Someone was told that Received at Local Office simply means that your records were removed from long storage and delivered to your Case Officer for action. The VSC is your local office. So, your records were removed from storage, delivered to your Case Officer, who the generated the RFE. (just one of many possible explanations). Good luck.
We received an approval notice in the mail today! The online status changed to the note about the local office receiving the case on 2/27/18. No other changes after that, but physical approval letter is dated 3/15/18. VSC filer at WAS field office area. No interview required. Now for the N400 app next month. 😳
Congratulations, JeanneSs! We have a 04/21/17 NOA date. We are so happy that you got approved. We went back and read all of your recent posts to see your timeline since your transfer to the local office. We are really excited and a bit relieved after waiting so many months. Best of fortune to everyone here.
Omg you can say that again but trust me we’ll be done with Uscis very soon. They take delight in making us go crazy but soon and very soon we’re going to see lots of approvals 🤞
That's great! Good for you. I just checked mine and it still says " your case was received last year.." But to be fair, I filed in June...I just like this thread better : )
So I just got off the phone with L2 officer and she confirmed cases are being transferred to local offices due to backlog. She also congratulated me and said my case has been approved today...NOA date 04/05/17
Any California applicants got approved from Jan/Feb/March atleast? I see Vermont filers of March 2017 getting their approvals. Thanks you guys. Stay strong everyone! We are all in this together.
Great to see a few more approvals. I have had my Green card in hand for over a week now (been too busy to reply :P) but it took 14 days exactly from approval to green card in hand for me
