@roya roya what’s you PD?

@Renata Mendonca 17th march 2023

@roya roya my PD is similar to you, 10th March 2023. Do you know how many times your case was transferred? My one was in Phoenix and Dallas (both are non local for me) and came back NBC.

@Mohammad Ebi I had an interview in August, and my case trasferred to NBC at the middle of September,

My PD 13 March 2023. no updates at all since biometrics on September 2024. I’ve been told too many times my case transferred to Washington FO. I’m seeing a lot of people with PDs on March 2023 in the same situation. I’m wondering what is going on?

they are denying everything! I got denied today 😪

@Carlos Reyes @roya roya sorry for that. what was your PDs?

@Carlos Reyes I485 or I140?

I140

@Carlos Reyes what's your profile. Please, telll us more

Master, more than 7 years of experience (really good and relevant experience), more than 12 recommendation letter, 2 publications

but it is not about the profile it’s about the current government, they are denying everything!

@Mohammad Ebi @Younes B @Elie Rad guys, did you get any update?

@roya roya unfortunately nothing. have you?

@roya roya nothing

@roya roya I got an update just an hour ago. They will schedule an interview.

@Younes @Elie Rad B nothing

@Mohammad Ebi that 's good to hear, Good luck Mohammad!

@roya roya Many tnx. Hopefully you get an update soon as well!

good luck @Mohammad Ebi

@Elie Rad Many tnx!

my case also transferred from FO To NBC IN September , case updated to VISA BULLETIN IS NOT CURRENT OR CASS HELD IN ABEYANCE no updates it has been since I have filed the I-485 petition

@Kevin 123 Are you able to send a service request in USCIS website?

@Mohammad Ebi no

@Kevin 123 my case got stuck in FO then my lawyer decided to send a service request. Then after one month It went another FO. I believe service request can help when the case gets stuck.

@mohammad oh yea , I created service request for EAD asked me to wait for 60 days Emma told me that case assigned to officer , but no action was taken exactly after 60 days file transfered to Nebraska

Hello all, my interview has been scheduled for 10th December.

@kevin 123 congrats Kevin for your approval. @Elie Rad My case is in pause. The last update that I got from Emma is Pending Adjudication.

congratulations @kevin 123! I hope we are next @Mohammad Ebi

@Elie Rad Yes hopefully our turns come soon.

@Mohammad Ebi Any updates on your end so far? have you get approval?

@Younes B My case is in pause. As I am in the list of 19 countries.

@Mohammad Ebi I’m so sorry about that. I’m from the 75 countries, you think that would impact as well? May Allah make it easy for us in this blessed month

@Younes B if you are not in the list of 19 countries, you won't be affected. I am sorry that you are still waiting for your case. Hopefully we move from this step.

@Mohammad Ebi I’m not from the 19 countries. but it’s been now 123 days since my status was changed to “case ready to be scheduled for interview “. I reached out to congressman and to senator for help and the response was it’s in queue to be scheduled for interview in the Washington field office which is not a local office for me. I asked my lawyer to send a service request since early this month but we didn’t receive any reply yet. it’s annoying couldn’t get patient

@Mohammad Ebi they just updated my status to case is scheduled for an interview, I know you went through the same could you please advise what questions they will ask and how long it will take to send me the interview date

@Younes B mine in a non local office too!! and my case was updated to scheduled for interview, any updates?

@Elie Rad nothing on my end. Still waiting. what is your Non local field office and your filing date? I have an interview briefing appointment with my lawyer as soon as I get an update I can share that with you once I get something. keep me posted please!

@Younes B non local office is Minneapolis-saint Pauil FO. FD oct 2024

@Elie Rad As for March 3, 2026 my congressman got a response from the USCIS saying that my case is in the Washington FO awaiting for a spot and seems that office is the slowest ever and most busiest one. I’ve been told through live agent lately that the case was transferred there since March 15, 2025

@Elie Rad great move for your case. Unfortunately as I am from that 19 countries, my interview was canceled and my case is in pause. Is there any restriction similar to my case for you? I mean are you from that 19 countries?

