Notice of Potential Interview Waiver Case [Part III]

[TheWebbys 1]

Got my Approval Notice on Friday and my Permanent Resident Card delivered Saturday. No interview. Filed back in May. Its a 10 year card because we were married for 4 and a half years before we filed

Thought yall may wanna know something interesting. I submitted a Case Inquiry on USCIS website Oct 27, 2015. Then I refiled for EAD & AP approximately 2 weeks later, about 2 months before expiration. So the letter we just got from USCIS after we were notified they approved her I-485 says the following:

"On Oct 27, 2015, you or your representative contacted USCIS concerning your I-485 to notify us that you have not received your Permanent Resident Card (PRC). Below is a summary of what we found and how the issue has been or may be resolved.

On Nov 23, 2015, we sent your PRC to you using the most recent address we have on file."

Sounds to me like they processed it in response to our inquiry & possibly even aided by them having received new EAD/AP request (which they also approved separately) while they were "investigating." I know others have said this before, but this letter seems to confirm that they take action when they're pushed. We'd possibly still be waiting had I not've submitted the inquiry & reapplied for EAD/AP.

I am now over 11 months into AOS and still have no good news.

Submitted my AOS on 12/18/2014 and my local field office is processing 02/21/2015.

Received NPIW on 03/21/2015 stating 6 month delay. This expired on 09/20/2015 but still nothing.

Submitted a service request with Tier 2 on 10/16/2015 for outside processing time frame and just got this as a reply.

"On October 16, 2015, you contacted USCIS concerning your Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status (Form I-485) to notify us that you believe your case is outside of our normal processing time. Below is a summary of what we found and how the issue has been or may be resolved."

"Your petition/application is still pending consideration. We regret that we are not able to give you a time frame for when we will complete the review of your petition/application"

I had also contacted my congressman and heard back from him today stating that they received a very generic response to their inquiry also.

Has anyone else had this response or can anyone provide any further insight into what the meaning of this statement is?

Thanks Aidan

It means you have to wait, nothing gonna change. I got the same answer like you too. now, hope the congressman can help you, or just call Uscis every week to push them.

I also renewed my EAD, and I got letter for biometric. I thought that we dont need to do biometric again when we renew EAD. Does anyone have to the same thing?

We are in the same boat we filed on 7/2014 and the last reply we got is that our case is on a processing hold b/c of security checks.

To people who are waiting as long as you 3 have been, I would continue to do periodic service requests. But I would also recommend doing a service inquiry every week on uscis.gov just to annoy whomever there has to actually work the inquiry. Also, seeing the application every week may get someone to just process it.

On October 7th 2015, we received a NPIW in the mail, and this morning we received a text and email notification stating:

New Card is Being produced.

On December 3, 2015, we ordered your new card for Receipt Number MSCXXX...., 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.

:joy:

We're so excited! We were expecting to wait much longer especially due to the fact that we're at the Dallas office.

Congratulations to all the approvals and, good luck to all those who have upcoming interviews!

Hi Aidan,

Well I am in the same boat! I filed in December last year as well, received a potential waiver interview in April, I made an inquiry about why my case is taking so long (like you did) in October and received an answer from uscis!

The status of this service request is:

Due to workload factors not related to your case, USCIS anticipates a delay in completing your case. USCIS is committed to adjudicating immigration benefits in the order received and in a timely and efficient manner. We regret any inconvenience that results from delays in processing.

​Amazing right???!!!

Adjudicating benefits in the order received!!! I sent it LAST YEAR!!!

I am so frustrated

Recently, somebody came in the US on a waiver program, she married a month after her entry, did not go back in her country to filed for a CR1 but just stay in the US and filed for AOS.... She had her interview 2 months after and received her Green card 2 weeks after!!! Well go for her but seriously... OK!!!

Anyway, so I am still waiting, I am going to contact my congressman but I am not holding my breath...

Same here...

the only difference is that I applied in November 2014 so it's been 12 months and 2 weeks. Awesome

Keep us posted!

Have anyone tried to make infor pass to ask about your case? Today, I go to my local office to do finger print for renew EAD, and they told me if I wanted to ask something, I have to make infor pass. I dont know should I do or not?

Anything is worth a shot.

Frustrated. I just got a text that I had an update, so I logged on to check my status and there's an RFE that got mailed out today. I know my medical expired FOUR days ago. Really?!!!
