Out of curiosity.... When requesting a service request and they say " I have placed your request" are they suppose to give you a reference or receipt number? And will it show up on the USCIS website that a service request has been placed?

What is your service request for? They are currently averaging 188 days out of vermont. Better to wait outside normal processing, 5 months + 30 days (ie 180 days) to put in the request.

Well I called them, and of course they said they are working on February 6, and the girl said the same thing they've told everyone.... but i was persistant and asked to speak to a manager.... then escalated the call from the manager higher up.... and they told me the same thing but with that lady she said she would try to put in my request. Once she got back she said she put my request in..... now since i was in a hurry to go back to work from my lunch break stupid me forgot to ask if i was going to get a confirmation number.... so now that's why i'm asking.....

So now they pull your file, hold it for 30 days, reply that you are in normal processing time (like they already said), and put you back in line 30 days later than you were before... Or do they say hey, we have service reqwuest here, better process this file, you tell everyone about how great thiis works, and they then receive 1000's of calls demanding service requests to put their file in front of the line?

You know, I really hope it's not like that... but i'm just confused as did she actually put in the request? She didn't offer to give a confirmation number and would they have record of putting in a service request? Gah!! Just so frustrated as i know many of us are. I figured i'd try to do something even if the service request really doesn't do anything at least it was worth a shot ya know what i mean :wacko:

I put in a service request and got a confirmation number and e-mail confirming same. Don't know if it changed anything as far as processing for CSC. Also e-mailed the ombudsman, got an e-mail confirming that as well. Got our NOA2 within the normal processing times so I don't know if it made a difference. Good luck.

Thank you! I called USCIS just awhile ago and i did get my confirmation number. The lady told me I should hear something by September 21st, I'm keeping my fingers crossed on this one.... I just also noticed you can put in a request on the USCIS website under e-request..... I wonder if that's the same thing? :huh: Well like i said, even if nothing gets done... at least i know i tried right? :wacko:

Hi ! my noa1 is april 12th, almost like yours. My fiancé called them 2 month ago and they told him we should hear something by September 10th (yep, yesterday) but of course nothing. I don't know if he put in a request though but don't think so, I have to ask my fiancé if he got a confirmation number...

I was also wondering what does "expedite" means in the visa process ? I heard it a lot but I am confused.

Thank you and good luck !!

PS: I forgot to answer your question: I tried to do an e-request but there is no option to put a request, only one for typographical errors!

maybe it will work tomorrow because my noa1 was april 12th and I have to wait the 12th of september, I will let you know.

I dont think they allow a service request to go in before the 5 months and 2 months ago you were at 3 months. As it is a lot of people get denied putting in that request sad but true. I would try calling them 2morro and push for a service request.

As far as a "Expedite" I believe those are for very few cases depending on your circumstance. I'd do a search on it to get a better view on that.

Good Luck on your Process!! I know we all want that NOA2 to get things moving a long. They told me i should hear something by September 21. I sure hope it's a decision if not well i'm telling myself at least i tried.
