NSC Reply for SR - processing delayed till background check is open!!!

[inderman]

Hello All,

My priority date becomes current as of 1'st Oct 2009... I had created an Service Request 2 weeks back to check with NSC if it has been preadjudicated or not...

Here is what i received as an email response to the Service Request today-


The status of this service request is:

The processing of your case has been delayed. A check of our records establishes that your case is not yet ready for decision, as the required investigation into your background remains open.

Until the background investigation is completed, we cannot move forward on your case. These background checks are required to be completed on all applicants who apply for the immigration benefit you are seeking. We will make every effort to make a decision on this case as soon as the background checks are complete. If you do not receive a decision or other notice of action from us within 6 months of this letter, please contact us by calling our customer service number provided below.

Questions:

1. What am i supposed to do now?

2. I remember seeing a Memo back in Feb 2008 which stated that 485 can be approved after waiting for 6 months for background check and not more than that.


Please let me know if anyone else has received a similar reply in Sep 2009... Any thoughts are highly appreciated...


Thanks for all your help... These forums and community has been a great help all along!
