I don't know why I even bother calling USCIS anymore. I just got off the phone with them. Before I talked to a live person, the automated case status system told me the date I was transferred and that I should have an update within 180 days! When I asked the rep why the discrepancy from the 60 days stated in the transfer notice, she gave me the usual canned response that they're experiencing delays and they're currently processing Feb 12... I also told her I'm going to visit my wife next week for 3-4 months (hopefully she'll have a visa by then so we can make the trip back together) and to be present for our first baby's birth, so I wanted to make sure they emailed me with any case updates. She proceeded to tell me they don't email those (!) and that I will receive notice via snail mail instead. Useless...

I really do hope that you can come back together and enjoy the birth of your baby.. This really breaks my heart, how do they not acknowledge the pain that all of us are going through, there really needs to be some type of movement made and cases that are filed in June or July should not be approved before us that is just plain ridiculous and damn unfair!!!!!

Congratulations on all approvals!

Unfortunately our process remains unbelievably frustrating. After receiving an email on Nov. 25th that an RFE has been sent out, we found out yesterday (hard copy arrived) what they 'want' from us.

The letter stated that my husband (USC) doesn't seem to be eligible to file an I-130, since he has not provided enough proof that he actually is a US citizen. It seems that the complete copy of his passport he sent in (according to the instructions) is not satisfactory to them.

On top they said we didn't send any photos of either him or myself.

No words.

Phone calls to the USCIS didn't help. They even refused to transfer my husband to a Tier 2 officer. I guess we will have to send in 'the basics' that we provided to start with (9 months ago) again.

Sorry for venting. Has anybody experienced anything similar?

Was he born in US? If not he should also send in proof of naturalization along with passport copy.

Yes, he was. I think a passport states that, doesn't it?

No. As far as I remember the instructions said OR (birth certificate, copy of passport, proof of naturalization...). I guess they must have lost the copies and also the passport photos that we sent in. But on the phone they wouldn't go there. Just kept repeating what was stated in the letter.

People on phone has no clue other than what they read online. I would make sure he sends his birth certificate along with passport copy just incase. I hope you get good news soon!
