美國移民局線上狀況解讀 - 移民

在移民網站上看到的老文章,雖然有趣卻也說明了一些移民者等待的無奈

Ok here is a summary of USCIS messages and what they mean:

1. On XXXXX, 2005, we mailed a notice requesting additional evidence or
information in this case:

It means a RFI or a RFE was sent to you.

1a. On xxxxxx, 2005, we received the response to our request for evidence. It
is taking between 10-12 years to process your case so just chill.


This is a generic message. DO NOT PANIC and say what the hell to the dates as
they are written. Usually these dates don't mean anything.

2. Cannot Check Status of your Case:

It means that the officer has locked your case file to be updated with an
approval most likely. Usually once the officer has approved your case, he
lets go of the record and the CRIS computer updates the message in the
database.

3. Your application is approved. If 14 days have passed and you have not
received your approval notice, panic and call the dorks at the 1-800 number
who may tell you to wait 2-3 years and call back..

It means the officer has approved your case but still hasn't ordered your new
card yet. Once your card is ordered to be issued, you will get another mail
such as the one in #4 below.

3a. On XXXXX, 2005, after approving your application, we ordered you a new
card. Your card will be mailed to you as soon as it is ready.

It means that the officer has approved your case and has placed an order of
the new card(with fries) to the card issuing division. Usually this happens
if the officer is awesome and has approved your case and didn't stop to get
his lunch and then ordered your card. Usually card id ordered if the officer
determines that your BIO is complete...It is not automatic

4. On XXXXXX, 2005, the card order was completed and we mailed the
applicant's new card directly to him or her.

The card was ordered and mailed to you. The case is closed, have fun...Au
Revoir as they say in french.

5. Your application is approved however you may need to schedule BIOMETRICS
appointment.

You are approved but somoene somewhere messed up and forgot that you need BIO
to go on your card. So the officer approved your case and said ok let me
order his new card but couldnt find your BIO so he can't go back and
dis-approve your case so this message is generated.

You can take an infopass appointment or a BIO is sent out to you. If a BIO
appt is not sent out, you can go to your local office who will issue you a
temp card and send you to the Application Service Center(ASC) of your area to
get your BIO done. After BIo is done, #4 is the message you will get.

6. Some people such as me don't get an approval message but get a "your card
was ordered and mailed to you." This happens when the officer approves your
case, and forwards it to CRIS(the big brother) to update the USCIS
website...However the officer then goes and orders you a new card(same day)
and sends that message to CRIS to update on the case status site...So as by
default, the newer update to your file is sent to CRIS and you never get the
approval message.

7. You never get an approval letter but get a card.

See #6 above. When CRIS is updated, the updated message and any
outputs(approval letters, RFI, RFE, etc) are sent to the applicant so if CRIS
is not updated with an approval message(even though your case is approved),
you will never get an approval message.

There are 2 computers that USCIS works with, CRIS & the main application
computer(USCIS-CSO). Usually CSO has all your history whereas CRIS has only
the last update to your case and email generation enabled.
