Yes, I know. But if you check the forum immigration timelines so many people who got their NOA1 after us already got NOA2. And thats what lets me worry... Thank you for trying to calm me down...

Does anybody know the email adress???

But be prepared to get a standard generic response. Until you are 30 days or more past the date they are currently processing, which is Feb 3, you will get little response from them Im afraid. Even then all one generally gets is an extension on the wait time to call again. You are only now right around the processing date of when you filed so chances are it is on someones desk to be processed.

How Do I...Know What USCIS Services Are Available to Me After I File My Application or Petition?

While your case is within the normal processing time, this basic

automated case status is all that we will provide. We will not research

your case to give you details about the status of your case.

thanx alot!!!! I figuered that it wont help so much to email them - like you said. But it is at least something we can do....I feel helpless all the time. But we will probably wait till the additional 30 days are over. do I have to start counting from NOA1 up to 120 days plus 30 days OR based on the processing times posted on their website?

Again thanks for your help!

The 120 days actually means nothing. That is just a guide as to how long your petition will take to process. The only way to get any action is to wait the 30 days past your NOA1 for the date processing on the USCIS website. So in your case you would have to wait until that date is March 3.

thank you for your help! Well, I guess it can last forever.... It is really driving me crazy. Well, right now Im doing pretty good, cause my fiance came from the States to Germany to visit me for a month... I hoped so much that it would go on during the time he is here. I just need something to hope for...

I recently drafted a letter to send to my congressman. I also dowloaded consent forms for my congressman's office to investigate my case. I do not know if either of these things will help in the slightest, but at least I felt like I was doing something. Perhaps it is something you can research and do. It can't hurt. Your case has been idle for a long time and I am sure it would be nice to at least know why.

thank you again for your help! How does this investigation work? What do we have to do exactly? I dont even know what a congressman is... My fiance is the USC and he doesnt know alot about the immigration process, pretty much only what I told him. Its pretty hard for me to figure out everything, cause Im in Germany, some phone numbers dont even work outside the US and English is not my mother language, thats a problem for me too, cause I dont understand everything correctly... I dont wanna blame him, he tries hard to set up everything for the time I will be back in the US...But at first I need this Visa!!!

A congressman is a locally elected representive that represents and votes for you in Washington D.C. You can find your (USC's) representative here http://www.house.gov/ ,most have a website you can visit. You can get an email address, phone number, and postal address. My representitive had a link for immigration issues with a form that I downloaded that allows his office to recieve information on my behalf. Its just a formality, but it would need to be done for the office to investigate.

Basically send them a letter describing your circumstance. Explain that it has been well over the originally stated time it was supposed to take for this to be done and you have heard nothing from the USCIS concerning your case since Feburary 3rd. Then attach the release form and a copy of your NOA1.

I know in for some people this tactic has helped move along their case. At the very least it would seem that someone acting with the authority of your congressman is able to get more information on your case then you would be able to do with the channels available to you.

Hi, thank you so much for your detailed information. That helps alot.... I will tell my fiance all that stuff and I hope it will all work out...I have already found the congressman for my fiances district in the US. I didnt know about this option at all.... So thanks again. I hope things will go fine for you, too. Waiting is just so frustrating...but you sure know about that. I might have some more questions after talking to my fiance...

Ok, I see the websites to go to, to look for my congressman, and the email addy for the CSC, but can someone give me advice as to what to ask once I am there and sending the email?

[Chuckles 0]

I'm not sure what your intentions are Mandi, but you shouldn't try to use your congressman until its been at least past the processing time on the USCIS website, or if your case has had something unusual happen to it. Are you asking for the future just in case? If you mail them now they will just say your application is being processed and to be patient.

I sent them a letter showing the circumstances of my petition, and what I had attempted to do to find out why it was delayed. If it becomes time for you to mail your congressman, I'd be happy to share the letter with you.

Hi Chuckles,

my fiance wants to contact his congressman as soon as he is back in the states. He has already tried to call him, but there is only an am and he cant leave his number cause he is still in Germany... My question now: Could you share your letter with me/my fiance, too? That would be really nice...

thank you,

Mimi

I contacted our congressman and I got nowhere. All they ended up doing is ultimately giving me the same information that I already had from the USCIS website, etc. I don't know that they actually have any clout in getting things to move or getting details even. Anyone know? I'm in New Hampshire.
