Hey everyone,

I was reading the May filers and came accross this.. Thought I copy and paste so maybe it would clarify things a little for people still waiting for IL.

"Felipe Theory "

USCIS is run by a software codename CRIS (Central R???? Immigration Service) every application is typed in to the system and all the evidence scanned, the system will find if their is any missing evidence and if their is, the application will be sent to be reviewed by an immigration officer. After the officer and supervisor agree that more evidence is needed, they send the RFE and add that to the system, if it is something simple (yellow level RFE) the system will not stop the clock and the application will follow a "standard " timeline according to your local office (one month starting from the biometrics appointment letter RECEIVED not the date on the letter), the system also controls when the letter will be send in the mail, what may change is the appointment date because of the number of applicants ahead of you in line. If their is something more relevant (red level RFE) the system will stop your interview clock and re-start after the case is resumed.

Also expediting your EAD jump your application to the beginning of the line and "sometimes" to the back again re-starting the clock according to when the expedite was requested. If the expedite was requested right after the Biometrics taken, the application will probably go back on line .

this are just ideas i do not know anybody that work at USCIS i just compare timelines and posts on this forum i may or may not be right this are just ideas that how the precess works

aww thx for remebering bout me hunny

Im soo jealous! lol but im happy for you. I did my biometrics like 2 weeks earlier and still ZIP NOTHING NADA Im getting a little bit nervous now.

I dont know why my case has slown down like this. and questions have been popping into my head what if it came but the mailman somehow mixed it up or something? maybe since i was on a expired tourist visa it takes longer for me because they process overstays differently? Well i am still keeping my fingers crossed.

CONGRATULATIONS on your interview letter!! See and u were soo worried bout the biometrics lol

where are u scheduler for? i heard its some place way in long island or something?

I'm scheduled in Manhattan... The Federal building. Don't let your mind start going crazy. I think it's more the fingerprints, maybe your country of origin is taking their time looking for your fingerprint information. Let's blame it on them . Your letter will come soon, you wait and see.

Same here, I'm just a little upset because some May filers got their interview letters already. I've been waiting more than a month since I did my Biometric last May 7, :angry:

What part of the US are you in? Is there anything special about your case that you can think of?

Interview was way shorter than we could have expected. He asked almost no questions, didn't ask for anything other than obvious (passports, I-94, etc.) and just like that we were approved. *whew* He even stamped my passport because he said there was currently somewhat of a backlog in the system because of the new cards.

Good luck to everyone waiting

One would hope that doing biometrics early would give you a step ahead; on the other hand, one who did their biometrics on time (like us, we were denied early biometrics) would hope that after their scheduled appointment, things would go quickly. However, neither is a guarantee. I think that while we are all happy for eachother, jealousy is a normal emotion. I also think that trying to find reasons why one case might differ from another, or a reason for letters to be "late" is a dangerous path to follow. I look at my husband's case; we have had no RFE's... we did everything by the book... no expired visa or anything, and we still have no movement. People who filed after us AND had RFEs are getting more action. And yeah, I think it is natural to be frustrated. On the other hand, think about Alla, she filed at the beginning of the month and she has no letter. THAT'S got to be a much worse feeling. Although I struggle to follow my own advice, I think we should be patient and trust that things are moving normally, and that it will be over soon.

And I really hope for Alla's sake that her case doesn't become the one by which we make ourselves feel better about our own. Here's to you getting your letter before us Alla!
