Thank you. I feel relieved. What about the separate petition form? 1 for me and 1 for our 4 month old

There have been a number of people rejected because, they didn't sign the form, or the form they used was not the current version, or they have submitted the wrong filing fee. some with kids have been sent RFE so be prepared or have your husband include a DNA test for all.

Hi all!

 

Based on everyone's advice, I went ahead to call USCIS to talk to Tier 2 support.

 

My background: i'm US Citz, sponsoring Spouse with  PD date: Apr 28, 17 in Texas Service Center.

 

The tier 2 support told me one Officier JUST "touched my case" and began reviewing it on Nov 30th (today is Dec 6). So based on other people's post, I should expect a decision 1 week to 10 days from having an officer assigned to the case.

 

YAY, it's good news. They may ask for RFE or approve... we will see. Don't worry! Either call USCIS to ask if an officer has been assigned.   My case has been 222 days (as of today) since PD... so it's worth a call if you are 180 days or 200 days or more from PD.

So I called uscic today and ask for a tier officer and told him my case was over a 190 days ,

 

They said that an officer is reviewing my case but he didn't say when to expect anything ,he then tried to play off the entire thing saying that they are now processing files for February 13 which I know is a lie, 

When an officer has your case how long before u hear from someone anybody knows
