JAN.2013 filer

[pnjandmtc1209 9]

Is there anyone besides my wife and I still waiting for there I-130 to be approved

from January. I have been told by my congressmans office that our file was transferred

to the Atlanta office but I never received a notice from the USCIS saying it had been

transferred. I went to Atlanta on an infopass and talked to an officer he said he would

pull my file and told me to have a seat and wait only to come back 20 minutes later to

say they don't have my file. So does that mean its still at the NBC since I didn't get a notice

from the uscis saying it has been transferred or did the Atlanta office loose my file?

Get on the phone with your congressman right away. Then on top of that, you should contact ombudsman: http://www.dhs.gov/ombudsman-case-assistance

What a complete mockery they have made of us.

Thanks I have already done that and got an email back the same day saying if they cant

help me they will contact me promptly but if they are able to help me it could take up to

45 days before they contact me.

The poster already stated that he has visited his local field office. They do not have his file. In other words, USCIS lost his file from sending it to and fro instead of just adjudicating it.

Nice. Really nice. Losing the little remaining faith in the system that I had...

Contact your senators. They must know that you are being maltreated.

i know he already did it bt as from the information all the petition after Aug-2012 r moved to local office and thy never lost files sum people r stated that their file lost by uscis but its totally a rhyme.

i want to say that just go there and ask them .. if thy dnt hav u r case u r case is at NBC.

This is terrible advice. If you insist on knowing, I will explain why.

[shivam23 11]

Don't you agree that it would be a terrible mistake to assume that it's safely waiting in the NBC, where a loving, caring adjudicator will carefully place the file upon his or her desk, and page through it ever so delicately, being sure not to even bend a single corner on it? They have hundreds of thousands of files, and different types. Not to mention, some adjudicators take files home to adjudicate them. Yep, that's right. The adjudicator takes the file outside of the facility and brings it back when it's complete. Don't you think it's within the realm of possibility that it may have been misfiled somewhere or just stuck under the leg of the coffee table to provide stability?

Simply put, you have too much faith in the system.

Call USCIS and ask customer rep to transfer you to 2nd tier support. 2nd tier support is mainly immigration officers and they can check more in details. Tell you latest update of your file and where it's currently located. For 2nd tier support, you have to wait long over phone around 30-45 mins so be patience!!

Best of Luck!!
