.

    Thanks a lot Matt. This is really helpful.

    A separate question: Do we get text for USPS tracking# as well as we had in case of our EAD card production?

    Yes we receive the text/email, at that time USPS tracking number can be obtained from the online case status page.

    Not sure where to ask this question about I-485 processing. Does anyone have any experience with their status getting stuck in "Extended Review"? Not "Additional Review" but Extended review. Thanks!

    Looks like they are approving Aug 2013 first time filers (EB2I). There are about 6 approvals reported in trackit. Does it mean that the backlogs are cleared?

    Spouse got her CPO email today.
    Mine was approved in August with PD of Oct 07.
    Spouse received RFE same day for birth certificate.
    We got it fixed from www.meeseva.gov.in (State of Andhra Pradesh).

    Hope it helps someone who has birth certificate issues.....

    Joseph,

    You are correct at pointing that out. Many on this forum believed that the approvals will take 4 months for the first time filers. It doesn't look like that. Approvals have started for the first time filers and this changes the predictions for FY 2014.

    It does not take 4 months time frame to get approvals. Same thing happened in 2012, some of the applicants who applied on Jan 1st 2012 got approvals around March 1st or 2nd week of 2012. It all depends on when the finger prints are completed and all the background checks are completed. If the officer happens to see the file again, he can just complete the approval process right away.

    I got CPO text notification on my case at 5:30 PM today. Received Email notification around 5:45 PM. Still waiting on my wife's approval. It is still stuck at "RFE Response Review".

    All it took was 2 RFEs, 1 SR, Senator & Congressman Inquiry. Now, I'm worried about my wife's case. I opened SR only on my case. I kind of assumed that dependent cases will be bundled along with primary and so didn't bother opening a Service Request. I'll wait until tomorrow and if nothing happens, call USCIS and raise a SR for her case.

    Thanks everyone for your well wishes.
