Notice of Potential Interview Waiver Case [Part II]

[shell20 746]

I DID! On Monday when NAT was talking about it and I received the same response that ESPARED did! I have the email form them dated for March 16th!

Natonstan received three responses in one day, 1st one was pretty vague, 2nd one said 30 days, can't remember what the 3rd one said. Which one did you get?

What is the link for contacting the Ombudsman?

Someone else in the Immigration Timelines got approved today. AOS NOA is 03/18/2014, and NPIW is 06/27/2014. Not sure if Ombudsman had anything to do with it.

This is so weird its the busiest day on this thread and everyone has gone AWOL!!

As I said, Part III in 3 months at this rate...

[FROWNcat 24]

Natonstan and I , have been discussing this one today in depth. We reckon that it goes on your NOA1 date as Natonstan did not submit his waiver letter, even if it doesn't it is worth a try if you are out of processing time at your local office!

Local office in OH says they're processing application received on August 7 2014.

We filed for our AOS towards the end of June 2014 and they received our RFE on August 6.

The interview waiver letter was dated mid October so it'll be 6 months in April.

April happens to be the month when I can renew my AP/ EAD card as well.

*brain explosion*

Hi, guys! I think I'm the third one was approved today! Just now I checked my case online, it says that,

"New Card Is Being Produced

On March 20, 2015, we ordered your new card for Receipt Number MSCxxxx, and will mail it to the address you gave us. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address."

Hope more people will be approved today! ?

Great news!!!! Agin itz 'bout tym!!!! Welcome to the US of A!!!

Hi and thanks for all the amazing posts.

When do you submit an inqury, because you think you case takes too long?

My EAD and AP was approved in 39 days and but my AOS message haven't updated since september 24th. Almost 6 months.

As of September 24, 2014, we are ready to schedule your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status, Receipt Number MSCxxxxxxxxxxx, for an interview. We will schedule your interview and send you a notice.

I know i'm knowhere near the wait some people have to endure... but still, the Denver Office say that an I-485 form received late january is expected to be processed by late May, so only 3 months

That's not a great letter. GuisseppeG got 2 of them in 2 months and only later did they find that their file was still at NBC...Not sure what to make of this...

For anyone who has gone down the ombudsman method, I have a few questions.

1. How long did it take from submitted the electronic DHS-7001 form did it take for them to email you back saying they contacted USCIS?
2. Did you submit a scan of everything you sent to USCIS?
3. Did you submit the NPIW letter?
4. Did you have to make an Infopass appointment and submit a service request to do this?
5. How long do Infopasses take after requesting to schedule? I mean how far out did they give you one?

If my Congressman and/or my service request come back empty then I plan to contact the Ombudsman on April 21 because that is 30 days after the service request and over 60 days after I was outside processing times. But I hope I don't have to also do an infopass before contacting the ombudsman.

Local office in OH says they're processing application received on August 7 2014.

We filed for our AOS towards the end of June 2014 and they received our RFE on August 6.

My local field office also is at August 7, 2014. Mine is Cleveland OH.

Well I haven't done one but I can answer a couple of these questions. It didn't take long to get a response for the people who filled one in on Monday, it did for Natonstan as he wasn't out of processing time. He didn't do a infopass, nor did he attach a NPIW letter. So no need to do an info pass nor attach the NPIW letter!

Natonstan received three responses in one day, 1st one was pretty vague, 2nd one said 30 days, can't remember what the 3rd one said. Which one did you get?

Monday March 16th. I filed out the online request and the same day they sent back an email that said that they got my request and if they are able to help I will receive correspondence in 45 days and if they cannot help I will be notified promptly. I have not received anything else from them yet.

Yeah it's the same date because it's the same office...

I think that is the first one Natonstan got, he got all three in a day, followed by the 2nd one which said, you will have a decision with in 30 days. Then another one. I need to find them for you!

Here we go Movin on and for anyone who missed this today. Three letters in one day and then an approval inbetween letters! Enjoy.

March 16^th 2015: 10:04AM I got this email:

Good afternoon,

My application was then approved

Then on the 17^th at 12:58PM I received:

Dear Sir,

Thank you for giving the Ombudsman’s Office the opportunity to assist you.

Then an hour later on the 17^th at 1:36PM I got:

This message serves as an update to the email sent by the Ombudsman’s Office earlier today, March 17, 2015. USCIS has indicated that it recently issued a decision regarding the application or petition referenced in your request for assistance.
