Hallelujah!!!! Congressman liason tracked the file down currently sitting in New Delhi. She found out yesterday but was updated by the consulate today due to time difference. The consulate shipped it to NVC and the liason is waiting for a tracking number. She said she will follow up next week with the NVC to ensure they don't get confused. If you're in Pennsylvania and are having trouble, contact Senator Toomeys office. Great and quick response.

Well, glad the file was tracked down and such. Too bad New Delhi couldn't keep the file and just have you bring everything to an expedited interview.

Oh well. Knowing where my file is makes me that much more comfortable rather than runaround answers. Everything is ready to go as far as paperwork is concerned. Now I can relax and not be as stressed and frustrated.

I just got off the phone with USCIS. I spoke with an ISO and he told me that he can't find any confirmation of where my file is and that it should reach the NVC by the beginning of April????? wacko.gif

Uhhhh.... what? I asked him why April as March 13 will be 30 days for me. He said it sometimes takes that long to get there.

Is it too early for me to make a congressional inquiry yet? This is getting kind of ridiculous. mad.gif

I am the petitioner.

Same story I was told. Print out the consent form and fax it to Pat Toomeys office with the story they're telling you. A lady with the name Rachel will reply with her phone number. Call her when you get the reply. Don't wait.

Always contact a republican. People always feel the democrats are pro immigration and overwhelm them. The republican immigration people are always free and respond quickly. I haven't even gotten a reply from Bob Casey acknowledging my case. Toomeys office replied within 4 hours of faxing. Emphasize "Legal" immigration in your letter.

Yes, they told me to. They said to include the same cover letter I used for the I-864, because they only want the barcode.good.gif

Privacy release form. It allows them to contact the uscis and NVC on your behalf. Be sure to write that they have authorization to contact both agencies. I wrote him last week and heard back today via phone call.
