    Well, given the importance of RD, and seeing as how the 2009 PD folks will start to receive their receipt notices soon I'm just concerned. Tell me this, are the checks cashed before the receipt notices are sent out? It's 13 days and they haven't cashed the bloody check yet. I've never been this concerned about someone not taking my money!

    No Receipts yet.
    My employer made out my checks. I have no visibility into it.

    Thanks Soggadu. Let's hope we will get it soon. Did both you get different approval notices? My wife's had 2 pages, saying both EAD and AP are approved whereas mine had only 1 page and said only EAD was approved though I did receive the combo card.

    .
    Well, in my case checks were cashed and then notice.
    Checks are wired electronically, so even if you access your account you wont see check image, but just a debit entry.
    Can you see the fedex/ups tracking that your package is delivered ? What's the lockbox u sent it to ?

    Hello Gurus,

    I have a requirement to change my job location to a location not listed on my H-1B application (with same employer). My application mailed last week Monday, not received notice yet for Finger print or anything yet. Can i do it without filing for change in location or should I wait until i receive EAD?

    Thanks username (btw, what's your actual username )

    I just called the FBI number and verified the status for me and family. The prints were processed and result status sent to USCIS on the same day. The rep was super friendly and courteous. So atleast one thing is confirmed that the USCIS is not waiting on FPs.

    Pedro :
    I doubt if it is based on receipt date. In July 2007, a similar event occurred. But I doubt if GC was issued based on receipt date as there is enough data to prove that is not the case. My belief is that approvals are based on the PD, followed by the receipt date with the variant being the efficiency of the officer picking up the case.

    Sogaddu thanks for posting excellent analysis by imireform on Trackitt, Immireform thanks for putting things in the right perspective for everyone. So a lot of people including NSC filers are waiting just that NSC is ahead. You are right about the 2 months time span on the delay for TSC folks. PS – Iam also TSC.

    If it is Jan 27th, you can expect the receipts from USCIS by Feb 2nd week. Your RD and ND will be a lot earlier than Feb 2nd week, but that is when you would know the dates.

    I believe i am in a unique situation. According USPS website EAD/AP cards were delivered on Jan 30th, but we didnt receive them. Contacted USCIS and got tracking numbers of USPS. That also says the same thing. Contacted local USPS and they say the same thing. Contacted USCIS and they opened a service ticket for the same. But they say i have to wait for 15 days to resolve it or so.

    I am moving from IL to FL on 10th of this month.

    Gurus, any suggestions in this case.

    One can also see that TSC receives disproportionately larger amount of applications. I hope TSC has the staff to cope with it.

    KD that’s a good catch, the TSC numbers are quite high for the nov filers they are almost double, Oct filers the proportion is even more lopsided.

    Thanks, Teddy. At the going rate and the lopsided distribution, it may happen that USCIS will never be able to process enough applications to consume the FY 2012 total quota, forcing Mr. CO to take the cut-off dates as forward as possible to generate CP case demand - a la July 2007 in slow motion. This theory is gaining ground even in other forums.

    Ask USPS who signed for it. Probably your appt manager (incase you live in one)

    Wouldn't a simpler, fairer decision be to move more of the applications from TSC to NSC instead? It's not like the DoS hasn't processed 140,000 visas before this year. Yes, they had a huge backlog of preadjudicated cases to bank on for the last few years, but the 140K limit existed before 2007. Also, they have nearly the whole year to work through these. At the rate they appear to be going, I would have thought that it would be far more likely that the annual quota would get used up well before Fiscal Q4 (July). Am I totally missing something? I have been out of the conversation for the last 6 weeks so I may well be talking out of the side of my head here.

    Does this also mean that FBI name-check is complete? Isn't finger-printing only a small portion of the actual name-check process? I think the FBI name-check FAQs page says that we need to contact the agency that requested for name-check to get status-update on name-check. Isn't that true?

    TSC is stuck in Pre-July 2007 era, NSC already got into 2008. I believe there is no limit on how many visas a particular SC can issue, it possible that NSC may exhaust FY quota by getting into mid 2008. If TSC has lot of volume left at July-2007 era, It may not touch Nov filers. I am scared.

    Nishant bhai

    How have you been. Congrats on the EAD approval . Hope you definetly qualify for the low hanging fruit.

    It is puzzling to me to hear the approval irrespective of PD theme from various forums/blogs. USCIS should techincally be gating the final approval with PD...but looks like in order to meet their percentages they will indeed for the low hanging fruit...or maybe it does not make sense to keep somebody waiting when all their paperwork is in order irrespective of PD. Throws out the whole concept of an PD ...

    Consular processing in this scenario will pay the biggest reward to those brave ones who would have opted for it...though the burden of providing paperwork would be huge.

    It right now feels like a game of musical chairs....whoever gets an empty chair can sit ...the rest will be left standing(post May bulletin when retrogression is expected to hit )
