hi everyone, my wife made a petition I-130 for me, finally after 11 months we r approved, today we receved a letter from uscis, the letter says:the above petition has been approved. The petition indicates that the person for whom you are petitioning is in the United States and will apply for adjustment of status. He or she should contact the local uscis office to obtain fo I-485, application for permanent residency. A copy of this notice should be submitted with the application. If the person for whom you are petitioning decides to apply for a visa outside of the United States based in this petition, the petitioner should flirt for I-824, application for action on an approved application or petition, to request that we send the petition to the department of state national visa center. The NVC processes all approved immigrant petitions that require consular action, the NVC also determines which consular post is the appropriate consulate to complete visa processing. It will then forward the approved petition to that consulate.we have hired a lawyer to make our petition, but we have fired him few days ago, I m not in usa, I m in albania, my wife called uscis and spoke with a level 2 officer, she explained evrth to him, and he said don't rush to fill I-829 because maybe it's uscis mistake not the lawyer mistake.mistake.he suggest her to do a service request and he said we will get an answer in 2 weeks by mail.plz help me, has anyone had this type of experience? Than you

hi

someone made a mistake, does your wife have a copy of the i130 sent? check question 22, the question that asks where will you have the interview

if there was a mistake and the i130 is never sent to NVC, then your wife will have to send the i824 to transfer the approved 130 to be sent to NVC

i had this same problem with my approval notice.

remedies (pick 1 or more):

1. have the petitioner contact USCIS via telephone, get an ISO, a Tier 2 human, and have the ISO correct it. Sometimes this is not a plausible solution, based on timing and where the casefile is, so

2. have the petitioner engage with a human in a Congressman's office (She has 3 congressmen available to her, 2 Senators and 1 Representative) . It needs to be a constituent liason that fills the desk of 'Immigration Liason Staffer'. The forms she needs are available online, and is best to

....a. call around first, talk with humans then

....b. print the form, sign the form, scan the form, fax the form out, email the form out with c.

....c. write up a longish email to the ILS human, include the scanned signed form as a file attachment, then email it all out to the ILS human.

....d. follow up the next day via telephone with the ILS human, asking them to GO FAST as USCIS still has the casefile in the A-File scanning section of the building and it must be rehomed to NVC shipping dock immediately.

Go Get Em, and Good Luck !

stick /focus on the Immigration Liason Staffer at the Congressman's office, petitioner using a telephone, having live conversation with that human.

The ILS Human can 'tell' the Congressional Liason Human at TSC that the approved I-130 petition must go to NVC for further Consular Processing, and the ILS human can tell the Congressional Liason Human at TSC that USCIS made a huge mistake, thinking the beneficiary was in the USA and was to go through an adjustment of status.

If'n the USCitizen Petitioner can actually have this conversation today, it's possible the casefile will get retagged by Monday, with another 3 weeks delay before it leaves the shipping dock to get to NVC.

Go Get Em, and Good Luck !

i never mentioned to make a service request with an iso.

instead, the one pointed thing you were to determine with the iso was the disposition/routing of the approved casefile.

a service request never accomplishes that - instead, the iso was to actually look at the electronic record of the casefile, read the notes stored there, and determine the casefile movement based on what he/she read.

so, that phone call into an ISO, alas, was a waste of time for the uscitizen petitioner.

Sorry.

-----

meanwhile back at the ILS human - the uscitizen petitioner really needs to use a telephone with the ILS human, insisting on the points that I wrote several weeks ago. Is there some communication problem between you and the USCitizen Petitioner? I ask, because the things you have written about since I wrote this stuff to you, is mind-boggling, indicative (at least to me) that the messages I wrote here fell on the floor, never communicated to the USCitizen Petitioner. If I'm wrong about it, so be it. But that's the way it's reading, at least to me.

--

again, sorry.

use a telephone with the ILS human. it's summertime, find out if that staff person is on vacation or no. if on vacation, learn who is handling the liason to immigration matters, and talk with that person via telephone.

i'm sorry, in matters like this, timing is really important, and the congressman's office has to fully understand the problem in order to take the right action.

Hi darnall, please forgive me for my ignorance, what is ils human? U mean a level 2 officer? My wife called them again, she spoke with a level 2 officer, he said all u can do is open a service request,and wait 15 to 30 days,my wife told to the officer that this is the third service request that I open, the last time that I called u another tie2 officer told me that we will send to u an answer by email, but nothing happened. The tie2 officer told to my wife today that we never reply to a service request in 5 days.my wife spoke with the congress officer today again, he said I have contacted them 1 month ago but nothing from them, he said I have to give them 2 more months time.the reason why my wife contacted again the tie 2 officer is becouse one of her friends told her that has resolved this problem by service request.wrequest.we don't know what to believe,another person said that u have to start the process all over again.this congress officer isn't helpful at all

ILS = immigration liaison staffer - that is the individual who handles immigration matters for either the Representative or Senator.

If you haven't gotten anywhere with one particular staffer, try another. Everyone will have one Representative and two Senators.
