My application was recieved november 26, 2012 biometrics taken on december 31, 2012 and its now june 4,2013 and still on initial review. I tried putting in a service request i dont know how much that will help but havnt heard anything back yet but still within the 15 day limit they tell you of getting a response on that. And contacted my local congressman and its only been a couple of days but id like to know what anybody else has accomplished by taking the same steps as me. Thank you
