我和老婆的 case 都在Nebraska Service Center (NSC)，都是 outside of the processing date (July 30, 2005 in NSC’s bulletin on April 21, 2006)。我周二、周三分别打电话要求做 inquiry。今天就收到两份 email response:
My/My wife's I-485 cases were filed on May 2005 and the I-485 notification date was May 24/2005 (EB2 RIR with my employment, priority date of my labor was July 2002). The last update to both cases was July 2005 after fingerprint. I-140 and Advanced Parole (already renewed this year), EAD were received in around July 2005.
The responses:
My case:
The status of this service request is:
Based on your request we researched the status of this case. You case remains
pending until a visa is available for you and your security checks are
completed. For further visa issuance info, please refer to www.travel.state.gov.
My wife's case:
The status of this service request is:
Your I-485 application is awaiting assignment to an officer. You will be
notified when a decision is made on your case, or if additional information
should become necessary.
What does these mean?
For me, I think I am still in security check (name check?). 不过，那句话可以两种理解（看来是 officer 手写的，所以 Your case 错写成 you case）：
1) You case remains pending, until a visa is available for you AND your security checks are
completed.
2) You case remains pending until a visa is available for you. And your security checks are
completed.
For my wife, is it even worse by "awaiting assignment"? Or better in that “assignment” should be the last step in which a USCIS officer reviews the case with security check result and makes decision.
请 xiaobaitu / 二分钱 帮忙看看！
万分感谢？
