I have generally found calling USCIS to be a complete waste of time. 99.9% of the time they're just going to say "Sorry sir/ma'am, you're still within normal processing deadlines". Nevertheless, I com

I doubt the myth that calling causes delays, I don't think that USCIS is vindictive like that. I've read too many stories of people getting approved after talking with a Tier 2, so I'm buying that myth :). In the end, whether you have delays or not seems to be a combination of factors, but also a great deal of random chance.

To call dial 1 (800) 375-5283 then press 1 for English, then 2, then press 1 again. Then enter your receipt # and then press 1 to confirm. Press 3 to talk with a representative. The operator will ask you a few questions to confirm your case, and then they ask what they can do for you. Just say, "I have questions for a Tier 2." They'll transfer you and you'll set up a call back. After a few hours, a Tier 2 will call you back. If it is someone helpful, they tell you if there has been a background check, or if your case is with an officer. If you get someone unhelpful, they'll tell you the "current" processing time and not much else. Just keep calling back, you'll eventually get someone helpful.

Thanks for the info...called USCIS AND asked to talk to tier 2... just like u said... I was lucky.. I put my number and they called back in 3min... talked but they didn't give much info.. they said my petition it just says pending... She said it doesn't show anything it might take another 1 month or upto three month🙂🤔.. I don't know what to do.. may be better call another time and see if I can get other info.. atleast it's better than talking to tier 1.

My case was sent to NVC on 04/19 according to the website. I began calling on Monday since their system was being upgraded since Friday.  Today I finally got the case # and Invoice number. They told me to wait because the case was not ready in their system yet. I was finally able to provide them with my email address so that they can send me all the paperwork for the case. They told me today that I should be getting something via email pretty soon. I am guessing maybe today or tomorrow.....
