I received a strange letter today from USCIS regarding my address. So, I thought this would be a perfect time to call using the RFE line to also enquire about I-130 that has been pending for nearly 7 months. I called and got a rep atCSC. Spoke to her about this address letter thing then she suddenly said that my I-130 is past normal processing time and that she will be pulling my file now and sending to an adjuticator. Should I believe her? She was much more helpful and knowledgable than any rep I have spoke to at USCIS. She also said that even though they haven't updated their processing times on the website, they are currently working on August 15 I-130's and I am past due. I hope she isn't just telling me what I want to hear? arrgghhh

well least it would get adjudicated else keep calling the RFE line. they are the same reps except one is so called tier 1 and the other is tier2 something. well when i called yesterday, i was told my case is within the processing time which technically it might be considering the freakin processing dates hasn't been updated on their website.
