USCIS Online Access Code
Good morning colleagues, I need help: I’m trying to set up my USCIS online account so that I can add my paper-filed I-140 petition to the account.
But the system tells me I need a uscis online access code - which I don’t have. Reading online, I understand uscis send this access code on a Form I-797C( Notice of Action), after receiving the paper-filed application for processing.
However the only document I received from USCIS is a Form I-797C (Receipt Notice). There’s no online access code on this form.
How do I get the online access code? Pls help.
Something is wrong…
I applied on January 2024 and received a Request for Evidence (RFE) with only one page. It simply requested my bachelor’s degree without specifying any particular requirements or criteria neither prongs.
I responded by stating that I was enrolled in an MBA (Master of Business Administration), which is a master’s degree. I was surprised that the agent had asked for my bachelor’s degree when I was actively pursuing a master’s degree.
I submitted my response in October 2024, but it has been a year since then, and I have not received any response. This situation has been causing me significant stress.
EB-2 NIW I-485 pending since 11/25/2022 (Pittsburgh FO). 06/10/2025: “security checks pending”. ONPT SRs + Emma/Tier-2 + senator/ombudsman done. Any proven way to move background checks?
My I-485 (EB-2 NIW) has been stuck since 11/25/2022. Interview waived; case at Pittsburgh Field Office; since 06/10/2025 status says security checks pending.
Tried: multiple Outside Normal Processing Time SRs, Emma/Tier-2, congressional inquiry, CIS Ombudsman (closed), biometrics (twice), I-693 submitted, and expedites for I-131 (need multiple-entry AP) and I-765 (financial loss) with evidence uploaded.
If you had similar delays, what actually moved your background checks? Did a congressional escalation / refresh-rerun request / InfoPass help? Any tips appreciated.

long fine and nothing yet
I submitted and inquiry on July 30 most likely I should get a response before 24 of this month uscis said “From the outside normal processing times request
I am reviewing it appears an agent at the office was assigned the request on 08/28/2025, and they should be in contact with you before the 28th of this month.”
