Call again ASAP and confirm if they did or did not receive it. Not responding to an RFID (or having USCIS not receive it) is really serious as USCIS could make an adverse inference against you.

 

I believe there was a 60 day extension for responding but that's ONLY for requests issued up to May 1st. So, your due date will probably be Sunday June 21st.

 

If you sent it tracked, tell that to the agent and confirm that the tracking shows it was delivered and signed for (or collected).

 

If you have a copy of their original letter and the USCIS customer support agent says they can't see a response on file you should immediately send a new copy with all the evidence via recorded or trackable mail. (I'd recommend something expedited too, e.g. UPS Next Day or Priority Mail Express)

 

I'd recommend including a letter explaining the delay and include a copy of the tracking receipt from the first time you sent it, if you have one.

Thanks for the response. I did expedite the first one I sent, and I will be calling them on Monday and sending another expedited one as you recommended, if they tell me they did not receive it. I cannot take my mind off it tonight. I am so worried. Fingers crossed.

Hello fellow October filers. It's been pretty quiet on our thread lately, so I thought I would share some potentially good news with you. I found this post on the December 2019 K-1 AOS filers thread (it's not my case status). This person is assigned to the Kansas City field office, and their appointment letter gave them an August 3rd interview date. 

 

So, let's hope that we can all post something similar soon. Good luck everyone!

Well we live in Tucson AZ so our local office would be here, when I made my profile Tucson wasn’t an option only Phoenix was on there. Are you an October filer? Our case is a little different so idk if maybe that’s why we got an update, my husband is here and has been her since he was 6 and he is under TPS so our process was a bit different, but wishing the best for everybody! 🙏🏽

Hello everyone, early Oct 2109 AOS filer here. 
 

Everything was going smoothly until COVID hit. 
I received the “interview is ready to be scheduled” notification on January 23rd, and haven’t heard anything since. 
 

I suspect more ppl are in the same situation. So I just wanted to know if anyone knew what the best step forward was with the massive layoffs incoming. 
 

Also, anyone with the Seattle office and a similar timeline?

 

Thank you all, and best of luck.

More good news...Application Service Centers are planning to re-open soon! Most of them are scheduled to re-open this month. See the list here: https://www.uscis.gov/about-us/uscis-office-closings

 

Although the ASCs re-opening does not guarantee any movement with all of our individual cases, it certainly seems to be a step in the right direction.

 

Good luck to everyone.

Pretty sure that even in normal (i.e. non-pandemic) times, this would be totally normal. I've heard of it taking more than a YEAR between the “interview is ready to be scheduled” notification and the interview actually being scheduled. Oh, I should probably mention I'm at the San Francisco field office, which currently has the longest wait times in the country.

Hi guys I am a newbie here. I filed i-485, i130, i-131, i-765 all back in October 2019. I've received my combo card for EAD and Advance Parole. However, my status for i-485 has been 'interview ready to be scheduled' since December 2019, and I haven't heard anything from USCIS now for almost 9 months and for sure more delay because of the pandemic My field office is Sacramento. Anyone having same problem as I am?

and another question is I am helping my friend who's been staying here for no valid visa and her passport will gonna expire soon. My question is how she will gonna renew her Philippine passport here in the United States? or is she allowed to renew it even though she doesn't have any valid papers?



Thank you for the Answers..

It's not a problem since the processing time for your field office is between 8 and 30 months.
