A lot of approvals could be caught up in the Christmas post.

 

I would suggest making a phone call to USCIS at 1800-375-5283.  My wife phoned yesterday and when she got though she just said she was told to speak to a tier 2 representative. The guy said no problem and transferred our call, got the automated service asking if she would like a call back to the number she dialed from and answered yes. The automated service said 62 minutes and right on time she got a call back. 

 

The tier 2 guy seemed surprised and said the approval was only given a few days ago and he would have no further information for us as its too soon. I think he was under the impression we wanted something else, we just wanted to know if the I-30 was approved.

 

It's just nice to know you have the approval, I am more than happy to wait for the notice when it arrives.

 

 

I agree. I s/w an IO earlier today and advised approval notice was sent to me two days ago.

So they called back after 68 minutes and it was no help at all. In fact she kind of seemed rude. She said the same thing that the processing time is still Feb 2nd for Texas and it could take 1-2 months to get to March. Such bullshit. This is so frustrating.

It was exactly the same thing i got from the 3rd I/O that called back he was extremely rude, telling me there is no definite processing time that they only give a guessestimate of processing time and that as of right now it is taking about 12 months for processing. He was super rude.....

I called USCIS today and talked with an immigration officer. She was really helpful and she told me that my case is approved. The case status was updated one hour after talking with her.

 

However when I initaially called, the customer service rep told me that I need to waiting as my case is in normal processing time and tire 2 won't be able to help me out much. However I kinda went mad and insisted that I still want to talk with an immigration officer. Customer service rep knows @##. Just talk with an immigration officer/tire 2 rep to get latest status of your case. 

 

My PD is March 14th.
