June 28th - July 10th Skipped Cases..

[SolidSnakex 1]

Hey guys!

 

Is anyone part of the 1600 skipped applicants from June - July? So from my research, it’s not the first time USCIS has skipped cases. I’ve heard that it was a “technical” issue this time around. So given the fact the that they haven’t worked on this case range. It would mean the time to hear back is probably 3-6 months..

 

The California processing center has an average 8.5 wait time. So once that time passes make sure to send the USCIS an inquiry. It probably won’t do much but it’s something.. Here are additional steps you can take once you’ve sent in an inquiry:

Additional Steps:

1. Contact USCIS

 Call 1-800-375-5283, and request a Tier 2 officer.

 Submit an Outside Normal Processing Time Inquiry if your case is delayed.

 

2. Expedite Your Case (If Eligible)

USCIS allows expedite requests for:

- Severe financial loss

- Humanitarian reasons

- USCIS errors

-Call USCIS or use Ask Emma to submit an inquiry request.

 

3. Request Congressional Help

 Your Congressional Representative can escalate delayed cases.

 Find yours: House | Senate

 

4. File a DHS Ombudsman ComplaintIf USCIS remains unresponsive, submit a Case Assistance Request (response within ~45 days).

 

6. Consult an Immigration Attorney

If all else fails, a lawyer can file a Mandamus lawsuit to force action.

If we all come together as a community and send inquiries and escalate. Hopefully we can push them to take action! Let’s do this! Stay strong!
