we already received the noa2 now i guess within 45 we will get the

noa2 or denial.

[janet&adonis 57]

Ok im very confused. If you got noa2 then your case will be sent to nvc then on to santo domingo. The noa2 is your notice of action # 2 meaning your i129f petition was approved.

[janet&adonis 57]

Ok i seen another post you made that you included your receipt number. I checked that on uscis website. Your status still say initial review from march. You did not receive any decision yet....whether approval or denial. No noa2. You can call uscis. Here are the instructions

How to prepare for your call?

Before calling the NCSC please have available

- your receipt number:

- alien registration number:

- type of application filed:

- date filed:

- Online case status:

- Processing times applying to your case type

- Check your priority date (if applicable)

- Have all relevant correspondence with USCIS (NOA1)

How to talk to a live person at USCIS?

Contact the National Customer Service Center (NCSC) at 1-800-375-5283.

Call early in the morning (8.00 am)

Option 1: Then dial 1, 2, 6, 2, 4 (exact sequence). Use these options every time you are prompted.

(You can also try - 1 - 2 - 1 - Case Number - 1 - 3 - 3 or 4)

Option 2: Call USCIS and Do not press anything (don't choose a language). They will think you have a rotary phone and will transfer you directly to a live person.

Option 3: Don't dont choose the number for case status, but do different ones instead (for example RFE; expedite your case, )

Option 4: Military Help Line: 1-877-CIS-4MIL (1-877-247-4645); Members of the military and their families may call to receive assistance with immigration-related questions.

If they speak Spanish just say English please. Now you can ask what you want.

What to ask them?

During your call we recommend that you take note of the following information:

About them:

- The name of the NCSC representative:

- The id number of the NCSC representative:

- The date and time of the call:

- Any service request referral number, if a service referral on a pending case is taken:

About our case:

- When calling, ask them for a service request.

In case they refuse or tell you that they cannot answer your question, then ask to be transferred to a Tier 2 ISO (Immigration Service Officer) supervisor, who will have more privileges to access detailed information about your case. Once you get an ISO, be very polite, and take notes for your records. Ask them for their badge number. That way you can reference each conversation by date and the badge number of the ISO.

Also ask them to review case status - THEY can - it's on their screen.

If the NCSC doesnt issue a service request, please make sure the NCSC representative tells you the reason why he did not issue the request. (This information you'll need to follow up)

- Some of the standard questions:

1) Name check Status?

2) Background Check Status?

3) Has it been assigned to an officer?

4) When can I expect to get some updates on my case?

5) Can you help me with a ball park date on when my case will be assigned to an officer?

6) What dates are they currently working on?

Of course, we are aware of the standard response we get.
