Congressman
Good morning, VAWA family.
Has anyone received a response like this from USCIS through their congressional office and still had their case approved? If so, would you mind sharing your experience? Thank you in advance.
USCIS is conducting further review of your case. We cannot provide a timeframe for completion of this additional review. However, once this additional review has been completed, USCIS will take adjudicative action on your case."
Should I be worried? What type of review could this be

H-1B Petition Receipt Shows July 1 Received Date – Any Issues?
Hello everyone,
My employer's LCA was certified on June 30 at around 11:30 PM CST, and they attempted to file my H-1B cap petition immediately. However, due to the scheduled USCIS online filing system maintenance from 7:00 PM to 11:59 PM EST that night, they were unable to submit the petition until the portal reopened. Although the filing would have been before July 1 in the CST time zone, it was after midnight on July 1 in the EST time zone because USCIS uses Eastern Time.
As a result, my USCIS Receipt Notice shows:
Received Date:07/01/2026
Notice Date:07/01/2026
Since USCIS accepted the filing and issued a receipt number, does this mean my petition has been accepted for processing?
Has anyone else had a July 1 received date because of the USCIS system maintenance? If so, did it cause any issues?
If there were a filing date issue, would USCIS reject the petition immediately, or could it still be rejected later during processing?
Thanks in advance for any insights!
Going through I-485 adjustment? This kept me sane during the wait.
The I-485 wait is brutal because so much is invisible. You are waiting on biometrics, then the EAD combo card, then maybe an interview, and USCIS just says "Case Was Received" the whole time. I ended up leaning on MyCasesHub for a few things.
It pulls my status live, so when my biometrics notice and later my card production actually posted, I knew right away instead of days later.
The part that helped most was seeing how my case compared to other I-485 filers at the same field office who filed around the same time. That is what finally told me whether I was on a normal track or genuinely stuck.
It also gave me a data based estimate of my likely decision window from real historical outcomes, which beat refreshing the visa bulletin and guessing.

finally aproved
My green card was approved today, five and a half years after I started the process.
I changed sponsors two and a half years ago, but the Supplement J was not submitted.
The medical exam (RFE) was delivered on June 22nd, but I never received a delivery confirmation update.
no interview 🙌
