Well, as I reported Friday in another thread, the Senator's office phoned Wes at home. They accidentally called me here again at work today. Accidentally because it was another aide who called and didn't realize we had already received information on Friday. I guess I can't complain because at least they are on top of it, eh?

At any rate, I am more probing than my darling husband, so while we don't have any improvement in our situation, I did at least learn a bit more about the process.

As you probably already know, they turn the name about all sorts of ways to run the check (reversal of name order, use of initials, etc). The check is domestic (FBI, etc) as well as international (IBIS).

Here's the part that's new to me. Your elected representative (or their aide most likely) contacts a USCIS liason. The liason looks into the actual USCIS records. They do NOT contact your service center. An inquiry by a liason is considered 'higher up' the food chain than a query by someone at the service center. As you might guess, the records the liason are able to access are not at all the same as what you and I see on USCIS.gov. It's much more detailed. A notation is placed into the file that the elected representative has inquired - hopefully this prevents the 'black hole' effect.

Just thought you'd want to know.

that sounds very interesting...

especially cause some people say that once the background check is pending even senators office would not be able to help because technicaly it is outside of USCIS handeling...

Anyway... maybe that is step we have to try to take after all

Thanks yet again for more helpful info
