I agree with you Duke777 , this is the month for all of us . I have this feeling as well that Maya84 and Intergalactic will hear good news soon . It will be over soon

Duke777 , did your case status changed online ?. My online status still Initial Review !! my approval date was 8/9 !!!!!. I guess something wrong with this service . I thought it would be more accurate. !

[Gurl 1]

Updating Gurl's approval date. Aye!!!! I knew this was our month for approvals... Now it is that time to hear from Maya84 and InterGalactic.. This coming week is your week. Stay Positive!!!!! Hope the maths is right...

thanks Duke. i think that those of us that got approved this late compared to the others is because we have the same person that worked/working on our case.

It is going to change in a couple of days once they order the production of your card. Stay put. with the next two weeks. you will have that card in hand. I received my today. Typicallly 13 days after my approval date.

Updating... Received my card earlier today. Kash2011. How is this maths thing working? We had 38 applicants and 12 got transferred. It seems we now have 26 applicants. So 24 approvals out of that, i am not sure it is 95%. Unless my maths has gotten so bad.

The status of this service request is:

On August 10, 2014, you or your representative contacted USCIS concerning your I-751 to notify us that you believe your case is outside of our normal processing time. Below is a summary of what we found and how the issue has been or may be resolved.

We have placed your case on a processing hold because the required security checks remain pending. Until we receive the results of these security checks, we cannot move forward on your case. We require the results of security checks before we make a decision on any pending case.

We cannot predict when we will receive the results of these security checks. Please be assured that we will make every effort to make a decision in your case as soon as the security checks are complete.

We hope this information is helpful to you.

That's the response I received for my online service request. Not sure at this point what to do. If you guys have any suggestion, please let me know.

Thanks.

Hey Intergalactic , I'm sorry buddy that you got these news , let's look at the positive part ; I guess it is a matter of time and you will be approved , if they needed more evidence or an interview , I guess they would asked for it long time ago . As long as you are clean , you will be approved right away . Now the hard part , I guess you only have two options either just wait and apply for citizenship which will check ur background again and wait for all together to get done with. OR I heard that you can hire a lawyer to do " MANDAMUS " which is something like a court order to speed up the government to take a decision " do their job in other words " but in your case I don't know if this will be against USCIS or FBI since the USCIS are waiting on ur background report . I guess the lawyer will know that then . Also I don't know if the congressman can help you in a situation like this ! . you might search and ask about this point as well . Stay positive , I feel your pain but you will get done with all of this . It needs patience

Any idea what these security checks are they are doing? What country is the beneficiary from? Was the beneficiary put into AP for the original greencard? Are you the USC? Please fill in your timeline and add the country of the beneficiary so it makes it easier for us to put the story together.

Aaaaw intergalactic, I'm sorry the response you got from USCIS is not the response you wanted to hear. But like everyone else, I'm hoping everything falls into place for you. Just keep a positive outlook on the update you got, I'm pretty sure you'll hear good news soon.

I got my card in the mail last wednesday, aug 20.

> That's all the information that's mentioned in the email response. I don't have any criminal history or anything. I have got couple of traffic tickets in the past but I don't think that counts towards the security issue. I am thinking about calling them and ask why the security check is pending, not sure whether it will be of any help but will have to try it anyways.

What country is the beneficiary from?

> I am the beneficiary and my home country is Nepal.

Was the beneficiary put into AP for the original greencard?

> Not sure what AP means. But when I got the original greencard everything went smooth, no issue at all.

Are you the USC?

> No. My wife is the citizen.

In a couple places I read that sometimes when they need more to work on the case, they could just tell that security check is pending. But it's hard to believe that they would do something like that.

AP can stand for two different things.

1. Advanced Parole for travel which issued when one is applying for AOS and can be used to leave the US during that process.

2. Administrative Processing which is an in depth background and security check done on some beneficiaries that either set off a red flag by their name or criminal record. Or it could be the country they are from. I'm not sure if Nepal is considered a high risk country in terms of terrorist activity, but that could be the reason for the extra scrutiny.
