Oooo! Just got a notice from CSC that my reply to the RFE has been received and processing has resumed! Cmon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon!!!!!

Hey Casper.

I know this doesn't give you much comfort, but at this point they HAVE to approve it in 60 days (their own policy).

BUT! You'll be approved much sooner.

Best of luck to you.

Слава Україні!

Interestingly, my Congressman got a reply back from the USCIS (actually it's really the Dept. of Homeland Security, isn't it?) in less than 1 business day. The news, as quoted below was disappointing in a way that only members of this site would understand:

The processing of the above case has been delayed. A check of our

records establishes that the above case is not yet ready for a decision,

as the required investigation into your constituent's background remains

open. Until the background investigation is completed, we cannot move

forward on your case. These background checks are required to be

completed on all applicants who apply for the immigration benefit your

constituent are seeking. We will make every effort to make a decision

on this case as soon as the background checks are complete. If your

constituent does not receive a decision or other notice of action from

us within 90 days of this email, please feel free to contact us again.

Thank you and have a nice day.

My petition is now on the 6th month. I recieved this same response in an inquiry I performed myself over the telephone with customer. The response came in an email and is IDENTICAL to yours EXCEPT it instead of 90 days says 6 months. Be glad you are not in my shoes. Have you heard anything yet?

I love the last line! As you can imagine a 90 day delay for no stated reason other than they haven't finished is very unsatisfying. I did ask the congressional aide for more information but at this point she has washed her hands until the 90 days are up. I am holding out hope that, on rereading 7 times, they are only saying they haven't finished yet and not that there is a problem. Since we are all technically still within the 5 months for the I-129f approval that the USCIS website quotes maybe the liaison contact was just politely saying, 'don't bug us at least until the 5 months are up.' Dunno.

Anybody else ever seen this kind of response before? And if so, how did it ultimately resolve? Any suggestions as to a different VJ forum where the text of the USCIS response might have been dealt with?

As to contacting all your resepective congressional offices, I think, why not! If you do get a reply I would be interested to know if it is identical to mine which would indicate a canned response. And maybe if a number of Congressman/Senators start asking the USCIS why the December filers have slowed and, BTW, aren't the cases supposed to be handled in the order received, then maybe we will all see some progress!

I hope.

Hey all -- I arrived in Ohio on Saturday 10th April....I am still pinching myself that I am actually here with my man. It made me giggle to wake up yesterday morning to him uttering 'You are real..this isn't a dream' We are settling into a routine and getting everyone settled into the house and a wonderful life together. We have been exploring a little, taken heaps of photos and basically just enjoyed being together as a family. Nothing could be better then this. We now settle into preparing for our wedding in June.

I'll add that the sun is shining a bit brighter here in Oregon as well. After getting my RFE last Tuesday and sending a 37 page supplemental information packet on Wednesday, I got NOA 2, I-19f approval yesterday!!!

YES! I might still have My Love home in June!

Thanks everyone for your help and support. Now it's time to turn my attention to the I-134's, DS-156's, police reports...

WooHoo!
