Tel. #'s for USCIS - Help?

[John/Sam Miles 0]

Hi

Can anyone help me with this???

I have been calling the following number:

+1 800 375 5283

I dont seem to be able to get through to a human. I have tried all of the options and the machine recording keeps on repeating "call back between 8-5 and you can speak to a Call Centre consultant" and I am calling within those times.....

My papers are at the VSC. Is there another nubmer I can try???

Its the only number to call unfortunately. All the direct numbers to service centers have been disconnected..... To make it worse, the people normally on that 1800 number are contractors and have no clue about details of visa processing. Just rely on your online case status. Its the most reliable piece of info you can get...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news Hang in there

I have just read alot of posts where the VJ'ers have been receiving their package 3 without the Case Status Online even changing...

I guess that would be a bonus "Nothing lost".

It would just really be nice to get through to someone who can tell me if my papers are ok as we had an issue initially with the cheques....

Oh well cant help but Wishfull Thinking!!!

I just hope I get to my hubby before they decide on deporting him.

I have actually heard of that too. If you want to keep trying to call I think they operate on east coast time. So that would mean it would be 6am i think? Try to call them in a couple of hours. If the person you are talking to is hopeless and you are not in the states at the moment, tell him/her that you have an urgent situation and you can't make an infopass appointment coz u are overseas and you need to chase up the status of your case. Once I said this to the call operator and she put me through to someone else. However i was put on hold for 50 minutes and she didnt end up telling me anything worthwhile anyway... Try though, you never know your luck!

Looking at my NOA1 for my I-130 it was received in March therefore I would probably be a March filer then... Ah man this is all to technical for me... Well I will just be an April filer and just hope for the best then....

Soldiers Story - Thanks for that I really appreciate it! I will give annother try - Heck I have nothing else better to do with my time!!!

Hello. The number sequences keep changing but this is what I last used to talk to a human on the misinformation line:

call 1-800-375-5283, press 1 for English, 2 to bypass intro, then 2, then 6, and then 2 for not knowing wic number. This will get you a CSR that will ask a bunch of questions and hopefully forward you.

YOu might occasionally call NVC, give them your USCIS receipt number, and see if they've ever heard of you? The NVC folks are more accessible.
