JimmyHou...

Thanks!!!

[KASH2011 382]

Hello, had my oath ceremony this morning. It didn't take long and it was really fun!! Just wanted to use this moment to say a BIG!!THANKS!! To Visa Journey. I'm now a US CITIZEN. I applied for passport after ceremony. Good luck to people that are still waiting..!

Congrats!

[witamar 4]

Just to recap: there were 4 of us who filed in December who were waiting to be placed inline.

One created an inquiry two weeks ago and was placed inline last week.

One created an inquiry last week and was placed inline yesterday.

One did nothing and was placed inline yesterday.

One created an inquiry last week and hasn't heard anything yet.

For anyone who's following this, I don't think your take-away should be that creating an inquiry will move things along at such an early stage (3 months after biometrics). Just my opinion.

Just let you know.....

I made an inquiry that should be answered by 05/18.

However, I didn't receive any mail or e-mail, and my online status is still the same.

:crying:

Well, at least, I have my inquiry ID to make an infopass......

My case: waiting for a Oath Letter.

[witamar 4]

Question to both, When you will be able to create an inquiry, my applications filled was 1/22, so far no update yet. When I tried to create an inquiry, the system stopped and it said still under processing time (My local office time says for 5 months). can you please give me your experience.

thanks

Thanks for the reply. What do you mean that your inquiry didn't work out, are you saying your case is still pending.

BTW, do you know how to find out the status of the SR.

[newwonder 1]

Did they change your inquiry's status?

Or, is it still the same: "[...] is currently not assigned for processing."?

Do you have the link to check the status of SR, fyi, my SR status with SR with bunch of no and end with NEW.

The system won't let you create a case inquiry if your case is still within normal processing times... someone said that this is 6 months, but I know that for another Houston applicant it was 8 months before he could create a case inquiry. So what we actually did was use a different type of inquiry; when you go to the case status page, you'll see that you can create an inquiry for notifications or updates that were not received. That's what I did because I hadn't heard anything in 3.5 months after biometrics. 3 other December filers did it too, but it's hard to tell if it did any good... one got placed inline almost immediately, two got placed inline within a week of the inquiry, and one a couple of weeks later... so coincidence or not? I'm not sure, but I'm inclined to think that it helped... not that it sped up background checks; that won't happen... but rather that the background checks must have been completed and the inquiry just got USCIS to update our statuses.

[JimmyHou 611]

Updating daqh's In Line date: USCIS changed my In Line date from 1/29 to 3/14. I have no idea why the date had been changed. I haven't received any text/email about this update.

I'm not sure if I've ever seen an inline date change before... has anyone else?

I have seen cases where people are placed inline, get an interview notice, and then show up to the interview and are told that the background check isn't done. Some of these people are sent home and some are interviewed but not approved until the check is complete.

That tells me that there are sometimes mistakes where people are placed inline before they should be. That may have happened to you; you were placed inline shortly after biometrics, but your background check wasn't done. When your check was completed, they went in to place you inline and realized that you were already inline and so the date was updated.

That's just a guess, but that's the only thing I can think of. If this is what happened, then it's certainly better than making it all the way to the interview before you find out there's an issue.

So you can now assume that your background check is done and that you're just waiting for an interview... so the question is, why is it taking so long for an interview? I'd give them a call to see if they'll tell you anything, but if you live close to a field office, you could also make an infopass appointment. You are coming up on the 6 month mark after applying, so why don't you also see if the system will let you create an online Service Request or Case Inquiry about your case. You may want to wait until 6 months from your NOA date... I'm not sure when they start counting.

Finally, thanks for coming back to update us... hopefully you'll get some good news soon.

Look for St. Louis applicants in the tables linked below... your office doesn't seem to be very quick when it comes to scheduling interviews.

Adding the formatting for the underlined dates back in... the underlines all disappeared with a May 12th update that one of us made and I didn't notice until today!

Adding the formatting for the underlined dates back in... the underlines all disappeared with a May 12th update that one of us made and I didn't notice until today!

Sorry, it was me... Not sure what happened, I only removed "quote" marks and added my dates (((

The formatting is finicky... I've messed it up before... it was an easy fix.

Under a week for groovy's interview...

Under 2 weeks for stavroula's...

Under 3 weeks for mine...

Under 4 weeks for yours...

This is getting exciting.
