I have been through almost all the stupid number codes on the National Customer Service Center number: 1800-375-5283

can someone please tell me how I can actually talk with a person, so I can verify my packet & get questions answered before I send in my first I-129F packet.

Please let me know ASAP

This is an interesting dilemma that USCIS has created. It states the hours when an operator can be reached but then it's impossible to actually reach one. For me, it was actually necessary to reach them since calling was the only way to state that I couldn't come to an interview.

The only reliable option I have discovered is to press nothing. Even the initial English/Spanish. The computer assumes you have a rotary phone and directs you to an operator. You'll still have to wait on hold while listening to recordings in alternating English and Spanish, but it beats recording hell. Also, the operator will begin speaking in Spanish. For whatever reason, USCIS assumes that the majority of rotary phone owners are Spanish speakers. Speak in English and the Spanish operators are all bilingual, at least all the ones I have met.

Other than this, I have wandered the wastelands that are the obscure menus of USCIS and have found nothing resembling human life. The change of address loophole, exploited by many, was recently shored up to create yet another dead end. You now get a recording which instructs you how to change your address by mail or online.

I also don't know how to get to a person. In fact, I don't think they have operators available for verifying things or just asking general questions. That's what they reckon sites live VJ, or lawyers or other visa service companies are for.

What other questions did you have?

Follow the prompts to change address. When they answer tell them ypu changng address and what your problem is.
