Does anyone know what this means?

 

Haven't received an update since November.

 

This is called a soft LUD (last update). Most likely your case was moved to a local office on that date. Sometimes my.uscis.gov has that detail for your case.

Howdy, joining this party, my wife and I submitted her i751 at the end of December, was received 2 January at SRC and biometrics done 13 February. On 12 May according to my uscis her case was transferred to our local office, which is San Antonio, Texas. Hoping she will see an approval in a month or two.

What is your receipt number without the last three digits? Thanks!

January 2020 cases starting with SRC had a few approvals. For example,

Last Tools outage was on May 7th and we got massive fingerprint update.

Next tools outage is tonight. I wonder if there will be another massive update.

I don't know if this is a big deal but the case just got a soft update. SRC service center no notice of transfers.

Did you get soft update on egov.uscis.gov? Did you check my.uscis.gov? If you read past threads (or iShirley's posts above) then it seems, soft update on egov site shows as case transferred to local office on my.uscis.gov site.

Can someone tell me what is the meaning of MSC with numbers on it. 

The firs t three letters refers to the service center

MSC - refers to national benefits center or NBC in Missouri

WAC - refers to California Service Center

that's interesting, I didn't find any I-751 case through MSC19900-19902

maybe I need to go through again

thanks for the information

When they say California 19902 do they mean WAC19902? that is very different than MSC19902.

Hi all,

 

Just got a text/email that one of my kiddo's ROC was approved and the card was issued for production. The other one had a soft update on May 06 but no approval yet, even though her number is immediately right after the other. Hoping for another update for her soon. Just as a reminder, they're both SRC receipts, filed on September 06, Biometrics done on November 14.

Awesome. Congrats! Could you please share receipt number without the last three digits

thanks!

SRC2090093400 got approved today. Filed Dec 12th 2019. Nice! So quick!

Not sure, but maybe because they have to row back on in-person appointments they are just using what we have on file. This always seemed weird to me because fingerprints don’t change lol. So why send another $85 for more?

 

Ah well. Progress is progress I guess!

 

does anyone else receive estimates from Visajourney as to when they think the case will be resolved? My estimates started off as June 2021. My most recent one is February 14th. I know they are just estimates but do you receive them and does anyone know how accurate they end up being? Just curious really. 

They are not accurate at all.

Please read up all other threads. Cases from May 2019 to December 2019 all are randomly getting approved.

I had my status change online to say “case was updated to show fingerprints were taken”. My case number starts YSC. NOA was dated March 10th. One small step for man.... 🙂 

Congratulations! We are in the same boat now.

Filed with Texas Service Center... with receipt number SRC1990368***

Here is my timeline:

May 7th, 2019 - Sent i-751 via FedEx overnight

May 16th, 2019 - Received NOA with RECEIVED DATE showing as 05/08/2019 and NOTICE DATE showing as 05/13/2019

Sept 27th, 2019 - Received Letter dated 09/20/2019 that biometrics will be waived

11/16/2019 - Received Biometrics Appointment Letter with NOTICE DATE 11/08/2019 scheduled for 11/29/2019

11/30/2019 - Online update stating fingerprints reviewed complete and later updating to fingerprints have been applied to your case

05/06/2020 - Received an email stating action had been taken on my case. On egov.uscis.gov, last updated date changed to 05/06/2020 but description still stated as of Nov 29th 2019, fingerprints relating to your case has been applied but on the my.uscis.gov site, it says case was received at your local office.

Attached herein is a screenshot of my case history on the my.uscis.gov website. 

Thank you @iShirley

What is you local office?

They said they checked the new website and it just said case was received. as you can see it says "MYUSCIS" and also someone asked him the same question, see july 2019 thread

In their case, it seems my.uscis.gov never worked so it is hard to tell.

So today I got this update showing that case updates showing that fingerprint was taken even though I didn’t get letter for my biometric. Is this okay or should I call USCIS?

Yes, very common update. Read up other threads.

Someone from July 13 2019 got approved and their case was not transffered. Do you think is safe to say they are looking at July 2019 for the people that were not transffered?

 

 

 

 

Hello everyone! Congratulations to all the approvals!!!

I just checked my case online and I have gotten approved myself! 

Here it's my timeline: 

Date Filed 2019/07/13

NOA           2019/07/22

BIO APPT. 2019/11/22

Aproved    2020/05/12

I had to check on "the old site", because MyUSCIS never really updated. For me it got stuck with "We have received your case, you don't have to do anything..."

Also the "old site" got stuck for ever in "As September 14th, fingerprints has shown to be taken" It did not even updated for when I got my fingerprints' appointment in November.

