AOS interview successful, but waiting for FBI name check

[LaL 418]

I was just about to ask if people usually get a touch or two before then namecheck is done.. I'm not one to obsess over touches usually, but now I've found myself checking it daily! I'm sure I'll get bored eventually..

actually that IS what we have seen, touches prior to completion... but my online status still says that my interview was cancelled/descheduled. i somehow doubt i wwill get touched at the end, but stranger things have happened! and yeah, i rarely check anymore. its always the same.

Ah well, they're still waiting on our tax returns anyway... Got an infopass appointment on Monday so maybe a miracle will happen and they'll have some good news! If it wasn't for the fact that it's so annoying I'd quite enjoy being a part of this little group

Our last touch was June 22, 2006. I got all excited about it.

I'm not getting excited again unless I see more than one.

our last touch was 2/14/05. they only said our fingerprints have been recieved.

our last touch for the EAD was 11/15/2006 and our last touch on the other cases was 1/15/2007--when they told us we were "descheduled"

Shamelessly they also tell us that all cases are PENDING and received last year!

We called the customer service again in January and we then received a letter saying the case is in review and a decision will be sent within 90 days on the action. We haven't received that before, do you think they mean action on our request asking what is happening with the case or are they saying the AOS will be decided by then?

I think being touched is a good signs. We had our interview September 2006 and these were the touches:

Yes, last touched they sent me an email too and my online case has been updated too!

Congragulations Traditions Way!! Very good news for you!

I'm curious what the difference is between the namechecks that we go through during the K-1 visa process and these one's for AOS. It would seem more reasonable to me to do a more thorough check prior to letting someone in the country, than after they are already here.

I am just looking at my portfolio on the USCIS website. I haven't had any status changes, therefore no actual emails, but my case's last updated date (touch) was 7/27/07 but seems to just be a verbiage change.

We called the customer service again in January and we then received a letter saying the case is in review and a decision will be sent within 90 days on the action. We haven't received that before, do you think they mean action on our request asking what is happening with the case or are they saying the AOS will be decided by then?

i haven't seen this verbiage before... hopefully its a good thing! if this letter is a result of a service request, then your verbiage is better than mine! mine simply says your case has been delayed, and is not ready for processing at this time.... hopefully this is nearing your end - it has been far too long!

visa security checks are done by the DOS and stateside checks are done by the DHS. They only really check someone out if they are from a "list of 26" countries which has had terrorism ties. Otherwise police reports are all the consulate requires. Also the check stateside (AOS) is checking names here for any hits (and as I and others have been told home countries as well - although it has been disputed).

Congratulations Traditions Way!

Journeyhelper, I agree with Laura that I haven't seen this before. The text sounds more personalized so maybe it's good news.
