Congress man help
Hi guys.

First of all, is our time table so far:
Jan 6th - Married.
Jan 31 - Lawyer drops paperwork at NYC office
Mar 16 - Case Is Ready To Be Scheduled For An Interview
May 4 - EAD and AP Card mailed.

No change since, and I guess everything is normal and we just need to wait to our turn.

My question is regarding a congress man help. I read here a lot about people who involved their locale congressman, who send/talked whatever something to USCIS and it might helped them make their process go faster.

Is it a thing? Can it actually help? Does it worth it?
In case we do have the connections to our local congress man - what exactly are we looking to ask him to do for us?

Will appreciate any lead!
Thanks.

I-485 / I-130 / I-765 still pending
Hello to everyone!
I've been reading this forum for quite a while now.
And I wanted to share my situation.
Arrived here in US last Dec 21, 2016 as B1/B2 visa
Came for Christmas holidays
Planning to leave by Jan 2, 2017 but my boyfriend proposed and he asked me to stay a bit longer this time.
I flew a couple of times to see him last year (2016). Know the guy for almost 11yrs.
Married last March 03, 2017
Filed I-485, I-765, I-130 last April 24 to Chicago Lockbox
They rcvd it on April 26 2017
I rcvd receipt notice 797c notice on May 2 (MSCxxxxxxxxx)
But up until now (almost 3 months now) no news about my Biometrics.
Called and raised SR last July 12 and 18th but no news till now.
I wanna help my husband with bills.
Currently, am just volunteering in a non profit org here in Cleveland.
The USCIS agent told me that my papers are still in Benefit Center in Vermont.
It's taking too long... wait is frustrating. 90days for Biometric schedule???

Please guys, need your advice and opinion.
Thank you

Interview on July 25th
 Interview Yesterday, Got there at 820AM and waited for about 2hrs. This female accompanied by a male came to the waiting area and asked for my wife to follow her. I think either one of the officers is under review/supervision cause I noticed all the cases she had interviewed the male officer is always in front of her and she doesn't usually call out your ticket number, instead she walks in the waiting area and come get people.
I noticed every couple that was there were separated as well.
She asked my wife about my name and parents names. Asked questions about pictures we had. her school and old address. she asked her if I ever go by another name and she said No.
After she came and asked me to follow her, she asked about my name and address and asked about how my asylum cases got terminated and questions about asylum as well which threw me off because I wasn't prepared for those questions. she asked me the old address and I said about my 2 previous and I couldn't remember the 3rd one cause it was almost 5-6years but she called it out herself. At the end, she asked me I ever change my name and I say No and she asked if I have another name and I said no bt my grandpa called this name because he couldn't spell my first and just made a shortcut for it.
At the end, she was like everything looks fine and she took all my previous ead cards but hand me the current one. She said she couldn't find the original 130 approval stamped from her file but she sees in the system that it was approved. she told my wife the same thing before I walked in. I handed her more documents proofs and she said she doesn't need all that because the 130 is already approved but she just can't the Original stamped from the office and that she'll request it from the officer who interviewed us on the 130 and request my asylum file as well. I have a feeling she couldn't make her decision because of the other male officer who was supervision/shadowing her.
I was so optimist that we would get approved on the spot because of people reviews on here but unfortunately, that wasn't the case. I guess now I have to wait and see what happens.
Should I be worried at all? and when would I be able to hear back from her?

Case processed based on priority date or receipt date
Hi all,

EB1 for India is not current since June 2017, but we applied for I485, 795 and 131 by 31st May. Any idea, will our case be processed now or we have to wait till the status become current, because our receipt date shows 8th June.

Please let us know, if anybody is in same situation; its been 57 days and we haven't received any biometrics call yet. Seriously worried!! :(

thanks in advance
