Affidavit of Support not withdrawn as expected - Now what?

[slowlyman 118]

I attending an infopass to hand deliver a withdrawal letter and mailed a copy to the address on the NOA1. As well as the original lockbox.

I have been unable to find a status change at USCIS. I requested a congressional inquiry. The staffer reports no change in the 485 status. She also told me in these cases, the withdrawal request is rarely honored because the immigrant will most likely not return home.

Any ideas? Something more I should be doing?

The staffer is incorrect. You have the right to withdraw the affidavit of support up until the time the green card is issued. I think you're expecting an immediate change in the status of the AOS application. The withdrawal will not affect the case until it comes up to be adjudicated. At which time the denial will be issued because there is no valid I-864.

Read instructions, do, repeat as needed. They will most likely wait until her interview to ensure you haven't changed your mind. At that time they will deny the application to adjust status. But it never hurts to send the information again.
