Is anyone else also in the same situation? I see that many people here have received their FP notices within a month at the most after their receipt dates. Is this still a typical wait time?

I am in the same situation , my ND at NSC is 1/27 , and there has been no action after my reciept notices ... no FP, no EAD , no AP , no nothing .. it is crazy , i am not sure what logical order do they follow. My PD is may 2008.

Hollykick, I can understand having past priority date as May 2008 and ending up on not receiving anything. There are many approvals taken place for 485 for PDs around Nov/Dec 2008. Sadly, they don't follow PDs when dates are current for many. Not logically correct, but it is what it is. You should have taken it much quickly than waiting till end of Jan. I can understand many reasons for late filing, but could have been alarmed when dates moved to March 2008 on Nov bulletin. just my two cents...

Clearly if we are saying it will follow the order when it got to USCIS, then my date was jan 24th, so i am assuming nobody who filed in NSC got an FP after that date isnt it.

Hi,

My I-485 was only sent yesterday and will be delivered today at Arizona center. My PD Nov 2008.

However, I am moving to another state in 2 weeks. My apartment lease will be active for 2 more months.

The apartment has a typical mail box for each unit.

How are the receipt notice, finger print notice etc sent? Do they require signature confirmation?

Is mail forwarding possible?

Thanks

Z
