I485 Denied, I290B Still Pending... It's been a lo .. It's been a long wait (for bot

Hi everyone, This is my very first post! I hope everyone's doing well today.My I-485 was denied on august 29 2013. it was denied because i failed to appear for a second interview which i never got any letter proving that .so my case was considered abandoned, i filled form I-290B. The receiving office got it on october 11 2013.i have to waiting for 4 months now,My EAD expired and my EAD application was denied cause of the pending I-290B so I can't even work right now!.However today I checked my case status and this is what it said: On December 9, 2013, your name was updated relating to your I290B, NOTICE OF APPEAL TO THE COMMISSIONER. Please check our website at www.uscis.gov for further updates on your case. Please wait until the end of normal processing time before calling customer service at 1-800-375-5283 for live assistance. I honestly don't know what a NAME update is supposed to mean pertaining to my case, but it gave me some sort of hope that my case is not just stagnating on someone's desk.Can anyone shed some light on this cryptic situation?! I would really appreciate getting my life straight so I can work and go back to college. i spoke with a lawyer today and i was told to start the whole application process again(i-485)..am very confused right and i serously need help

Don't wait until the end of processing to call customer service. Ask for a tier 2 representative to discuss your case with. Right now you should probably be banging on everyone's door at USCIS. Contact your state representative.
