Tried to upload a pic, but keeps saying file too big.

Hi, I'm having the same problem, the max total size allowed has lowered to 0.01MB and it won't let me post any image. Did you find a way to fix it? Thanks!

Yes!!!  They complain it is cold when it hits 80° there...LOL  Wait for that first -10° windchill!

Haha, it is a blessing that they will come in late Spring to come! I went to school in upstate New York, but that Chicago windchill...there's nothing like it!

No, that's what happened to me as well when I tried to upload a picture. The file size is absurdly small, so you have to find a way to make a picture .01 MB file size....or fine one that small, like I did ahaha.

You have to experience that feel on your face just once.  There is nothing like it.

Haha, yes, except with the windchill, you lose all feeling in your face and any other exposed body part!

 

But gosh, Magnificent Mile during Christmas, one of my favorite memories! I felt like I was in a Christmas movie, the kids are in for a treat!

I do miss the old Marshall Field's.  The window displays and the lights.  Macy's tried but it wasn't the same.

The problem is that the limit keeps getting smaller and smaller. Before posting the last picture it was 0.03MB and I had to make its size smaller. Now the limit is even lower. Unfortunately that strategy isn't very sustainable...

When I joined, it was already .01MB, and I don't see how they can make it any lower,  it's already almost impossible to find a picture so small...

Hi guys!

 

We submitted an "outside of normal processing" on Jan 31 - my USC has called today to chase up USCIS. He got a LOVELY guy on the other end of they phone, and he admitted we are outside of normal processing, that our file has been overlooked, and that when this does happen, it is always at CSC due to workload. We are the second call in 3 days he has personally taken about overlooked June cases...

 

He said we should have a response by 15 Feb from our case inquiry  - it's been received & assigned to an officer at CSC to FIND OUR FILE!!!! All these theories about someone taking it to he breakroom and forgetting about it may ring true...

 

If they don't answer us by 15 Feb, we can contact USCIS again & they will provide us a with a direct email address for CSC. If that doesn't bear fruit, we can send another USCIS request 30 days after our original. It's one massive merry-go-round without the merry :( (typical processing time for USCIS request is 5-15 days)

 

He looked over our case and said we should be approved as we didn't miss anything; however, if they can't find the file there is an avenue to resubmit under "USCIS error" and receive an expedited priority on our file. 

 

@John & Rose, @Martin3517 maybe our files are in the same pile???

So my question is. My fiancé is filing out the Visa and it’s one section in the application. Anyone know what it means priority date for passport ?

K1 visas do not have a priority date. The DS 160 does ask for one and you cant continue until you put a date in. We have done some research and many people have used their Noa1 date. :)
