You can do an efax at least that is what I did and it worked. You can google a couple of the different companies that do it.

I used http://faxzero.com/ and just paid the fee to send it without ads and with a cover letter.

I have a fax machine at home. Is it ok to send a faxed release form, even though they won't have my original penned signature on them?

Okay I got a letter today 2 days later from Senator Shelby and it was very nice of his response! He said thank for contacting him about my I-130 and the complaint against the Atlanta field office's processing! He also included the privacy release form to fill out and give to him so he can handle the situation ASAP! I know it may seem like a standard letter from him but it atleast made me a bit happy that I got a reply lol.

So im going to fill this out and fax it to him in the morning! Hopefully I can hear something then! Also I suggest all of us write a letter and send it to Treva so we dont make her seem lonely in her infopass appt. Contact her for more details!

So I went this morning to the infopass... and just like we thought, they have NOT BEGUN PROCESSING ANY OF THE I-130's transferred from Missouri. I filled out an inquiry application thingy and attached two pages of handwritten letter.

ALL OF US PETITIONERS need to write letters to the field office director asap. Sorry for the caps, but this is insane!

I will add more details later this evening or tomorrow, and I'll try to attach a scan of their inquiry application form so you guys can print it out and send in with your letters.

Does this qualify an expedite based on USCIS error in NOT DOING THEIR JOB?

I hope so...this is stupid. I want to take my file out of Atlanta and take it somewhere else. Wish it was that easy....ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Out of 6 chicago filers, ranging from August - December, none have been approved.

I'm wondering if contacting my congressman to inquire about IF they are even processing cases would be possible.

I'd HATE to get to the 5 month mark and find out what you guys just did.

That's SO terrible.

I feel you. I am moving to Columbus, Ohio (where there is a USCIS office) in mid March. Maybe I can have my file transferred there as I already have the address of my new place even though I haven't officially moved yet. Though if I do that, will my file go to the bottom of Columbus' stack? Their office has been approving I130s in 2.5 months. Not sure what to do, but I sure am frustrated.

Maybe a good idea. You should try it before 5 months. Now all my hopes of bringing my wife here by July are out the window. Im so upset...wonderful start to the weekend.

My letter to the field director will not be a nice one you can believe that!

If I were you, I'd try everything to get your file there ASAP. Find out what you can do because Atlanta looks hopeless at the moment.
