NSC I-485 approved, Two I-485 work better than re-link

Current Status: Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident.

I got the emails for my whole family today (9/6/07).

Thanks everyone who shares their info here. It’s really helpful during the painful and frustrating waiting period of time.

Hats off to Xiaobaitu, radiology, pjang, lyon, toosad, mytwocents and other warmhearted people!

Here is the info for your reference:

I-140 (EB1a, EB1b, EB2-NIW): VSC
PD August 2005,
AD Jan. 2006
Approved at the same day.

I-485 (NIW): still pending
RD: Sep. 2005, VSC, to TSC Mar. 2007, to NSC May 2007
FP1: Oct. 2005,
FP2: May, 2007
FP3: Aug, 2007 (I got this one after I called NSC, code2)


I-485(EB1a), NSC, Approved
RD: Mar. 2007
FP: Jun. 2007 (I called NSC to request this one)
AD: 09/06/07

Notes:
1. NC was cleared after writing to FL: letter sent April, 2007, NC cleared one month later, result informed by FBI.

2. tried to relink my first I-485 to EB1a when the PD was current July 2006 through mails and phone calls, never got any response.

3. applied 2nd I-485 after 9months relink attempt and DOS prediction of EB2 retrogression

4. Latest LUD was 8/24 on two types I-485. Many LUD during the whole process: 1st FP done, transfer, code 2 FP done…

5. called NSC several times recently by POJ method, was told everything was ready, but No visa # assigned, was in the staging area… (sometimes still told NC pending)

6. contacted congressman, senators: Useless.

Good luck to everyone!
