I haven't posted on this thread for quite some time. Sometimes it's easier just to get on with things an not obsess about the waiting. But..... I do have some news..... which i hope is good news. I posted this in a seperate thread but wanted to include it here for old-times-sake.

Hello. My case is a little tricky and i'm trying to simplify things. After a long wait, including namecheck delays, I was approved in February 08. I got the approval letter and also a temporary stamp from my local Washington, DC, office. Throughout my whole journey, the online status check has never been updated. It's always stated that my fingerprints are being reviewed and that my case is continued. But there was, i think, a slight change this week. (I say i think because i had given up checking the thing and can't remember the original wording.) The case status now says that fingerprint review is finished and that the case is at their Vermont Service Center. This seems like it could be good news. Am i right in thinking that the local office reviews a case, and once complete then forwards it to the main service center for card processing/finishing touches. This is what i am trying to make myself believe. I really want this thing over. I still can't believe i've been waiting since March 2005!

Has anyone got an insight or encouraging word?

My case was approved on March 17th and sent to the nebraska service center at the end of the March for final review and card production. My husband's card arrived on June 2nd.

This looks good for you!

I remember long time ago my name was in the list "ANS" Please update my case . My case approved on May 27 with production of card ordered . Thanks

=======================================================================

Does anyone know exactly at which point of the AOS process the FBI name check is initiated? At our interview the officer seemed to indicate that it is started soon after the USCIS originally receives the AOS application. Also, we were wondering if the name check is only performed on the "alien"?

I have no idea....i wonder if Lorelle knows?

One would think it begins after biometrics are taken.

What disheartens me about Wes' card is that his bios were taken 12/20/05. The file was touched on 12/28 and shows no movement since then.

Now we all know that is completely incongruous because we were interviewed 3/9/06 and the file was certainly 'touched' that day......for pity sake I had my own two eyes on it!

I realize that one can't rely on posted dates on USCIS.gov but give me a break. The date makes it look like the fingerprints were put in the file and there has been nothing done since.... :(
