TSC A-FILE

[sophisgent 0]

K1 visa holder (I-29F filed at TSC) comes to U.S. in May 2003, and files I-485 at New Orleans office in January 2004, and adjustment interview takes place in New Orleans office in December 2004. The interviewer at New Orleans has A-file. K1 adjusts status and becomes LPR in December 2004.

Question: After AOS interview, where did the A-file go? Where was it stored?

Now its time for LPR and her husband to file I-751 at TSC to remove conditions.

Does anybody know if the A-File is kept at TSC or, if not, where it is requested from to be sent to TSC?

Any information will be appreciated.

There is indeed one central storage facility where the A files of everyone who does not currently have anything pending are kept. The TSC will request the A file from there, and send it back once the I-751 is approved. (If it's denied, the file will get sent around to whomever handles the appeal, possible removal proceedings, etc.)

I believe the central storage facility is in Kentucky, but don't quote me.

As to how I know, my job is tangentially related to immigration so often the things we are doing depend on one agency or another getting the A file from the storage facility. Which, as I said, I think is in Kentucky. But as I'm not the one who actually requests them, I'm not 100% sure.

Archie,

Adjustment and naturalizaton cases are stored at the National Records Center in Lee's Summit, Missouri.

USCIS also has a number of other storage facilities including the File Storage Facility in Harrisonberg, Virginia, and the National Archives and Records Administration in Lee's Summit, Missouri.
