If this is a glitch, how do you explain the person on this thread that got their visa approved after a few days their application got transferred? I don't believe this is a glitch.

Because a person could have been approved at cervice center and still get a glitch as even after approval case is still  pending until your green card is produced

That would be a big coincidence if that's the case and perfect timing, but then again, time will tell if this is a glitch or not, they got approved 3 days after their case was transferred, so we will find out this week who else gets approved or not.

people get approved every day ( and majority of them are not even on VJ) so does not seem like a big coincidence to me.

I guess its not a glitch. People have been calling their tier 2 and they are saying that it is true. (I know few are saying the opposite) Also those who got a response for their I-751 application like "card being Produced" or whatever when they are trying to put their other WAC# its giving them the error like the old days. So that means their files weren't transferred because they are done. Lets see what the future holds for us.

I was wondering which Tracking number was giving them the "card being produced", so it's the old one that we get the Fee's waived error, that makes sense.

So there is a person last week who received a mail with an acceptance letter for their i-751,  and yes its the old one... and we asked her if she can check her other WAC# and its still giving her errors.

Guys i just got a called back from Tier 2 

First, he said the case is indeed transferred at local office and he sees what i see - status about transfer  ( just like they see fee waived glitch from other WAC, and if i dont correct that i have not filed any fee waiver and its a glitch, they think i did because thats what it shows on a screen) 

Then i asked him how come thousands cases got tranferred from cervice centers to officess and he goes like oh you know other ppl with same exact status? Then that must be a glitch, let me see. After a brief hold ive been told that 1 system is showing that it was transfered, and another that case is still at CSC

He said its uncler where is my case as it showing 2 differenrt things at their systems. He went ahead and created a service request at CSC to see if they in a posession of my case, will hear back in 2 weeks. 

I think service request is the only thing that would clarify if the case still at cervice center or not, as infornation should go directly from CSC 

Moral of the story: Tier 2 officers jusat like us are nor able to see whee exactly the case at currently. The "workload transfer" is just a personal guess, not an actual information. 

My bet is on glitch. Went through all that with "fees waived" thing.

I still believe it to be a glitch.

CR1 / DCF (London): 2012 / 2013 (4 months from I-130 petition to visa in hand)

I-751 #1- April 2015 [Denied]

 

April 2015 : I-751 Joint filing package sent fedex next day 09:00am from UK ($lots - thanks). 
Jan 2017: Notification that an interview has been scheduled at a local office. Bizarrely still no RFE... 
Jan 2017: 2hr wait, then interview terminated before it began, due to moving my ID to another state 2 wks prior. New interview 'in a few months...maybe.'   Informed them that divorce proceedings are underway, but not finalised at this time. 
March 2017: An Interview was scheduled - marked as no-show as they didn't actually send out a notification of interview. FML 
April  2017: Filed an official complaint with the ombudsman, and have requested Senator & Congressman assistance
August 2017: Interview - switched to a (finalised) divorce waiver. Told that decision will be made that afternoon, but no problems foreseen with my case. 
October 2017: Letter of Denial received - reason given as 'I-751 petition was not properly filed'. Discovered ex-spouse made false allegations to USCIS in 2015. No opportunity given to review & refute allegations  - contrary to USCIS policy.

I-751 #2 - Oct 2017 - Mar 2021[Denied] 

 

October 2017: Within 72hrs of receiving denial notice, a new waiver I-751, divorce decree & $680 cheque, sent to Vermont via FedEx overnight 9am priority.  
Dec 2019: Filed FOIA request for full A# file
Feb 2020: FOIA request completed - entire A# file received as a .PDF; 197 pages fully redacted, and 80 partially redacted. Don't waste your time!
March 2021: I-751 #2 denied for lack of evidence. No RFE, no interview, and evidence in previous I-751 not reviewed - contrary to policy. Huge errors in adjudication.

N-400 - Feb 2018 - Apr 2021 [Denied]

 

February 2018: N-400 filed online.  $725 paid to the USCIS paperwork wastage fund

February  2019: Interview - cancelled after a four hour wait due to 'missing paperwork' on their end. Promised Expedited reschedule.

March 2021: Interview letter received, strangely dated after I-751 denial. No I-751 interview conducted. N-400 interview and test passed, given 'cannot make a decision at this time' paper due to the ongoing I-751 nightmare...

April 2021: N-400 denial received citing recent I-751 denial as basis for ineligibility, even though it should have been a combo interview 🤯

I AM JACK'S COMPLETE LACK OF SURPRISE

Service Motion - March 2021 [Sent via FedEx & COMPLETELY IGNORED by USCIS]

 

March 2021: Service Motion request sent overnight addressed direectly to field office director, requesting urgent review and re-opening, based on errors in adjudication - citing USCIS policy, AFM and memorandums as basis for errors. This was completely ignored by USCIS.

 I-751 #3 - June 2021 - Jan 2024 [Denied]

 

IT'S GROUNDHOG DAY

June 2021: I-751 #3 (30+lbs/5000 pages of paperwork) & another $680 sent to USCIS via FedEx ($300+..thanks) .... 

June 2021: Receipt issued, card charged, biometrics waived, infopass scheduled for I-551 stamp number ten.....

Feb 2022: RFIE (no, not an RFE, a Request For Initial Evidence) received, for copies of the divorce paperwork that they already have 😑

July 2022: Infopass for I-551 stamp number eleven.....

August 2023: Infopass for I-551 stamp number twelve....

January 2024: Denial received, ignoring the overwhelming majority of the filing, abundance of evidence, and refutation of a provably false allegation. The denial also contradicts itself in multiple places, as if it was written by someone with an IQ <50.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

 

2024: FML. Seriously. I'm done.

Yup, me too.

 

I know everyone is hoping for a quick turnaround but let's also not get false hopes here.  Besides, if ultimate goal is N400 as I would imagine is for most, this whole transfer would be a huge mess and could lead to more complications.  We've all already been waiting a long time so honestly at this point I just want the N400 and no more unnecessary steps, interviews, and time-wasters.

The so-called updates have been showing up since Friday, perhaps earlier. The least USCIS management could do is post a news update to either confirm the transfers and the logic behind it, or own up to a glitch. The Tier 1 reps must be going crazy with all the calls related to the transfers. 

 

Someone in the USCIS chain of command must know what exactly is going on.

I-751 has been shown to be a very low priority filing for USCIS....and to be honest, if they cared about applicants at all they would need to own up to a hell of lot more screw ups than just this one.

Feb 2022: RFIE (no, not an RFE, a Request For Initial Evidence) received, for copies of the divorce paperwork that they already have 😑

July 2022: Infopass for I-551 stamp number eleven.....

August 2023: Infopass for I-551 stamp number twelve....

January 2024: Denial received, ignoring the overwhelming majority of the filing, abundance of evidence, and refutation of a provably false allegation. The denial also contradicts itself in multiple places, as if it was written by someone with an IQ <50.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

 

2024: FML. Seriously. I'm done.
