Thank you for your input, Q.
Gurus,
Please help !
As posted earlier in the same thread, I received my physical card in mail on 9/12/2013. but my wife's status still shows in Acceptance.
How do I check if my wife's ( dependent) I-485 is connected to my file(Primary). IS it normal procedure for dependent's file getting delayed after primary app if approved?
Both our applications( packaged together and send in one package) reached USCIS Texas service center on 8//1/2013.
Both of us got our fingerprinting done on 8/23/2013 ( early walk-in).
Both got our EAD & AP Combo card on 9/3/2013.
MY I-485 status changed to card production on 9/6/2013 and received physical card and welcome notice on 9/12/2013
Wife' I -485 status still shows in Acceptance. Called customer service and they informed they received finger prints for my wife's application and app is in process. CSR asked us to wait for 4 months before contacting again. How do I know her file was connected to my file and are there instances of dependent getting I-485 rejected. Wife has been on H4 since arriving in US and never been out of status.
Thanks for your help

On a call from Infopass officer, the IO @ NSC told him that since he is out of office in the week of 9/16, he plans to approve or raise RFE before the end of the day- Friday
Well.. no change in case status since Friday...
Can anyone chime in what can I interpret this ?
Thank you,
based on ur info, it looks like ur cases are linked. There are offsets some times. Your wife should see her approval in the next week or so. I wouldn't worry about it just yet.
Appreciate your reply
Thanks

Is 2013 visa over?Pls someone answer.
There is still chance for visas.. also one can hope for visa already assigned to their case, will get no rfe.. its all draw of luck.. if its ur day, then its urs.. not even you can stop gc posting into ur mailbox
Thx rogerfederer..
Do u think we will see some approvals next week or have to wait until oct. 1?
Finally after 13+ yrs, I got my physical green card in my hand. I have spent numerous hours on this site during the long wait. Thank you every one who has contributed meaning fully for this site.

GC approval email on 17th Sep 2013a
Physical GC in hand on 21st Sep 2013
IMO we will see a few starting Oct 1st..how many visas available will depend on decisions they take
we might see few thousand approvals as the uscis has to give visas to everyone who is current. I predict following month COD will move to 2006 or earlier.
Thanks indiani. Is there a basis for saying that the uscis "has" to give visas to everyone who is current? While I would like it personally if that happens (since I am still waiting for approval as well), isn't there the strong possibility that there will not be enough visa numbers for all those who remain current in Oct, thereby forcing a subset to wait another year to become current again?
I don't think if dates are current means approval.. if there r no available visa numbers, there will b no approvals, unless already a number assigned.
If they go absolute safe route, only a few numbers will b available..
On another note.. received my cards today. It took 8 days for usps to show mercy on me :-) from knoxville to destination.. so 2 day priority is not a guarantee..it could take upto a week or more sometimes..but on good note, all the ppl I talked on customer service were nice, were able to help me..
My journey ends here...can u guys remember the days when 90 cents a gallon..that's what I payed first time I filled my tank...:-)
I remember those days, but I was a B1 visitor then. When I first moved here on an F1 in 2003, prices were just over $1.00 a gallon in NC.

I addressed this concern in the EB2-3 Predictions thread. Since your comment immediately succeeds that post of mine, I take it you've read it but don't buy it? The basis for my assertion are the rules the USCIS follows as set in the INA, which are summarized here.

Congrats Roger!
I remember 95 cents per gallon in Michigan. $1.65 used to be summer prices and we would complain that that was too high

I paid 89 cents/g and still waiting .... Just for giggles...
They don't "have" to give visas but usually they do with exception that annual quota is finished at the end of the fiscal year.
Post GC in hand , how long did it take to receive the I 485 approval receipt from USCIS .
I have not yet received the notice, got card in hand over 30 days ago. Is the receipt required .
EB-2 Ind- PD - Dec 07 ( Derivative- primary 485 approved ) ; 485 Applied- Dec 10 2011; Rcvd - Dec 14th 2011; EAD Received - Jan 2012 ; 485 Case x-fer from TSC to NSC : March 2012; 485 RFE Received : April 2012 ; 485 RFE Response Review status : May 2012 ; 485 Address Change : April 2013 ; 485 Online status change: Initial Review April 2013 ; 485 Approval : Aug 20 , 2013 ;
it is not required but better to have one.
its free and they will send you duplicate copy if you call them for free.
My Wife's I-485 online status still shows in Acceptance, my application was approved on 9/6/2013. Since it has not been 4 months (USCIS processing time for TSC) since Receipt Date (8/1/2013). Can I take an INFOPASS appointment or is there any other way to get a status update?
Thanks
There is not much you can do other than wait - INFO PASS will be totally useless since your application is still within 4 months processing timeframe for i-485. You are one of the very few LUCKY first time i-485 filers from Aug 2013 that got approved in 36 days. There are people with PDs in 2004/2005/2006/2007 who have been waiting without luck (myself included) even with congressional inquiries, SRs, INFOPASS etc.
Just relax, your spouse's green card will get approved at some time - whether it is tomorrow, next month, Jan 2014 or July 2014, even USCIS can not tell (depends on lots of variables).
Thanks Pedro. Sorry, I had indeed read your post back then, but in the disappointment of the visas getting over around the same time, I did not quite recall the details now. I sure hope what you say does indeed does happen in terms of having the QSP applied in October. However, one of the things you state in your related posts is the assumption that the QSP should be enough to approve everyone that is current provided the demand is <3000. I guess that is the only variable left to be seen and I sure hope your prediction turns out to be true.
There is something missing here.. 36 days approval, is like winning a lottery :-) .. anyways, its very interesting ur spouse didn't get rfe or approval.. basically now this case is bcak in line where it supposed to b in first place. Luck plays its part again when dates become current again
