[Pdmar08]

Have some nice coffee and pay a visit to Bruce Lee's grave

congrats.

Nishant...nice.
Yeah i really wish i can sit down clamly and have a coffee. But there is a firedrill going on at work.
For kicks i wanted to the canadian border and swing by over the weekend.

At this point i m thinking i dont want to worry any more...not about gc but about work and all....give it my best..go all out.
I remember in 3 idiots Raju says in the interview "darr sir...darr mai darta raha"
i m similar but dont want to be fearful anymore.

Q, mysati, reachme_s, dec2007, Kanmani thank you for your wishes and good luck to those waiting.

Hi gc5000, my employers were willing to file a premium processing but it seems USCIS didn't accept giving some vague reasons.

Now that gclongwait has got his GC, i guess i'll be the new gclongwait on the forum

Hello Sandeep, why don't you go with premium processing for I140. I know it will cost you around $1000-1200 extra but still an option.

congrats leo7 is now green leo7

Received my physical GC. In fact it's really green as in dollar bill green )

About online status check for Feb filers: Based on my random queries, the difference between my receipt number and the receipt number for which record is available has gone down from yesterday's 4K to 800. It seems records are there but available only if EAD/AP has been approved or some action has been taken after FP is done. My FP was completed yesterday, so I hope I will be able to check my record next week.

[nishant2200]

once again, that place I am talking about, somehow reached my heart. I sat on a nearby hill, overlooking the city and quietly thinking. The words on Brandon Lee's grave, Bruce Lee's son are worth remembering:

"Because we don't know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. And yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you can't even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four, or five times more? Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless..."

Nishant...nice.

Friends,
We have finally received CPO email for my wife as well, bringing my 11 year journey in the USA to fruition.
Surviving the last 5 years with the employer has been a challenge and I am glad we are through this now.

I wish each and everyone waiting for their GC to get their GCs ASAP.

Thank you one and all for your support on this forum.

Thanks.

[nishant2200]

wonderful, congratulations.

Hello Sandeep, why don't you go with premium processing for I140. I know it will cost you around $1000-1200 extra but still an option.

Premium procesing not available for 140 amendment. PP is only for fresh 140s.

Sandeep, i guess we need to wait atleast a month to get our 140 approved...mine too similar case as urs...comp. got acquired after my original 140 was approved...acquistion hapend 3 years ago.

when concurrent filing is done, i think adjudication happens when amended 140 is approved.

[gc5000]

Okay. I was not aware of this fact. Thank you for this info. Can you go for SR after certain time limit similar to I485?

Good luck to you.

Guys, got CPO mail some time back.

God has been kind, though i came to the US first in 2002(first because in between i was not here for a few months) and filed in 2008 the trouble i went thru in between pales in comparison with may of the folks on the forum. Yes its was like the end of the world when my PERM was denied and then in audit for 2 years(just not knowing anything was agonizing). There were many uncertainities over last 2-3 years but again, life and god has been kind.

I honestly think my processing got a boost simply by logging on to this forum.

I had originally thought i will send a note to the tune of Aayo re.....aayo re from Swades but it hasnt sunk in and will wait on the celebrations for many others on the forum to get greened.

My only major contribution to the forum has been the doc on post #1 of this thread which has been read by over 100 people( and no, it was not me clicking it again and again) which makes me feel good.

Goodluck all!!

We were also not able to track our receipt online. But once EAD/AP was approved, we were able to track it.

[vizcard]

Does the case status online change after FP (soft LUD?)

[longgcque]

I dont think so based on what I have seen from forum comments. Did not see a LUD on my case after FP

[BBear123]

Hi guys,
Update, got my EAD card in the mail today.

Edit: I believe this serves as the AP as well. Hoping feb filers start seeing their respective cards soon.

[ramchand]

Congrats BBear123, were you able to see your case status online before receiving the EAD cards?

Thanks! We need your avatar back though. We need to get Teddy greened this week. Absolutely, I want Teddy to get GC this week. I must admit mine was a very complicated case, not just because of the amount of papers that I have thrown at CIS over the past 14 years and the number of applications filed with them. But also because I switched companies and been through acquisitions 3 times. It's a library of applications for a individual reviewer to look at. In that respect, TeddyK's is a very easy application. it just need to get to the reviewers hand to be approved.

Thanks Buddy!, if we can get our TeddyK out this week, that would be a real Dhamaka!

I have good news to share with you guys.... 485 has been Approved...I used to follow all the posts from TEDDY,LEO,SOGGADU and everybody...Congrats to all those who got approved in the past few days ... This is one of the best forums....

I hope Teddy will get it by end of this week...
