Hi Ilona,

So what happened to your files? Were they able to locate it for you or did you apply again?

Thanks.

Hey guys,

I posted on the July thread

It was a a quick visit. I was approved and then told to relax now and wait for the letter.

Congratulations, KyngSilva!

Congrats to everybody else who got approved since the last time I posted,which was long time ago!

Anyway,just wanted to check in how is everybody doing!

I am finaly going for fingerprints next week on the 17-th, I cant quite believe it yet-that my things are finaly moving along, but hey I still got the FBI check to go trough and I hope with all my heart that I dont get stuck in there!

So this is it so far, I guess I'll just wait some more and see! :clock:

Hi, Sakura888!

No, my file is lost somewhere! USCIS said they mailed it back the day they got it,cause instead of signing my name, I typed it! I never received it, so it might have gotten lost in the mail. They were not even able to tell me that my file was sent back to me and just kept telling to wait and wait and finaly the senator's office helped to to find out what was going on! I had to reapply allover again! But at least things are moving now! Thanks for asking!

Hey...late to the party here...

It looks like we are on a schedule close to zolo39, maybe because we use the same local office. Got the interview notice yesterday, but for some reason our interview is a week later :-(

We got a notice that my wife would get to choose between the old and new tests; for those that have been through the interview already, what was your experience? Were you given a choice, and which one did you choose? Thanks!

At Marina's interview he didn't even give her a choice-just went right into the questions from the old test. If given the choice I would opt for the old one as there is less detail to learn.

Good Luck!

I thought you guys might like to know I got an email from the Senators office, this just goes to show how bloody clueless the NBC is, and how ineffective the customer service line is. They spend millions of dollars to tell us exactly what they don't know. This came yesterday , I had a good laugh.

"I hope you are having a good holiday. I just wanted to provide you with a quick update letting you know that I heard from the Nebraska Service Center and they informed me the case is pending at the National Benefits Center. I have inquired with them and will let you know as soon as I hear something."

Then was followed by this letter later in the day

"Good morning Jacob,

Case LIN*00000000, A00000000 Form N-400 for Kyng Silva. No interview date has been set as of today’s date. Please try back in three weeks.

Thank you,

Congressional Liaison Specialist

National Benefits Center "

These clowns are wasting taxpayer money with a communication system that is very very ineffective. I wrote back to the Senators office and I will keep writing to them about this crappy experience.

"Hello Jacob,

I just got back from out of country. I had my interview on Dec 8th, 2008 and passed it. The NBC is a little behind on their information. I am currently just waiting for the USCIS to send me my oath letter. It doesnt really surprise me that they do not really know what's going on. This was the problem when I was dealing with them. One department doesn't know what the other is doing because they dont keep effect notes on the files. This is also why there are so many frustrated people, who call the Customer Service line and told the same information that is on the website. Even though my file has been approved, my case status online shows as pending and a date of 08/08/2008 as last being touched. Thank you for the follow up. "

Wow,King Sylva! I completely understand what you are going trough and your frustration. I've been feeling like that since I started dealing with NCS 4 years ago. Whatever you consider normal logic or normal communications and a no brainer that should be done quickly DOES NOT apply to immigration. They seem to exist outside of the normal reality and I pity us and everyone else that has been sucked into the vortex. Those that have come out,have no idea,or may be they do, how lucky they are to have the immigration out of their lives!!!

I hope everything moves faster for you! Good luck!
