I received yesterday this email from USCIS:

Your Case Status: Post Decision Activity

On April 2, 2015, we sent your case, Receipt Number LIN1491063***, to the Department of State for visa processing. Please visit our website for general information on Consular Processing. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

So I guess I should start calling the NVC in about two weeks?

Congratulations!!! Yup, start calling in two weeks...

This is definitely a good thing - the ability to visit each other, that is. There are others out there who are stranded away from each other and /or their children in different countries without the ability to visit each other during their indefinite wait. :) Way to go!!! Did you get a reply on your first Service Request?

In all things, new and old, rest is inevitable.

Yes my friend.. I got that dreaded reply stating that we were on hold due to background and security checks :(

But we are hoping and praying for this to be resolved... in the meantime, we get to see each other!

I know we are at least lucky that we don't have to be apart. My heart goes out to those who have to endure this time away from each other due to a strict work situation, financial burden or who simply were refused a visit visa.

Hello Guys!

So I called the USCIS again.. Agent on the line was nice and polite (Nick G710132).

He said the case is with an immigration officer pending a decision and we should hear back by April 16.

Hopefully this is good news... I choose to be happy today. Let's see what happens!

Best,

UnaMexicana

Another update. A friend that I've made thru this site (also from Fiji), submitted their AOS/IV package (for herself and her daughter) on March 20th and she just got notice that her case was approved. They still have to wait for her daugthers, but that means that her case was only in review for 2 weeks!! Praying that this means all of our cases will take a shorter amount of time. She didnt have them expedited either, this was just regular processing!

I just called the NVC yesterday and they said that our case was still in review :( But I keep checking our case online and hoping that the next time i check it, our Fee columns will change from "PAID" to "N/A".

Wishing you all the very best! Take care - Hala'i

Hey Guys!

Sad to report that whatever information USCIS shared with us was wrong. We woke up today to a reply to the second eRequest: still on hold due to background and security checks pending.

It was nice to have some hope but we were thrown back to the limbo. Two hundred and fifity something days and counting.

We are looking for an apartment for my husband to live in and that I can visit here and there until this situation is ressolved.

If anybody has good suggestions of websites we can use, please share!

So sorry to hear about this. I really hope you get some good news soon. Your patience and faith is admirable!

Hey Guys!

Sad to report that whatever information USCIS shared with us was wrong. We woke up today to a reply to the second eRequest: still on hold due to background and security checks pending.

It was nice to have some hope but we were thrown back to the limbo. Two hundred and fifity something days and counting.

Hey Guys!

Sad to report that whatever information USCIS shared with us was wrong. We woke up today to a reply to the second eRequest: still on hold due to background and security checks pending.

It was nice to have some hope but we were thrown back to the limbo. Two hundred and fifty something days and counting.

We are looking for an apartment for my husband to live in and that I can visit here and there until this situation is resolved.

If anybody has good suggestions of websites we can use, please share!

Best,

UnaMexicana
