I just had the most disheartening moment. cray5ol.gif So, I go out to get my mail and there is an envelope from USCIS. My heart starts racing in excitement...just to finally be hearing something, anything. I rip open the envelope. The letter is dated September 12, 2013. I begin reading and it says on 05/06/13 you contacted us about your case. I'm thinking to myself, I did??? I don't remember that. I go on to read that I had notified them because they spelled my name incorrectly on the I-797. Seriously??? I notified them the beginning of May and they are just now getting around to updating my name and sending me a confirmation. Wow, that only took 4 months to correct my name. I was chatting with my hubby when I got the mail, we were both so excited that I received something from the USCIS. It was so disheartening to have to tell him that it was just a confirmation that they fixed the spelling for my name that I requested 4 months ago. UGGHHH....this waiting is crazy.

The exact same thing happened to me. I contacted them early may regarding a typo, and I didnt hear from them untill last thursday. I am waiting for the paper copy in the mail. I have a priority date of april 29th, and still no NOA 2... :(

Hey people, quit paying attention to the VJ statistics - at this point, it's useless and besides, there are many people not on VJ. I made up my mind yesterday not to worry about this immigration proce

We have the same priority date...April 29. Maybe its good news that they have actually looked at the file, even if it was just to correct a typo. One can always hope.

I know lots of people don't update their timeline, but from the response everyone is getting from tier 2 rep, it does look like it will take around 9 months for approval. It is hard to be positive and I am sure everyone is trying to be positive as much as they can, but at the end it is easier said than done.

Talked to a very polite tier 2 a couple of hours ago. He stated some files are being transferred to the Overland Park in KS and that we shouldn't worry if some are in KS and others in Lee's Summit MO. He mentioned they are all under the same jurisdiction and told me to call again at the end of this month - Not sure what that meant; but I will call again.

I was just on the phone, and was told that my case would not be looked at until at least 6 more months (PD april 29th). That woould mean a year later. This is complete BS

Remember when you talk to a teir 2 they might not know anything.. Don't put much faith in a teir 2 in California or Vermont telling you what they "think" is going on in Missouri or Kansas.. I always ask what office they are at and I haven't gotten anyone from Missouri yet..

Finished for now!!

Ask things that you want to know to ease your mind..

Ask where teir 2 is at.. Where is your petition.. When do they expect petition to be processed.. Will it get transferred to local office, new office in Kansas, or Missouri.. Has it been transferred?.. Ask what is going on for increased delays.. What can you do to help speed process.. Anything you have questions or curiousity about.. Some answers you will like some you will not.. Here lately they are telling good news for everyone..

Finished for now!!
