maybe you guys should form an infopass posse?

set a date, go in all together, en masse so to speak,

and have a nice sit down with the I-130 unit Supervisor ?

If you want to make that happen, I can prep you with questions , some generic enough to post the answers back here.

Best done in a group, really !

Power in numbers gogo! :ranting: :ranting: :ranting: :ranting: :ranting:

Anyone have any idea what other forms/cases the ATL office processes and how long all those petitions and cases are taking to be approved? (like AOS, employment authorization, work permits, etc). I'm trying to see how long those files are taking.

a while ago, I came across post's from "tonio'swife" that showed she filed adjustment of status at ATL early december and got an RFE less than a month later... so somebody's working in that office, just not touching our stand-alone I-130's.

Truth...that also could help! We all just need to do something honestly!

Does anyone know the normal processing times for right now? Since I have a WAC number I would go by the CSC processing time correct? I dont see it at all! And Atlanta doesnt have I-130 processing times! Ahhhhhh this sucks!

see http://infopass.uscis.gov/

I just checked out the uscis site to see how to get an infopass appointment. For our situation, it says we can get an appointment if we had a service request that has not been responded to for more than forty-five days. What am I missing here, Darnell? I don't think any of us has put in a service request yet. Can we get an appointment anyway? It says we must bring the service request ID number.
