Request for Information & Office Locations Help

[Sol88 0]

I am the Petitioner (US citizen) for an I-129F application. The current problem I am facing is that I have not received my Request for Information.

I found out on May 29th a request for information was made. The letter never arrived so I requested them to re-send it after 15 days. A week later on June 24th my case shows that they sent it again.

I went to the post office and made sure they would keep an eye out for it. However, upon learning of my situation they suggested transferring my case to a local field office to speed up processing times.

I promptly called USCIS to see if that was possible and they said no it isn't.

My Question is, what can I do to further make sure I receive my request for information? Anyone else have problems with this? Also, is it true that the I-129F can only be processed at these select offices (Mine is California Service Center) and cannot be transferred to more local field offices (i.e. Seattle, closer to me)?

Any help is appreciated

Local offices typically do not adjudicate I-129F petitions (you filed a petition, not an application).

I swear those stupid uscis computers are set to derail some people

I would call every two weeks or so to see if any other rfe's have come in.. good news is that someone is looking at your petition

I have seen nobody able to get a file transferred to a local office upon request... even moreso with your petition type

It's just extremely nerve racking that USCIS is sending a RFE via snail mail but it never arrived the first time? How do I know it will arrive the second time?

Of course they don't provide a tracking number. I've made sure they have the right address, made sure the post office knows to look for it, made sure my mail box is as bright as a bumble bee. Just not sure what else to do if this second request doesn't arrive either.

Did you by chance change you address during the process. I received an RFE last week and for some reason it was sent to my previous address...even though I have the Acknowledge paper from USCIS on my address change.
