Dear all, I just called VSC and found out that my case was on 'visa availability' hold. However, even I am from a retro-country, my husband (the primary applicant) is not. To our understanding, the derivative's case should be under the primary applicant's visa category, which is 'world-wide'...

Thanks!

I applied AP a month ago, but need to take an emergency trip abroad. There is an LUD for my AP today. The question is: if my AP is approved during my absence, can I ask somebody to mail it to me and use it to enter the US? In other words, is AP valid for entry if it is approved when the...

I have the same experience. VSC said name check cleared in June and July. Then they said it was not cleared in Aug., Sep. and Oct. VSC people don't know what they are talking about. Can I ask you guys what number to call FBI for name check status? I heard they cancelled this service, and they...

I am in New Jersey. I just wrote a letter to my local congressman's office and asked for help. Good luck.

I recently had an LUD on my 485 case. I have resorted help from the local congressman's office. Just wondering if the LUD was related to their inquiries to VSC? thanks.

Did you record your LUDs?

Then who should we contact? Congressman?

Did you get useful information from Newark office? I made an appointment with them for 2 weeks later. May I ask which senator did you contact? I wrote a letter to Senator Menedez last month, but haven't heard from them so far.

I have an LUD again today. I saw from this board quite a few people get LUDs 10/03 and 10/04. This could be a massive thing.

I called VSC and was told my case was pending for security checks. After two hours, I found there is an LUD. I called several times before but never got any LUD. Also, I got mixed messages from callings. Sometimes they said my background checks were cleared and my case was waiting to be assigned...

Did they tell you it is name check pending? I also called this morning, and they onlt told me I was pending for security checks, but wouldn't say if it's FBI name check. They claimed they couldn't disclose details about security checks.

I have exactly the same experience!! Called CIS in June and was told everything is fine and i should hear a decision in 30 days. No decision was made until July. Called again, was told to wait another 30 days. Then when I called in late August, they told me I am pending security check!! No...

May I ask how did you find out your name check was cleared?

It only took 1 day for the congressman to confirm you are stuck in name check? That's super fast!
