nothing can be done you have to wait and watch
R BtzJan 18, 2024
but my question my date is current so how come the visa is not available?
R BtzJan 18, 2024
sorry i mean my case status changed to CRP today which is strange
H SJan 18, 2024
interesting. I hope it’s a mistake. did you file concurrently?
R BtzJan 18, 2024
no i did not
R BtzJan 18, 2024
i filed i485 in july 23
H SJan 18, 2024
my case status just changed to “case ready for interview”. same timeline like you. July 18 2023 submission.
R BtzJan 18, 2024
@H S did it change today?
R BtzJan 18, 2024
mine is eb1a
R BtzJan 18, 2024
it doenst make sense to me not sure if i should contact emma
H SJan 18, 2024
yes just a few minutes back. eb1a but sponsored by my employer.
R BtzJan 18, 2024
@H S mine is eb1a and just an hour back status changed. not sure what to do?
H SJan 18, 2024
@R Btz reach out to your lawyer and also to Emma agent and ask about it? I assume it’s a mistake since our date is current.
R BtzJan 18, 2024
yes i am going to do that. hope its a mistake
S KJan 18, 2024
@R Btz - I am in same boat where PD is mar 2018 with eb1c, but status is CRP with visa unavailable, but date current from Jan 2024
I asked my attorney to put service request to verify if my older PD is applied to I485? just FYI
R BtzJan 18, 2024
@sk thank you. i am going to check with my attorney
R BtzJan 18, 2024
@H S so as per Emma the case is processing normally and they cant tell me when the last update was in status. this is so weirf
H SJan 19, 2024
@R Btz contact your attorney. uscis chat is so weird.
R BtzJan 19, 2024
@H S yes just sent them an email. hopefully they will respond soon
H SJan 19, 2024
@D P thank you. I thought interviews were getting waived off. but I guess we are the lucky ones. I have to wait for the letter to know when it is. hopefully soon.
Jay MJan 19, 2024
That’s weird. what is your PD on your EB1 I-140? make sure that your EB2 PD is ported over.
Also, FAD in 2020 does not mean that they won’t run out of visas, but I was not expecting them to.
Good luck.
Jay MJan 19, 2024
@D P Your I-140 approval notice (797) should have it.
R JJan 20, 2024
There’s no way they ran out of visa for EB1 Indians in just 20 days in the quarter. My best guess is that you’re went to CRP somehow before Jan 1st but the status got updated just now.
d sJan 20, 2024
@R J that is my guess as well. uscis has been quite unreliable with updates
S SSJan 20, 2024
@R Btz it’s strange. They work in a mysterious way. I guess it might be very temporary and could be a staging status before they approve your case. My PD is 2016 EB1A which is current so hoping some positive news by this month end because anyway we are entering the third week in January 2024.
R BtzJan 21, 2024
@S SS i spoke to the agent yesterday and she mentioned that may be the visa numbers for this month just got over and you would just have to wait. so not sure what is going on? my lawyer emailed to me that it is standard uscis message.
R BtzJan 21, 2024
@R J could be that also. but there is no way to find out that. the status change was bit shocking for me since its almost mid of month and my date is current since jan 24
