Hi guys. This morning I just realized or seen a new status on my I-131. It's states that "On December 8 2022 correspondence was received and USCIS is reviewing it." 

 

What correspondence is this???

 

This is on my I-131 that was already approved and received on July 2022 and used it several times already. So what correspondence could this be? 

Few weeks ago I saw another update saying "A Notice was returned to USCIS because the Post office couldn't deliver it" that's on November 21st of last month.

 

Anyone with similar experiences???

 

Thank you.

Our last joke (if correlation = causation) resulted in approvals!  In hopes of more, here on Sunday is our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke:

==============================================

A POLITICIAN IN THE VILLAGE

 

A politician visited a small village and asked what the residents' needs were.

 

"We have two basic needs, honorable sir," replied the villager leader.  "First, we have a hospital, but no doctor."

 

On hearing this, the politician brought out his phone, spoke for a while, and told them not to worry, because a doctor would be there tomorrow.

 

He asked for the second problem.

 

"Second, sir, there is no cellphone reception anywhere in this village."

:P
