Hello Guys,

I just got off the phone with USCIS.. Given the dubious circumstances of my original I-130 petition rejection ( i received a rejection notice saying incomplete Address C and an email from Lockbox support stating forms were erroneously rejected)... It dawned on me that USCIS has no way to verify conflicting information!!!

I hope I am jumping to conclusions because this is alarming!

When I spoke with the USCIS Rep (A nice person.. I dont envy their job), they stated that I could file a service request (Loto's advice as well)which would go to the service center where the request would be considered. Since USCIS only has my resubmitted App, I'd hate to slow down my application even further...Am I right in believing that I have 0 chance to get my priority date readjusted to last month?

Rumba, it should not slow down the process. But you need some proof to show them during the correspondence, such as their letter, your canceled check or mailing proof etc.

There is no assurance here, but a try.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

No Darnell.

Rumba wants to tie up his old priority date with this new submission. I gave him some suggestions by PM. Just a try!

Indigo,

Priority date is the date when the USCIS receives your initial application by mail. They follow "First Come First Served" manner all the applications based on this priority date unless there is any special processing such as expedite etc. I-130 petitions by USC is categorized under immediate relative of USC and the beneficiary does not need to wait for visa number available, because visa number is already available for this category when I-130 is approved and these visa numbers are numercially unlimited. However, the process is based on FCFS. For FCFS, they use Priority Date.

Applications such as I-130 (family based), I-140 (employment based) are the step to make visa number available to the applicant/beneficiary.

Why some people are getting approvals faster in the same visa category are:

1) No RFE

2) Faster background check clearance

3) Speed of handling adjudicators

4) Service Center

And many other factors...
