YogiR - I sent TSC a letter exactly 3 months before my FP expires to the following address/fax number.

USCIS TSC,
P.O. Box 851488,
Mesquite, TX 75185-1488
Phone: 800-375-5283
Fax: 214-489-8021
 
SydneyRacquelle - Good question! I have no idea if it really helped.

I faxed/mailed the letter on 01/02/2004 and got RFE on 01/29/2004. But one could also argue that TSC was processing 11/2001 cases anyways and this was bound to happen.

I have no idea!! But hey, the fax was free and it costs $0.37 for the mail. What the heck ... I gave it a shot.
 
Thank you bajis

Bajis! Thank you very much for your response. Would
you mind giving template of letter you wrote?

Thanks,
Yogi

Dear Sir or Madam:

Subject: Processing our I-485 before FP expiry - reg.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

I just wanted to bring it to your attention that our Finger Printing results in lieu of our I-485 petitions are about to expire on 04/02/2004.

A speedy processing of our I-485 petitions before this date would be greatly appreciated.

Please feel free to contact us if you need any further information.

Thanking you,

If you believe in superstitions ....

.... a few weeks ago, BAJIS had provided the same sample letter.
Based on the sample letter, I was ready to send an FP expiry request to TSC. Guess what, that very evening, my status was updated to "Case Transferred" and now, a month later, am already approved. Draw your own conclusions !!

Good luck.

I think TSC is trying to finish those cases which have FP expiring to avoid 2nd FP. If your FP is going to expire, it has good chance they will work on your case soon. So, good luck!

BTW, it doesn't hurt to fax the letter to remind them.
 
Hi,

Thanks for sharing this information. Does anybody have a fax number to send the request.


Thanks in advance.

I did send the letter in last week of Feb. (My FP was 2/19/2003)

AD: 3/29/2004.

Don't know if letter triggered it, or senator's request or on its own.

No harm in trying.

Thanks bajis for the info.

did you also send a letter by mail?

i didn't send letter by mail, just faxed them on Mar 29.
 
Hi All : My FP too is going to expire in 3 months time.

Bajis : Which is better - sendinga fax by myself or ask my lawter to send a letter/ fax requesting TSC to expedite the processing?
