8 years of finance experiences. You got to give me a lot of help in my courses. ha ha....
My I-485 is pending too, stuck in FBI name check too. But my case was affected by the backlog. I was told that in that case no I-20 is necessary. So that saves some time.
definitely TUCK! The location is not as bad as others said, it is a beautiful small town in the NEW England area, weather is cold but people are warm. Besides, the most important thing is the diversity of the business netwrok, I would say TUCK has got most of the best business fellows coming from all over the world.
