Is there any risk in continually contacting USCIS before their requested deadline?

I remember seeing one post here from someone who kept nagging USCIS and was told not to contact them again. You can not annoy them into making a positive decision on your case. I think this was their polite way of telling you to be patient and stop bugging them. I would do as told by the agency that has the power to approve or deny my petition.

I have no evidence either way for you.  Here's my opinion:

 

Think about the person with a big pile of applications in front of them.  They are being interrupted once a day by queries from you about your file.  If I was that person, I would pull your file, staple the update to it, and put it at the bottom of the pile as "additional information received".  And every time you did it, I'd do that again.  

 

Again, this is my opinion.  I don't know anything for sure.  But everyone is in a line to get processed.  I don't see you helping your case by "nagging" them.

Look, I'm with you guys. And this is not normally how I would handle a customer service interaction by any stretch. There were just a few circumstances attached where I was considering it. But even though we mostly don't know for sure, I'm not calling them again.
