[Orojen 0]

I know there's many (too many) of us who are waiting for our GC because the FBI name check is pending... does anyone know how long it usually takes?? A guess??? any???

Thanks!

Happy 2007!!!

How long is a piece of string?

well patience, and I think she was pointing out a string can be any length really - depending on where you cut it. Every FBI name case is different. It depends on numerous factors a short list being - who has your cases, their case load, how common your name is, if someone with the same name has done a no-no. Numerous factors my friend.

Good luck!

I was going to post the same exact question since it has now been exactly 120 days since our interview and the ol I-will-approve-you-pending-FBI-name-check line.... then I found this long thread on this forum:

(btw, rebeccajo, I now see why you are so disgruntled )

I also found this on the FBI site:

Oh well... back to the waiting line I go.

there is a thread in this forum that you could look at but you will still be non the wiser as to how long it takes.......what it will do is.......relate to people that are in the same position and also make you realise that you have not been waiting long at all compared to some people, who incidentally you have to admire for not going crazy waiting...those people in my eyes deserve a medal especially people like Rebeccajo and lal brandow who still come on here and give us all such great advice...thanks to you both

Aw. That was nice. Thanks.

I don't think I'd make it if it weren't for Laura. What's oh-so-weird is we were friends before we found our husband's petitions in this same predicament.

Hey, maybe we should have a 'friend break-up' and then the cases would get resolved...

Thanks so much... It does make me feel better when I read about other people being on the same boat... But I do appreciate the replies... I love this site...

Thanks,