@Mohammad Ebi No but I am from the 75 countries.

@Elie Rad That would be great then. Based on my friends' experiences the interview is straightforward and mainly the officer will review the questions of the I 485 form that we already answered.

@Mohammad Ebi I am really tired of waiting 😔 my lawyer said this will take 1-4 months on average. based on your friend experience, do you know when they will send me the interview date and when should I expect the interview

@Elie Rad For my case when I got the update of "your case is ready for an interview ", two weeks later my interview scheduled (for 40 days later)

@Mohammad Ebi @Elie Rad for my case it’s been 144 days since my case updated to ready to be scheduled for an interview. I don’t know what’s wrong with them

@Younes B I pray that they will end up waiving it for you and that it goes to approved directly

@Elie Rad Ameen. I hope so. Thanks so much for the kind words!

@Younes B Could you open a service request?

@Mohammad Ebi I’m not sure what is the s service request?

@Mohammad Ebi But I would say that I tried to do every single thing that could be done through my online account never being able to submit anything. I would mention that my receipt is starting with MSC, so I never received an online account code to link my case to my account. However, my lawyer is trying to submit a service request on my behalf and since I didn’t hire a lawyer from the beginning we are now trying to get her as my representative we filed for that almost 2 months ago but she still not considered as my representative. she’s been calling the USCIS almost every week but still hasn’t gotten anything

@Younes B you can submit service request by yourself, you do not need any one else, although better if a lawyer does it. As your case is in field office I belive USCIS let you submit it.

@Mohammad Ebi I don’t know how to do it. if you can tell me what to do or how to do this. I will try myself until my lawyer gets back from the USCIS and be able to do so

@Younes B https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request

@Younes B Go to the link, then select check case processing. Based on your filing date and the current location of your case (local or main center) it evaluates whether you can submit service request or not.

@Mohammad Ebi The first time I can submit an inquiry is May 10, 2026. it says I’m within normal processing time. that’s ridiculous!

@Younes B I am sorry hearing that, hopefully till that time you have an update.

@roya roya @Elie Rad @Younes B Any update or progress in your cases?

@Mohammad Ebi no, No, unfortunately my case is on hold due to my nationality. you?

@roya roya mine one is in hold with the same reason

@Mohammad Ebi so sorry Mohammad! have you joined any lawsuits yet?

@roya roya not yet

@Mohammad Ebi are u iranian as well?

@roya roya yes

@Mohammad Ebi They sent me the interview notice after 10 days from the scheduled for interview notice. the interview was after a month from that notice. The interview was questions from the form (yes/no). the officer was very nice and I just got my green card today. praying that you all will get it soooon.

@Elie Rad ohhh great news! congratulations! one question your nationality is not any from 39 or 75 countries list?

I am from the 75 countries

Any update @Younes B @roya roya?

@Mohammad Ebi no Mohammad you?

@roya roya my case transferred from my local field office to Texas field office. My case was there 9 months ago.

@Mohammad Ebi hope our cases be approved soon! che gonahi kardim be khoda maha!?

@roya roya yes hopefully we get the approval soon.

@Mohammad Ebi any news Mohammad?

@roya roya unfortunately no news from my side. My case is still in my local field. What about you?

No, The only thing I found out is that my case was transferred from NBC to a non-local field office in Florida about a month ago. I had my interview last August!

@roya roya have you tried service request? My case was very weird this is the whole track for me. NBC(7 months) + Phenix (5.5 months) + Dallas (1 months) + NBC(2 months) + Baltimore (6 months) + Dallas (1 month) + now it is in Baltimore from 1 month ago.

@Mohammad Ebi It says my case is within the normal processing time, so I can’t submit a service request. Have you been able to? I’ve asked my congressman and senators to submit inquiries on my behalf several times, but every time I just received template responses.

@roya roya I requested congressman to submit inquiry but nothing happened yet. It is frustrating.

@Younes B any news from scheduling your interview? I remember you were waiting for a long time for the interview.

@roya roya any news Roya?
