@IM: you can actually speak to a “live agent” or live chat thru Emma.
D
Diana DiazOct 19, 2021
I always write in emmma: “live chat” and select “technical issues” and they connect you to a representative, that most of the times helps you as if you were calling
B AkinOct 19, 2021
@Ts Wife: Thank you so much, I appreciate your kind words. I’m glad things are going well for you and your husband. The RFE was for I-693, I have not sent it and will take it with me to the interview but a glitch on lawfully says I responded, I didn’t. Wishing you the very best and I hope things move quickly for you guys. Feel free to reach out with any questions if needed.
B AkinOct 19, 2021
Just as an update guys, I chatted with a live agent via Emma today and received my interview date and time. Interview is booked for November. Looks like Santa is coming early for me ☺️

H KOct 19, 2021
congratulations..how to chat with Emma about case?? can you please tell?
B AkinOct 19, 2021
@HK: https://ceciva.uscis.gov/Alme/ Type in the box: Live agent. When she brings a list, choose case status and enter your case number when she asks. She’ll put you on live chat and you’ll be on a queue until an agent is available. Doesn’t take long. Good luck 👍🏾

H KOct 19, 2021
thank you..

hey @B Akin did the live agent give you the exact date ?
B AkinOct 19, 2021
@IM: Yes, exact date and time
H
H KOct 19, 2021
@B Akin..my question was what did you ask from the agent? cos yesterday I tried and they said there are 46 ppl before me..so I waited and sign out..bt my question was ...what did you ask agent? if he will say check the case status?? I don't know what to ask..😔
B AkinOct 19, 2021
@HK: You can ask the agent anything about your case that you don’t understand or just for case status. I usually ask about my case status or why I have never received my receipt notices. But today, I asked for the details of my interview.

H KOct 19, 2021
