Effective March 18, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is suspending in-person services at its field offices, asylum offices and Application Support Centers (ASCs) to help slow the spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). This suspension of services will be effective until at least April 1. In the meantime, USCIS will provide limited emergency services. Please call the Contact Center for assistance with emergency services.

USCIS field offices will send notices to applicants and petitioners with scheduled appointments and naturalization ceremonies impacted by this closure. USCIS asylum offices will send interview cancellation notices and automatically reschedule asylum interviews. When the interview is rescheduled, asylum applicants will receive a new interview notice with the new time, date and location of the interview. When USCIS again resumes normal operations, USCIS will automatically reschedule ASC appointments due to the office closure. You will receive a new appointment letter in the mail. Individuals who had InfoPass or other appointments must reschedule through the USCIS Contact Center once field offices are open to the public again. Please check to see if your field office has been reopened before reaching out to the USCIS Contact Center.   

Education and precautions are the strongest tools against infection. Get the latest facts by visiting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s COVID-19 website. Continue to practice good health habits, refrain from handshakes or hugs as greetings, and wash hands and clean surfaces appropriately.

USCIS will provide further updates as the situation develops and will continue to follow CDC guidance. Please also visit uscis.gov/coronavirus for updates.

 

 

 

 

Just got that in my email just for everyone's attention.

God bless us and keep us, family and friends safe with his Almighty protection from this virus. 🙏🙏🙏

This suspension of services will be effective until at least April 1. In the meantime, USCIS will provide limited emergency services.

Good day everyone, I hope all of you are doing safe and healthy considering what's been happening.

 

I have a quick question, I submitted I-360 40 days ago and yesterday I saw that they are going to send me an RFE. I read somewhere here before that if they send RFE 30-90 days after application it means that I may have missed submitting a basic document like police clearance. Is this true? I'm anxiously waiting for the letter to arrive..

Yes, this is essentially a request for initial evidence. You probably are missing documents that qualifies you for the petition..so it's a good thing you are given the opportunity to put it together. They are no longer obligated to...anyway keep us informed. Goodluck.👍

Stay safe!

i360 sent August 28 2018

RFE (police clearance) received in mid September 2018

RFE answered and received October 23 2018

i360 APPROVED March 18 2020

 

I am beyond happy, I cannot believe this moment has finally come, even in these hard times with the virus that is trending right now, I have one thing to be truly happy about!

My case got approved and one chapter has come to an end, I know I still have a lot to go in this journey, but I feel like the most hardest and toughest part is over. I had a flashback to back in 2018 when I felt hopeless, scared, lonely and was I feeling like nothing or no one can save me. But I was patient and I never lost faith in myself. I always believed there is something good even in the worst things in life. I guess this was my present.

 

To everyone still waiting for approvals - never lose hope and always believe in yourself!

 

P.S. Evidences I sent :

- my own personal statement

- 2 statements from my friends

- only one utility bill

-credit card statement

-pictures of abuse and wounds

-statements from primary care doctor and dentist

 

I did not have psychological evaluation or police reports or statements from shelter.

 

Good luck everyone!
