200 Days Before Approval
Hi guys,
Silent reader here, but posting my timeline:
Sept 4: Lawyer prepared my documents and posted to USCIS
Sept 12: Assigned NBC, notification of fees accepted.
Oct 13: Biometrics completed.
Dec 20: Raised first SR. Generic response received.
Jan 21: Raised second SR. Generic response received.
Feb 1: Spoke to Level 2 officer another SR raised. Generic response received.
Feb 20: Contacted Ombudsman and sent all relative documents. Generic response received.
Feb 22: Contacted Congresswomen, they contacted USCIS on my behalf. No response.
March 1: Contacted Ombudsman again. Again generic response received.
March 12: Contacted Congresswomen again. USCIS promised her they would look into my file and process by the end of the week. Nothing further received.
March 19: Contact Congresswomen again. They promised her again that they are really busy and my file is now with a supervisor and they will process in the next two days. Nothing further received.
March 22: Contacted Congresswomen again. They promised her it will be done by Friday. Nothing further received.
March 27: Contacted Congresswomen again. They APPROVED my application while they were on the phone to her.
From my experience, ombudsman sucks and does nothing. The only hope is your congressman/women or your Senator. They have a direct line to each USCIS office and can check up on your file instantly. Keep calling them and don't take their word on it. Members of Congress work for you, so use them as tools. If I didn't keep calling, USCIS would've just keep pushing my application down the line.
