Filed I-130 yesterday

Ye Haaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrr...

[insert expletive here]

Ya, I was transferred to a local office (Dallas, but really the IRVING office) on 28 November 2012. I learned of it today, when calling in to USCIS and talking with an ISO..

The ISO also tells me that I'm pegged for a local interview and that I will receive a letter about it sometime.

Holy Moly ! I am not happy.

Has anyone been to one of these appts yet? What is the point? To just provide what you already provided? Idgi

OK - here's my thoughts on 'local interview'.

Historically, when a casefile is transferred to a local office, it's always for a petitioner interview prior to I-130 approval.

So, IMO, these two things are tied together from the past,

and we really not read about an actual local interview here on MSC casefiles, yet.

We have read about this casefile transfer... and the local interview ,

but nothing about a human actually going to an interview (yet)

still with approvals occuring after.

I'm going to dig some more, and see if I can find a MSC filer with an actual local interview...

So far, I think is data glitch, the two things are 'tied' together and should not be...

a. send to local office b. interview with petitioner..

Agreed.

I'm looking at your timeline... married in 2008, thinking, there's no way you could not have sent enough proof... so what on earth could they need to interview you for?

If I wasn't in Canada much of the time, I probably wouldn't complain about it too much, but the potential for having to go back unscheduled is already starting to irritate me >=[

That really is my intention. Seriously.. I want to beat you out of NVC and have interview in February. Seriously.

ya, is really strange. Also, if these local wankers use different rules for adjudication (paperwork requirements, etc)

on the I-130 than CSC or VSC uses, I'm gonna be really p|ssed off.

I swear to God, I am bringing a copy of 9FAM and the memos with me if I actually have an interview,

with the pages highlighted covering the I-130 adjudicators manual.
