Based on the timelines, it looks like they are starting to process July received dates and are kicking back up again

JULY?  😨 That seems like a major backlog. Here's to hoping they blow though the mega piles

Haha I thought that was promising! USCIS says 13 - 27.5 months for Nebraska Service Center. I was tentatively planning at least 18 months when I first filed

I see a couple of December filers at SRC are got their 10 year green cards approved this week. Congrats to them. As a November filer at SRC I guess that means I need to wait for the interview appointment.

I wouldn't think that
I mean there's a bunch of SRC folks in like September where nothing is happening either. 

 

I think if you are one of those that recently had a JOINT interview in the states (K1, CR6, F1, etc), then an interview might never happen- and the delay is just that the person holding your files are processing other applications. 

They're moving cases around to navigate work load. 

Basically what am saying is no one knows what's happening.
I wouldn't be discouraged and automatically think they "forgot" you or U will have an interview.

Well, this is what happens when USCIS tries to cover their terrible work!!! RFE issued on Feb 12 2021. By a strike of luck happened to to download an app and found out the same day there was an update for our ROC. Waited 2 weeks for the mentioned letter, never made it to us. Went online to order a copy of this letter. Got a copy of the original RFE about week and a half after ordering it. Had a talk to a lawyer to handle this RFE because of the large portion of denials to our evidence. It was a lot of rejected evidence and some got lost that was sent originally. As you can see on the letter...the orginal RFE was inside an envelope. RFE from February 12 2021 inside an envelope from March 17 2021. Why in the world, would I receive that letter today (3/20/2021). If this happened to us, it can happen to anyone. Good that I personally don't trust a pencil pusher to do the right thing.  Check your case online and by mail from informed delivery also. It cost us a lot of headaches and a high Zoom meeting fee for the lawyer to take care of this matter. Paperwork answering the RFE is already in the mail and should hit USCIS office any day today.  Who could be cheering how they say one thing and do cover-up for bad work at USCIS!!!

 

Good luck to all of you.

Let this be a lesson to us all- this is OUR lives and futures. do what you need to do to ensure things are where they need to be. 

It is definitely bad when something like this happens, and I understand the frustration. Let’s not forget that even if it shouldn’t happen ever, I don’t know the numbers exactly but this agency is processing millions of different kinds of applications at year, each application requires them to send a number of correspondences to each applicant. They are working with less than normal amount of employees and having to deal with the pandemic.

There is this surge of migrants, sometimes during the summer it reaches 100k at month, each applying for assylum, work permits, etc.
Errors as terrible as they can be in certain circumstances, will happen, it is not a perfect system. In a perfect system 0 errors occur.

When errors happen we have to document everything and contact them as much as possible and even involve our congressman or congresswoman if necessary, until the issue is corrected. Don’t apply and go dormant, keep checking online status, on both systems. Sign up for informed delivery with USPS. Check your email and spam email.

Hey guys just checking in to see if you may know the answer to this question. So we went the CR1 route and my wife received her NOA back in January. We are being processed at the MSC. Any idea how long until we know when the interview or biometrics may be or if they are even required during the pandemic? Thank you!
