USCIS Police Visit to Employer Job

[MarriednWaiting 0]

Has anyone heard about USCIS 'ICE' Police officers visiting an applicants employer, on a K3 before any NOIA or anything?

A uniformed USCIS armed Police officer showed up to my DC federal job, in a department of 7 people with no other visa people in my department and spent about 15 minutes with my boss, and made about 2 pages of notes on a yellow 5 x 7 pad of paper.

I asked my very stern nontalkative boss about it and he, an immigrant himself, said "oh, that was nothing".

Now I know they probably have to train thier ICE cops and they like our cafeteria on rare occasions for breakfast, but this seems wrong and bizzar. What if my boss hated immigrants, or I did not discuss my reasons for leave being to get married or that I got married at all?

I have not even recieved one single reciept from USCIS yet, they got my I-129 and I-130 on October 24, 2007. On November 19, I was not in the system when I went to the local office. And 10 days later they are doing a job site interview with my boss? Any other similar stories?

Seeing as your boss is an immigrant himself, could they have been paying him a special visit?

So you want to know why ICE was questioning your immigrant boss? If he is an immigrant it could be personal. At ten days I seriously doubt USCIS has even reviewed your case yet. Relax and hope for the best.

That would be my guess or that fact that the OP has a federal job. Could USCIS be a bit more stringent on background checks when someone works for the government?
