dec2008 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Congratulations to all !! When do you think people who applied for 485 in 2011 will start getting approvals? Some of the approved cases have PD later than that for my case. Do you think they reserve visa numbers for 2011 applied cases too? Link to comment
Chetan_Chetan Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 How long should one continue to wait? It was comparatively easier to wait the last 5 years than last 2 weeks! When is it prudent to contact USCIS to remind them of my case? Many people keep mentioning about SR or Infopass, would anybody care to explain what are these things?

naivete Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Anybody with jul'07 PD got approvals yet ? Mine's Jul 6th. Good to see some approvals with late june PDs. I'm hoping we will get to jul in the next couple of weeks. Link to comment
norelaxcozh1 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Congratulations to all !! When do you think people who applied for 485 in 2011 will start getting approvals? Some of the approved cases have PD later than that for my case. Do you think they reserve visa numbers for 2011 applied cases too? Congrats!!! to all those got approved in October bulletin... As there will be only 2800 per employment category per country, most of these visa numbers will go to all the applications applied in July/Aug '07 fiasco and are current in Oct, Nov bulletins... If there are any visa numbers left out then new 485's might see approvals... I think (this is just my feeling and I don't know the exact demand data) most of the 485's applied after July/Aug '11 might see the approvals after the spill over starts or if there is a quarterly spill over then it might start before.... My spouse's application was filed in July 2011.... As usual we cannot predict USCIS way of working.... Link to comment

1234th Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 I see a very slow movement for the OCT numbers if at all, my PD: 15th May 2007 and still no updates, however I have seen some members getting approved with earlier/later PDs. How does this process work: does USCIS usually clear most of the applicants before the "current" month ends? Or in our case can the approval process spill into Nov and Dec months? I understand there are always exceptions based on the complexities of the case that might delay things. Can someone shed some light on how USCIS actually picks up and processes the applications? Is it based on 485 filing date or 485 received date/notice date? My 485 Received date: Aug 15th 2007 and Notice Date: Oct 11th 2007 Link to comment
jungleeravana Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 PD date : June 18, 2007 I485 applied - 2007 Texas Service Center Today it said "Card Production ordered".

magicbroom Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Hello All, In the same boat as many on this forum I guess. No news from TSC (my receipt notice starts with SRC) My priority date: April 23, 2007 Received by service center: Oct 6, 2007 All biometrics done in 2008. Online status: Initial review Is everything normal? Should we contact USCIS proactively on this? Do I have to wait till November or December? Any shared experience will probably give some insight - although it does appear that the entire movement of approvals has been very random. Best wishes to all Link to comment
magicbroom Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Hello all, In the same boat as many on this forum I guess. Service center- TSC PD: April 23, 2007 All biometrics done No RFE 2 changes in jobs since then I guess all approvals are happening pretty randomly - but any shared experience may help. Should we contact USCIS proactively? Should we wait until October is over? Best wishes to all.. Link to comment

Should we contact USCIS proactively? Should we wait until October is over? Best wishes to all.. My PD was 05/17/2007 and I did contact USCIS after seeing some approvals with later PD (mine was NSC). Immediately after creating the SR I got the emails about Decision and Card Production the very next day. Not really sure if the SR caused this or not though! Hope that helps! Link to comment
