While I personally understand your point; They want the full document is all, as with any document.  I've been told even for birth certificate, you should send a copy of the back, even if it's blank - some states have info on the front and back.

 

Perhaps there could be something in the middle pages that for whatever reason they don't like, I have no idea...

 

 

 

I will have to wait and see, hopefully it will suffice..  My beneficiary was divorced twice and I sent the certified copy from the court on both of those as well.

The Case Inquiry date is now November 1st... any November 1st folks here who have yet to hear anything?

My chart shows 26 remaining in 'Recieved' status, though some of those might be 'silent'

We're Nov 2nd. You think I would be able to call uscis tomorrow and check on our case? Or its better to call congressman first?

 

Today is 209 days for us. 😕  Our case is very basic and not complicated either.

I would do both... maybe call USCIS and ask for tier 2 first, and if that is unhelpful, then your congressmen/senator.

 

I spoke with my senator's office today, their office was less than helpful and told me it might take 30 days for them to get an answer...

 

A friend advised calling both senators and my congressman....

Congressman in general are more helpful than Senators in most cases when dealing directly with the public. Senators seem to be so much busier. That is what I have observed.

Contacted my congressman yesterday and received an answer from a senior congressional staff member today after they contacted USCIS on my behalf.

 

I Quote. "We were informed that it(your petition) was recently assigned to an officer for adjudication, and that you can expect action in this matter within the next 45 days. We would be happy to continue to follow-up with the agency on your behalf periodically."

 

Our congressman in our area is very much pro immigration and has fought for people with immigration challenges. Even with that the best he could do was report back what USCIS reported to him with all his pull and influence. So it is bittersweet. At least I know it is assigned to an officer but it might take up to 45 days.

Still hoping for some news! I am Nov. 10th....

Hopefully it was a good day! 

I haven’t been able to log in here for the past few days without getting an Amazon gift card popup and kicking me out 🙄 

[QueenyGD 7]

Nov. 24- NOA 1 here. 

I just hope we'll be part of those approved scans soon. ☹

November Full Scan 5/30 7:55pm CST

 

68 Updates today, mostly RFEs

November 29th and 30th are the only sub-10% days left, but given they are still in the 180ish days, it's not too surprising... USCIS is trying to play catch-up after their order mishap.

I'm still confident this week and next week are going to see a lot of us getting our approvals, though some will certainly be 'silent'

 

Your Current Status: Case Was Approved	11
Your Current Status: Name Was Updated	1
Your Current Status: Request for Additional Evidence Was Mailed	46
Your Current Status: Response To USCIS' Request For Evidence Was Received	10
Grand Total	68

 

I did some analysis... Wednesdays are historically the worst day of the week for approvals, seems to be Wednesday is RFE day! Let's see lots of approvals tomorrow! 

(This data is from May for November cases only)
