Hi guys, who have luck to reach out to a Tier 2 officer. I need help please, when you ask for a tier 2 officer, do you get transferred directly? Or do they tell you we will schedule a time for you and call you back?

 

I was told they will call me back within 14 days. Has this been always the case?

When I called in I was given a timeframe (15 days) when the Tier 2 officer would call back and the number they would call from. It was closer to the end of that range when I received a callback. If I remember correctly, it was the 13th or 14th day from when I initially called in.

That makes me feel better! Thanks for sharing!

Hi All,

 

I had my interview yesterday at the Tukwila USCIS. It was super easy and the officer interviewed me via a screen... took the oath the same day.

 

I filed in Nov 2019

 

Wishing everyone a good luck.

Congratulations! Finally done with USCIS!

It depends where do you live. King county in Seattle, the guys reported a one day name change if you go earlier. Other counties may need to go  fill out the paperwork, and they will set you up for hearing in the next day if you filled out your forms early on the day. You can do your hearing in zoom for some counties. If you decided to do so, make sure they have everything they need. For me, I went back and forth three times as they forget something every time. One of my zoom hearing got cancelled, because they forgot to copy my id. It would be easier if you are in the court for sure for hearing. For the fees, I think it's per county, so check your county court website. For me, it was about $120, if I remember right. 

 

No name change in Seattle interviews. Do it before your interview in the court, and have the certificate with you. If you do it after your interview, I heard in this forum that it can be expensive.

Yes, you will need to go to your county court. Is Renton King county? Or south King county? If it's King county, I would go to King county court in Seattle early, and you may get your name change certificate the same day. Then you take that to the interview, and the officer will make the name change for you. If you did not do that, you can not make name change, and you can ask the officer to ignore your request.

Yes is king county

 I will check and see where can I go .

Still crickets on my end. Has anyone had success reaching out to an elected official? Is there an email template they used.

 

Oddly, i still have not seen any update since a few here and there. Did the USCIS Seattle office just hold back on processing?

Yes, I have seen this before in this forum. Is your interview in Seattle or Portland?
