Hey folks, 

I had my interview on 24th Jan 2019, and the chap said that he was recommending approval and that  "it'll probably take a couple of weeks to approve," and that i would receive the card shortly after. 

 

It's been 89 days and nada. My status still says the case needs to be reviewed. Where do i stand here? I've been trying to find out processing times but i'm having no luck. 

 

I've spent the last hour trying to speak to a human on the USCIS phone line but I have to take a breather or i will lose my temper. They make it SO hard to talk to someone. 

 

Any thoughts?

They say it can take up to 180 days to review if I'm not mistaken. Just keep calling. Right at opening and closing is best.

Okay, thanks! I'll try. Do you know the call options i'm supposed to choose? Everything i'm trying is taking me to automated services. I can't remember how i got through to a human last time.

Sorry no. I feel it changes whenever they like, randomly and on purpose which is why they sneak in the disclaimer "our options have changed".
