Update: In my RFE, they asked for a PP size of my picture and marriage certificate.  While i have a paper from court stating that we are husband and wife, however it does not have any registration number though it was registered into the court under District Judge. It looks like the registration number is the key point here. I am asking my lawyer if he can get the  marriage certificate with registration number on the basis of the paper we have from court, unless i may have to fly.

 

 

oh i see.... thats a tricky one. hope u get it resolved soon keep fighting this is last step

How do I make sure? I thought when I Called then I’d get something in the mail with a new file number. As California doesn’t process spouse of us citizen , I’m still a WAC

login to the old USCIS case status and see below detailed info when was your ticket completed. They should have provided you a ticket number for upgrade

Put in another request for case outside of normal processing time.

 

This time got an email next day with emphasis on within 5 months. FML.

i guess it has to sit for 5 months.. but some positive news i have been reading they are transferring workload for i130 to other centers now. Feb 2018 f2a are starting to get approvals at CSC

so hopefully things are moving

Also watching approval for @J()hn next month 8/27 he will be 5 months

I wish I could say. the network was bad. All I heard was she requested my file from the CSC office and they should have it by 4th July.

 

I made some noise by faxing CSC (Thanks to @bishnup providing the number), asking help from my senators (got same response takes 5 months) and congressman (They are worked in first in first out basis from the date of upgrade, but do not have a time frame) and also Ombudsman (But Ombudsman seem to be working on cases from Oct 2018 so I doubt it is them.)

 

I'll report back if I have an update.

wow strange and no one in this group has got any update for last 3 months after upgrading

Hi, thanks so much for your response.  Glad they did the combo interview and it went good!  That is a bummer about the tax transcript I had read in another blog that sometimes they require those.  I am still waiting on my 2018 tax transcript I ordered about a week ago.  So were they going to do the oath ceremony on the same day? Hope everything comes together quickly for you, at least you are right at the finish line!

Hi! I don't know what is going on, but twice been trying answer to you and my messages disappears.. One more time :))) interview was for both I751 and N400, everything went fast and easy, and if not one thing I would wait for my oath ceremony now. But IO requested transcripts from IRS for last year to make sure taxes was paid, she didn't accepted turbotax copy and recite. Thing is earliest when transcripts will be available it's in 3-4 weeks sinse you payed your taxes, so for me it's May 12, + time for delivery, + time to send it to USCIS, and here I'm May 25 is my due to send answer to USCIS. We'll see how it's will turn out. So far I have a card is being produced status, and RFE was mailed. Good luck to you! Fortunately you have more time to get recent transcripts.

I think you can print transcript online from IRS website pretty quick... or is it some kind of a special certified transcript they ask for??
