D&T and TomTom,

Make that call to NVC!

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

No more touches since 5/22/2007, and NVC doesn't seem to know our CIS case number yet, at least that's what their computers told me on the phone :(

Have you tried calling and doing the RFE trick? Call 1-800-375-5283 early enough in the day and they will transfer you to someone at CSC rather than the USCIS national customer service line (who are way out of the loop). Judging from trends, I bet your first touch on the 21st was an approval, or at least the second, they just never bothered updating your status. That's what happened to me.

Well, I called USCIS. The guy was very nice, but of course - as soon as I asked for status I got the standard line. Ahh well. Also called NVC - they don't have it yet.

Hi guys. Well, I called USCIS AGAIN, and still nothing. They have had our RFE now for two weeks, and still don't even have record of it. So, I hopped my little butt in gear and emailed one of my local representatives and Senator Boxer as well. Hopefully will hear back from them and maybe get some help. Will let you all know what happens. Jen

Thanks hmm, Sarah, Neal and Cari, and Dan and Tiff. Like I said, I will let you know what happens with these responses. On a brighter note, I got my birthday package from Barney today...the best presents ever, so thoughtful. Get this, one of them was a star that Barney had named for me, "Princess Jenifer". I teared up on that one. I got lovely cards and other great gifts...made my day!!!