For all of those still waiting, I wish you all luck, and I hope ya'll get approved soon. I know how difficult and stressful this road is but is totally worth it!

P.S My receipt number was a Texas Center  SRC1990, please feel free to ask if you have any question, thank you.

Depends on what they mean by not transferred. The transfer does not show up on egov.uscis.gov website as a status. It shows up on my.uscis.gov website if the case is getting properly updated. 

 If it is negative for both, then they are not transferred.

In their case, it seems my.uscis.gov never worked so it is hard to tell.

Im impressed. So are you saying all the people randomly approved from september/october/december, they were transffered to local officies?

 

Shouldn't this be good for people who did not get transferred (like me) because it should lower the case load for the office that holds my case, as they have shipped some off. So Im starting to get confused if are actually around may or june or july (for the people that were not transffered)

Yes, it should be good.

I have an Android phone so it looks like I can't get the case tracker app everyone is talking about.  I'm also EAC and have been manually checking a few case numbers near mine, but haven't seen any movement on I-751 cases that I can find.

 

My range is EAC19901462xx

Check out "Status tracker for USCIS Case" You can check 100 cases at a time. Not great but better than checking individual case at a time.

Seems that the Texas Service Center has ignored their backlog and skipped on to approving July and September 2019 cases. USCIS is maddening.

That is not true. Most of April 2019 and May 2019 cases are being approved as before. The July-September 2019 cases getting approvals are ones transferred to local offices. As local offices cannot conduct interviews, they have lots of time on their hands and are helping out texas service center with their case load.

Please read the thread below and other months cases.

This seems to make sense. My case (waiver) was not transferred and I was eying what month the cases were at and they had just started may about two weeks ago when all the free for all frenzy started to happen with spetember, october and even december cases. 

 

If your file got transffered to the local office after May 2020, what does that mean...? mine didnt get transffered, is that bad?

 

Also- how did you get this data? 400k cases, 4.5% ROC?

It is not good or bad. Just a different queue. Cases will get processed either way.

May 2019 filed cases are somewhere around SRC1990356xxx and beyond (roughly) and this series ends at the end of fiscal year around end of of September 2019 with series SRC19900568xxx (that is roughly 212,000 cases in total, out of which about 4.5% cases are I-751 on average. Lookup each batch of 1000 cases and it may have anywhere from 20 to 75 cases in it, but on average about 40 to 50 cases.)

October 2019 series begins new fiscal year and cases start at SRC209000xxx and around mid-March (when USCIS offices closed) case numbers are SRC2090220xxx. So that is 220,000 cases

212000+ 220000 = 432,000 cases

432,000*4.5% = 19,440 cases for I-751 (just for SRC cases, others not included)

Sometime last year cases were transferred to Potomac Service Center  and other locations in a big batch. Also a few cases get transferred to "new office that has jurisdiction" as soon as they are filed (don't know why, perhaps for interview, address change, randomness).

So that leaves roughly about 15,000 cases "floating" in Texas Service Center pile. Sometime around April 20th 2020 and after, they started moving cases filed July 2019 and beyond to local offices which saw immediate approvals in days. Hence the random approvals across July, August, September, October, November, December 2019 etc.

Actually if just 10 people volunteer to build a spreadsheet it would help immensely to find out what is happening. The case-wise data is public as a Case status and there is the case tracker app to lookup 500 cases at once and filter to I-751 cases. We do not need exact numbers, just a trend. It will help ALL the people waiting and give a better idea.

A sample of spreadsheet  below. Left side SRC2090 - this first seven characters of the receipt number are common for cases filed October 2019 and after. Next three digits are listed in a column. And on the top you can the last three digits listed in 100 case interval.

So SRC2090350900 onwards there are 20 cases of  I-751 till SRC2090351000.

Checking out AoS forums and AoS timelines, no interviews are being scheduled so far. Typically they are scheduled 5 weeks in advance. Each office will have to establish a procedure for safe interview and get it approved. That will take time. I would be surprised if any get scheduled till mid-July. They will prioritize humanitarian cases and notice-to-appear type cases that require in-person appearance. Run of the mill AoS and Naturalization cases they are not going to bother with for now. They took the money, now couldn't care less if takes 2 or 3 years to process them - I am kidding.

My experience with interview was that there was a holding pen where all of us waited in a crowded area and they called out names and took us to a tiny office for interview. That all will have to change.

If they are smart they ought to develop a video room where you go and the officer watches you via video from another room and interviews you. Completely contactless. That ensures people do the naturalization test without cheating etc.
