CONGRATS! That is great news. Another innocent sole released from "name check hell":)

Next week I call again on Carina if no word from USCIS; it will be 45 days since the referral was supposedly issued (somewhere in the neighborhood of 600 days since Carina applied for AOS and 275 days since her interview) and they said to check back in 30-45 days if no answer-heck, I am even giving them the benefit of the whole time.

What are these people doing anyway??

This poor thread needs a "bump"! :thumbs:

Called USCIS again today and requested a second "referral", though based on the answer I got when I inquired about the first one they don't seem to do much good either. The lady said the referral was sent 6/15, but no that no one has touched the file at all. Sure am glad they made it a priority. :wacko::help:

Anyway, the 45 day mark from when we received the letter dated 06/26/06 from the CIS Ombudman stating they had sent their formal inquiry will be up after we return from Moldova (visiting there from 8/7 to 8/19-Carina gets to use her AP we had to file for the second time for!); so we will advise them of the status (assuming still no response) when we get back.

Good luck to all!

Dave, Marina, Carina
