Is it time to contact UCIS?

[Our Mao 0]

All,

It has been over 100 days since we filed our I-130 (July 26, 06)

Do you think I should contact USCIS? Me and my husband were thinking of contacting the congressman to see if he can do something for us if we dont hear anything by the end of the month.

I was originally on the TN visa and have filed the I-130 and the I-129F. So far. nothing from both sides. (I-129F got transferred after sitting there for two months in the Missouri office) I'm starting to wonder if it's because I have entered some US addresses on my G froms that threw them off.. ( was working in the US since 2003)

I just hope they didn't lose our file! It's encouraging to see approvals with others but at the same time, very discouraging that we filed before some of the others and are left behind.....

There's no harm in calling USCIS, but be prepared that CSC's current timeline states they are processing I-130's from May 2, so your case does not fall outside the acceptable time frame yet and that's probably what you'll be told. Of course we all know that people who applied well after that are already seeing approvals, but USCIS leaves themselves a full six months of wiggle room before they can be effectively brought to task. Because of this, your congressman almost certainly won't intervene until you're at the six month mark.

Even though I applied after you and was approved before you, I don't think it's right or fair. I honestly do feel petitions should be approved on a first come, first served basis, and in I would have had no problem waiting my turn. I'm sorry you feel so helpless. I hope to see you post about an approval soon.

Were you in the US on TN when your USC first filed? Where are you now?
