i have a good feeling that you will have yours soon...

Â

you know, before i even got an approval(timmy did file an e-request though), timmy told me that he had a good feeling on our case. ive been trying to ask him to contact senator even if we filed an the e request. Â after 2 days there we had it.....

Â

Â

rm love dc, i wanna thank you for being so positive. it did help me become more patient  during the times i was so annoyed with vsc.. lol.... godbless you

You are welcome. I just think that everything happens for a reason. We may not have yet our NOA2 i know God has better plan. I'll wait for His perfect time and that will be soon. :)

God isn't responsible for a moronic system, we are, in my humble opinion and no personal offense intended. He does have impeccable timing however... Anyway, finally approved as of today, after much door banging. Delightful description provided below. As you can see, persistence and annoyance pays off if you were unfortunately passed up and forgotten like the rest of us. Cheers!

Step 1 July 12th: Waited just over 5 months. Filed an e-request online via USCIS site. You should be signed up there to receive status updates via email or text.

Step 2 July 14th: Email senator about wait time and requested assistance. No response.

Step 3 July 19th: Called a tier 1 rep before I received a response to e-request. Tier 1 wasn't helpful at all, just a handful of scripted responses. Days later, I called and requested a tier 2 rep and issued a similar wait time complaint since March and February were being approved very quickly. Not much came of that phone call. They just said to wait until I receive a response from my e-request.

Step 4 July 24th: E-request came and was an unacceptable response that didn't communicate anything of substance other than "sit and wait". Filed an "assist" request from Ombudsman site indicating I'd tried all avenues to hold the system accountable and it failed.

Step 5 July 26th: Talked to a tier 2 rep again, stated the unacceptable wait time as March and April reach 50% approval ratings. Was told my petition had been assigned to an adjucator as of July 25th and they were indeed aware of my e-request and wait time that exceeded normal times. I accepted that as some progress.

Step 6: Approved July 30th.

Step 7: Glad I'm through this hoop. onto the next.

Number for USCIS:

"1-800-375-5283

Press 1-1-1-1 then enter receipt number, then press 1 then 3. That should connect you to a rep. Then ask for a Tier 2 rep. I'd still listen to each prompt to ensure you are pressing the right number.

Thank you. Yes, I hope they continue to annoy the heck out of USCIS with tier calls, ombudsman etc... while they wait. Seems that was the catalyst for my approval. I do hope the rest of February goes through and everyone can move onto the next step. Cheers!
