Hello, 

 

FYI - updated the spreadsheet. I've added USCIS Priority Date. Idea is to see if somehow that affects our processing time.. I remember a rep telling me that each month priority dates open up, depending on how many they have, this could delay our cases.. But I don't think they consider our (CR1/IR1) priority dates.. But maybe they do...

Because your case exceeded normal processing times and was escalated to supervisor review.

 

They're going to review what caused the delays ( both from your end and theirs). Either that or they may have found potential problems with the information that you have submitted and are reviewing further before a decision is granted.  Were you well over the poverty line?  If you were closed, did you provide additional evidence in the form of employment letter and/or pay stubs?  If your taxes were filed jointly, did you include W2s?  

 

Is your visa status on ceac also reflecting administrative processing? If not, I wouldn't dwell on the verbiage they used. They're basically telling you it's gone for supervisor review due to the extensive delay which is part of their process.

 

And the 60 days is from the date of your interview or the submission of supplemental documents, whichever is later.  That means you are well beyond the expected response time.  Even if your senator's office can't do anything to expedite, it highlights negatively on the NVC.  As mentioned above, a little pressure from other departmental bodies never hurts. It may inspire them to pay closer attention to your case - at least more so than without.

• Every time you submit any new information = new scan date
• Every time you get new scan date = 11 week expected review time
• Your last scan date = 2/15 = more than 11 weeks

Any time after Scan Date (2/15) + 60 days, you can start taking action (either escalating to supervisor or contacting your senator).

Since yours is beyond processing time, you should be allowed to contact your senator so you can actually take action now.

Also my checklists had no financial problems. The first one ,in the sponsor household size i put 1 for my husband where it says if you are married put 1 for your spouse which I was supposed to put 1 where it says put the same number as te the number of people that you are sponsoring, even though the total was right  . 2nd checklist  it is because i  made the connection but sent only the corrected page not the hole AOS application back.

Every time you submit any documentation to the NVC, your timer resets.  Your latest scan date is considered, not your first.

• 2/15 + 11 weeks = Wednesday, May 3, 2017

After May 3rd, you can ask for supervisor review and ask your Senator for help since it is beyond normal processing times.

Since you have already requested Supervisor review, that adds another 60 days for supervisor review.

• Date your documents went into Supervisor Review status + 60 days = early - Mid July

There is nothing else you can do with the NVC which is why i suggested reaching out to your Senator for assistance.
