Yes but if I'm not mistaken, you have been checking only myaccount, not the egov case tracker I quoted above. It's possible that in the last two weeks, your Next Steps status has changed, unless you've been tracking both sites all the while.

I checked with your link. it's showing the same thing for me.

Are you certain that your case is still in background check ? And yet your Next Steps says "We will prepare your case for officer review.  If we need more information, we will notify you" ? 

 

I asked others who know their BC is done but are pending officer review at their FO, and their status also says the same thing. So I don't know what to make of this.

 

Possibilities: 

* The information given to you that your case is still in BC, is wrong. It's actually done but the system they looked at is not up to date. Or they just don't want people asking 'why is this FO so slow' and blame BC

* Your case is indeed still in BC, and this status message means nothing - it applies to both those waiting in BC, and done with BC but waiting for case review and interview date. 

 

I am sure. I went to info pass 2 weeks ago. My status has never changed after my fingerprints.

Do you know if the Senator is a better choice than the Ombudsman? Is it a good idea to write to both at the same time? Thanks.

I heard writing to senator is a good way to resolve immigration issues, especially in California.

I was thinking the same... It might be a good idea to write to both.

Were you delayed during your BC for the green card ? Also, may I know what your Next Steps status says on the following site: https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do  ? If you aren't already familiar with this site, please note that this is not the same as myaccount. You need to create a separate login, enter your NBC/IOE case number to track, and then check the status. It will show the current status at the top, and two sections below for 'Case History' and 'Next Steps'. It would be very interesting to see what those two sections say. 

No, I don't have any other case with them. My next step on N 400 is the same with campbell85.  "We will prepare your case for officer review.  If we need more information, we will notify you."

Oh yes, got it, for the next steps it says: "We will prepare your case for officer review.  If we need more information, we will notify you."

We have the exactly same status....I am thinking to write to a senator.

Another update:

Called USCIS and asked to speak to Tier 2 officer, he reiterated that there's nothing they can do because my case is still pending in National Benefits Center and they can process it for up to 12 months due to pending background check, so looks like I've exhausted every single option that was available and at this point I can only wait for the end of March to see if my interview gets scheduled. 

How is your case now? I filed on April 6th, 2017, and was told my case is backlogged due to security clearance. I haven't heard any news after fingerprint from them.

My priority date is April 6, 2017. Till now, I haven't heard anything after fingerprints, not even an update. I went to infopass today and was told my case was backlogged due to security clearance.... 

Is there anything I can do ?
