Congrats!

Good luck Neil and Yaya! At least the wait was a lot shorter than your last interview...

Congrats!!!

Congrats Gene!!!

It should look something like this... The form itself is a I-797C but references the case type I-485. removed external image

Congrats!!! Nice and fast like it should be...

Good luck and safe travells, Alex!!!

I have to agree with you. The stupidity never ends. What difference is there in giving the stamp in the passport and issuing the card? Why can't they do the security check during the two years while the card/residency status is 'temporary'?

Congrats and welcome home!!!

This isn't an issue with software, format, or copy protection. The drive will NOT read the disc! I have a fairly new DVD-R drive that refuses to read certain CD-R media for whatever reason. I have an older and slower CD-R drive in the same machine that reads any CDR I throw at it. It is probably a disc manufactured with some uncommon dye and the DVD drive simply can't adjust it's laser to read the disc's data. Since you CAN read the disc on other machines, why not just copy the disc contents to your harddrive and burn a new VCD using some media that you know your DVD drive can read? This is much easier and less expensive than trying to upgrade/repair/replace hardware. VCD Easy (http://www.vcdeasy.org/) is a pretty good VCD authoring package, though it's not free anymore. I might still have the install files from the freeware version if you need them...

So sorry to hear of your situation... Hang in there! If your wife wants to come back here, you can get through this...

From what I have read, this is an effort by USCIS to reduce the backlog. This has been happening with some frequency lately. I posted recently about cases transferred to CSC that were deemed interview waivable... http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=13494 Congrats johns!!! Hopefully more CFL'ers will be benefitting from this in the near future!!!

Our hearts go out to you both... The lack of transparancy in these situations is just horrible. Phil, have you tried to contact the offices of your congressional represntative or either of your senators? Others in your situation seem to have had some success in shaking the trees.

Congrats!!!

It seems the rumors about this last month are now coming true. In order to reduce backlog, I-485 cases that have been flagged as 'interview waivable' have been transferred to CSC for processing. However, just because a case has been flagged as waivable does not mean that it will be waived. Cases can still recieve RFEs or be referred back to the district office for an interview. Thus far, five cases on VJ have been approved w/o interviews. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...20entry727859 Keeping our fingers crossed that ours comes up soon...

I've been monitoring the CSC transfer issue on VJ, and it seems finally there is a transferred case that had I-485 approved without an interview. http://britishexpats.com/forum/showthread.php?t=332357 Been a month now since the transfer and the utter lack of activity on these cases is making me nervous...

Congrats! Your I-485 processed very quickly! Hope some of that rubs off on our case! Best of luck to you!!!

Congrats!

Congrats!!! B)

Did you visit your current wife on the 1992 visit? I hate to say it, but it sounds like that might have raised a red flag with the VO. Even if you did visit your wife in 1992, it conflicts with the years that you were previously married. I'm just speculating, but I wonder if the result would have been different had you only included visits that were recent and well documented. I understand how disappointed you both must feel, but you will overcome this. Keep the faith!!!

On visajourney they refer to this as a 'touch' versus having the status of your case actually be updated. From what I've gathered in my short time reading posts there, touches are generally considered good because it indicates that someone actually handled the case on that day. It seems some members (of VJ) check their status daily and track the dates of all touches and updates.

Try DynaSky as an alternative. I ended up switching to this service from OneSuite. The interface on the website is almost identical, but I found the local access numbers a bit more reliable and the call quality slightly better.
