since I requested an exdepite process on 4/2/14, I received a common answer that indicates "You are pending on background check."

So I called today, and Tier1 officer requested another expedite process request.

He said "you are eligible to request another because you do not received a decision within 60 days"

However, Tier 1 cannot be created due to less than 30days.

Now I am waiting for a call back from tier 2.

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez!!!!

MY PD is 6/25/13 and transferred to TSC on 12/30/13....

[CKim 6]

Wow... what an irresponsibility!!!! USCIS tier2 said the background check might take more than a year.

And they said, "if you want, you can file a FOIA" Wow...

I don't want to be sarcastic to a tier2 officer, but she has a fatty voice who doesnt care of the customer.

I am going to get the consultation with immigration lawyer.

Damn. USCIS call center does not help at all.

What's FOIA?

[BOS_LHR 829]

What's FOIA?

Freedom of Information Act. It allows you to request government documents, and in the case of USCIS, documents pertaining to your case: http://www.uscis.gov/about-us/freedom-information-and-privacy-act-foia/uscis-freedom-information-act-and-privacy-act

I made an appt for the free consultation with immigration lawyer in D.C.

I hope that American Immigrantion Lawyer Association might give me some help regarding this shitty situation.

I will leave a feedback after my meeting time on Friday.

They say that but doesn't mean it will take a year or even a week. It also states the same thing on the USCIS site so don't think it's true it will take a year. They said the same thing to me, it's just a generic answer to get you out of their face. Not nice but that is what they do.

No they don't care and I'm sure they hire people that no one else would hire under any circumstances. They are the meanest, rudest people on earth and there is no reason to be.

Guys I was wondering does anyone know on what condition do they deny 130 petetion? I m getting paranoid now and trying to prepare myself for the worst.

Yup same here it's terrible. 304 days gone. I have lost all positivity and hopes.

The I-130 can be denied for reasons of ineligibility or "derogatory information," which I think would most often mean a criminal history. If USCIS finds any "derogatory information" they'll issue a notice of intent to deny (NOID) and give you the chance to review/contest their findings. Ineligibility would be stuff like... you're not legally married, or the petitioner isn't a citizen.

Take a look at the Field Adjudicator's Manual for USCIS procedure: http://www.uscis.gov/iframe/ilink/docView/AFM/HTML/AFM/0-0-0-1.html. Section 10.5 is particularly useful for your question.

The wait they're putting you through is absolutely awful, but I'm sure you'll have good news at the end of it. The "something bad" is what you're living through right now! It'll get better, and I hope it does very soon.
