Just got in from my Infopass and the immigration officer was very nice. NYC FIELD OFFICE

 

She explained to me that at the internal level the "local office" that the case has been received at is actually Vermont in my case and California service centre for others being that its for form Removal of Conditions.

 

She explained that the files have been in storage for a whole year but until the immigration officer needs the files they will request it Or a bulk and when a worker sends it to them it will come up as Received by Local office so its no longer in a vault but actually in the office to be processed. When they start to work on it that update might come again and do remember they are in bulks so updates might not show up same time.

 

 

Thanks much to nywestq for posting this.

 

It should put to rest all the wild speculation here about a mass transfer of files to some location near our homes.

 

All the posts we have seen on USCIS website mean nothing other than our files have been moved from one room to another room within  the large buildings housing Vermont and California centers.

Good try, except . . .  the messages people get specifically use the word 'corrected.'  

See below  for an example that was posted earlier.

 

March 15, 2018: On march 14 we corrected your Date of Birth for you case 

March 15, 2018: On march 14 we corrected your name for your case

 

Corrected means there was an  error.

 

Again, incomprehensible to  me  that the people who get these messages are not  in a panic about what name and date of birth is  going to show up on the 10 year Green  Card they get.

Just got in from my Infopass and the immigration officer was very nice. NYC FIELD OFFICE

 

So she explained to me the CRI-89 Receipt Number from the biometrics is actually what we should track as the I751 receipt number is really an internal number for officers so they understand the wording of everything. she explained to me however thats why all the received at local office for the I751 number has been showing up. She explained to me that at the internal level the "local office" that the case has been received at is actually Vermont in my case and California service centre for others being that its for form Removal of Conditions. She explained that the files have been in storage for a whole year but until the immigration officer needs the files they will request it Or a bulk and when a worker sends it to them it will come up as Received by Local office so its no longer in a vault but actually in the office to be processed. When they start to work on it that update might come again and do remember they are in bulks so updates might not show up same time. She told me when the form gets transferred you will get a "Transferred to new office and that office has jurisdiction for your case" followed by the notice in the mail. She told me for internal matters the local office for each form is where u filed it based on your address. However the Local Field Office for a person is based on zip code. so local office goes by form and where they are filed and Local Field office is by your zip code. there was so much more I learnt from her however I don't want to bore you too much so I explained as much as I could. I went there for the extension stamp and was given a 60 day validity stamp as she said the system showing that I had a DOB and Name update a few days ago and yesterday my case was approved. also I was told most updates tend to show up  2 to 3 days after its entered into the system. So Im now waiting on my approval letter in the mail which she assume I will have by Monday. she wanted to print the approval for me which I didn't know was possible however it wouldn't allow her as the approved hasn't updated on the case status site yet but she could see I was approved.

In other words, nothing has changed, and all those updates about "local office" transfers are just internal organization of the documents, nothing else.

 

All CSC filers, included me, will be here for a long long while until we get approved or something drastic changes within CSC.

 

Lucky VSC filers, they're not that far behind in approvals.

I think you're worrying for nothing, and reading intent where there is none. It's a generic computer programmed response to data entered on a screen. Maybe not the best choice of language, but it just means someone input data in the Date of Birth and Name boxes on a screen. Try to relax.

 

Is your timeline updated?

We received your case

You do not need to do anything at this time

We will begin processing your case and will review it to make sure you have submitted all of the required information and documents. We will let you know if we need anything else from you.

If you do not receive your notice by March 28, 2018, send us a case inquiry and select that you did not receive your notice by mail.

If your mailing address changes, update your address with us.

 

question: does this mean they are sending notice for an interview? or an approval letter

I understand what you are saying.

 

However, when I get such a message that my name and date of birth have been changed; I will certainly be concerned about what might show up on my 10 year Green Card.

 

And really worried if they change my gender !  I don't have the money for the needed operations.
