We filed for aos on Sept 23 2004, got notice for fingerprinting in 15 days and recived interview letter in October itself.
We had an interview on Dec16'04 which went on very smoothly.The lady adjudicator was very pleasent and she didnt asked many questions.

Interview lasted for 5 mints after which she said the case has been approved but they cudnt stamp my passport because my case was filed under a pilot project .
Dont panic if you dont see the case status changed online because they change it only after they will send you the Welcome letter.
Bottom line i got my welcome letter on 21 jan and card on 23 jan 2005 .

it was a least painful experience.

Please do not deal with WWICS. Their fees is very high but their service stinks. I had one of the worst experiences of my life with them. Trust me you dont want to have anything to do with them. I was anxious about applying for a greencard and was looking for well established company who have done the greencard process so many times that it had become a routine process for them. They messed it up so many times that INS returned my papers many times. When I asked them apply for my advance parole they delayed and dragged their leg on it and sent it to wrong center that I could not go to India for my own wedding.

My 485/adjustment of status has been approved. I was very surprised that it went by so fast. We filed it on march 12'th 2004 and got it approved Dec 10'th. Hope you all have a fast approval too.

I have a priority date for 1997 when I filed for a labor certification. Firstly everything that could have gone wrong has, first they told me I was going to be denied unless my employer could prove that there was a viable job, which held up my case, so after it was approved my I140 and I485 took forever. Then immigration send me a letter telling me my case was now denied due to failure to show up for my fingerprinting appointment, which turned out to be there fault because they had screwed up my receipt number with somebody elses, but it still once again held me up for close to a year. I and my employer have filled out more forms than we know what to do with, they have both our tax forms dating back years and I am still waiting for my last and final interview. Hoping it will be soon but with my luck something will go wrong but i will not give up, i've come too far, I have built my life here in the amount of time this has taken. So if you are worried about the the delay your case is taking please realize that its not you, its the system you are in thats so time consuming....

Dear Friend,

I’m a foreign citizen married to a US Citizen. We filled for change of status on January 2004 I485 and I-140 concurrent file.
I got my SSN and Work Permit and the filling when trough OK. As today 6/24/04 we have some hard problems as couples that involve her using drugs and acting careless (Thing that I did not know before married her). I try to get counsel and her rehab but she is getting worse.

My intention is try to get her to a rehab and get her clean but she refuses, if I proceed legally to do so would I loose my process or there is something in the law that will help me.

My other option is harder:

File for divorce and separate, I heard that in case of domestic abuse the abused person immigrant could file for divorce a keep their status until the BCIS approve change of status. Could be this be my case.

Thanks

Antonio,


PS is there any way that I could email you directly on the site or seek others similar experience, your site is very good thanks for doing such a nice job.

I got my labor clearance and have filed for EAD for my wife and self. My wife wants to start a small business once she gets her EAD. Does any one know if she can do a business with EAD or she has to do a job only?

Will appreciate your help & experience in this matter.

Thanks!

Hi jaya,

You are not alone. I have the same problem, even worse. My EB was approved in 2000, my I485 receipt was on Nov 2001, fingerprinted on Feb 2002, but til now have not heard anything about the status.

I've checked the BCIS status online, it says that they will inform me once decision has been made and usually takes up to 720 days (2 years). In Dec 2003 I called them regarding this and told them that my case has passed 720 days since the date on the 485 receipt, they said that they would inform me by letter about the status within 30 days. But I have not received anything since then.

A friend of mine has similar problem.
Please let me know if there is a progress in your case as we are in the same case.

Thanks.
