tetesina 3 Posted February 8, 2013 Ok i just checked my status online and it says to expect a 30-45day delay between the time of petition filed and when my information is available on my case status.... What does this mean?? It's been over a month that i went to do my biometrics..... Help me please... Has anyone else seen this message while checking his/hers status before...?..

Gezinha 121 Posted February 8, 2013 Hmm...this is new. I had seen a post from someone who thought that as time went on, the processing times would get longer because so many people are applying and they are not processing stuff fast enough. Maybe this is what is happening now. Try and call them on Monday and ask. Because this does sounds like there is an overflow of applicantion where they havent even initiated your review. I could definitely be wrong, but just call and ask, you might get some better info and then you can share with us all here as well in case someone gets the same thing as you. Good luck 1 tetesina reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawf 336 Posted February 8, 2013 Can you please specify where exactly is this message showing up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tetesina 3 Posted February 8, 2013 It's right on top of the blue box of my case status... Btw I'm still on the initial review circle... Thank you Gezinha, I'll call them tomorrow Friday to see what they say.... I won't be able to sleep tonight :-( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawf 336 Posted February 8, 2013 Thank you Gezinha, I'll call them tomorrow Friday to see what they say.... I won't be able to sleep tonight :-( I'm positive it means that not all the information might show up since the system is pretty slow. There's nothing to worry about, it seems like your case still is in Initial Review. 1 tetesina reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks to this page, this forum i can see that I'm not the only one that's going through this suffering... I'm praying for all of us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruthie_sue08 31 Posted February 8, 2013 It does have to do with the amount of applications being sent in that's why there is going to be delays. Just checked mine, it said the same thing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
splif0clock 89 Posted February 8, 2013 Tetesina, It shows up in mine as well. And, I don't think it concerns applicants who can view there case status online already. I believe the message is meant for new applicants who are just submitting their applications. If you can access you case, you shouldn't worry about that message. I totally feel your pain on the wait. I can eat and sleep but I can't focus for eshi and I have never been like this in the past. It is mind blogging. All you can do is hope for the best and wait.

Momo13 17 Posted February 8, 2013 They are sending out a LOT of RFE's I got a RFE on wed. :/ So maybe this is what is slowing everything down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Momo13 17 Posted February 8, 2013 that is the notice they put up on their website. Expect a 30-45-day delay between when your application or petition is filed and when your information is available in Case Status Online, depending on the volume of applications USCIS receives.

Gezinha 121 Posted February 8, 2013 Holy shit...u r right...I just checked mine this morning and it is the same thing. They must be having a lot of people call and ask, or a problem related to that, so, that is kind of a notice to people checking their cases. Ehh, it is fine then, I guess. Just news excuses for them to be lazy lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoseG 383 Posted February 9, 2013 Come on guys, it's not that difficult. That message means that there will be a 30-45 day delay from the time the lockbox receives your application to the time you will be able to view your status online. It won't affect knowing whether you're application is approved or not since your status doesn't change during the first 30-45 days when you first file your application. This message is for those who have just recently filed their application and can't see their status online yet. 2 Fresita22 and MusicalHooligan91 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
