Tom GarnerJan 29, 2022
no - straight submission, although my lawyer messed-up as my 140 has been pending since May. 485/765 since September.

@Tom any idea when 229007 will initiate adjudication?
T
Tom GarnerJan 29, 2022
@Trend - sorry, I don’t. I was surprised to see this approved so quickly given what I had read on other forums. It does seem a few others have received theirs too, so maybe that’s a good sign that things are starting to move?

congratulations..

@Tom hopefully and thx

Tom - congratulations! I think we might be in a very similar boat - it certainly sounds like it. Your Receipt Note indicates delivery through lockbox. Mine start with LIN 21 9 04 - which I can’t make sense of vs. USCIS’ fiscal year. Fourth computer day - while generated in early September (towards the end of the fiscal year)..?

congrats 🍾 each case is different

Tom - were you out of status otherwise?

No, my L1 runs through to mid ‘23
T
The FredFeb 1, 2022
Thanks, Tom - your lawyer’s cock-up might be actually what’s causing this.
T
Tom GarnerFeb 1, 2022
Fred - that’s a possibility. The 140, 485, 765, 131 were all filed in May ’21 but they had used out of date forms for the 765/131 so they were rejected by USCIS and had to be resubmitted. However, the 140 was accepted and has been in review since then - hoping to see that approved in the next few months. Then just need to get the 485 approval…sounds so simple!
T
The FredFeb 1, 2022
The more I observe and read, the more it seems to be the case that if you get your I-140 in first and then submit the I-485, etc. once the former has generated Receipt Notes, then that split helps. You were looking for concurrent filing - but because of the error you ended up with a split.
T
The FredFeb 1, 2022
I filed in August with Receipt Notes from early September - concurrently…
