Visa Journey members,


I am June filer as well. I filed at the beginning of June and biometric was done in third weeks of june. Since then i haven't heard anything from USCIS (meaning no online update). I spoke to second level officer and according to him, my application was placed in line for interview at the end of august. Also the officer said they will send me letter with detail reasons as to why, so i got letter from USCIS saying that "due to workload not related to your case, USCIS anticipates a delay in completing your case." It has been over 3 months since application was put inline for interview yet haven't heard anything from USCIS. So i made infopass with local office, didn't get much help from there either. It was pretty much the same answer that second level officer gave over the phone.



As per online update, my field office was processing March 31st application as of Sept 30th which was updated in Nov.



Now my question is, should i approach to Senator to find whether the delay is due to new ELIS or something else has delayed my application (other than what has already told to me via letter and over the phone)? Or should i patiently wait until the file is pulled into interview schedule from inline for interview? note my application starts with IOE number so i am in the same boat as most of the others.



Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.

I was reading somewhere that because of the election, USCIS has received 25% more applications than they normally do so that could explain the delay. Not sure if it's related to the fallout from the recent failure on the part of DHS to conduct proper background checks.

I would just wait, honestly. What's the rush?

Has there been any VJer that is 1) IOE filer, 2) from your Field Office, and 3) filed similar dates to yours that was scheduled for an interview lately?

IMHO I would just wait, at least you know your case is live and being looked at, albeit a longer process than anticipated. I would worry if you were left behind and it hadn't been touched. It will come, you will just need to relax and wait for that moment. Let USCIS do their 'thing' whatever that thing is, they will get around to you.

I will not look back on this journey with fond memories, but I will look back knowing that every step was worth it, whatever the outcome.
