Hi All. I just got a response from local congress office saying that my name check is still pending (since 07/04) and they put a manual name check request for me. They also mentioned that this request may not guranttee a faster result.

Have you guys had similar experience? What is manual check?

Thanks for any comment.

So far from what I read in this forum there are very few successful stories of expediting requests for the name check. Everyone is citing that security is the top priority and such a sensitive topic that no one can touch it. And looks like no one can do anything about it.

Actually I am wondering if this so called "manual name check request" is one form of expediting request. Any comments are welcomed.
 
My understanding is that, your automatic namecheck returned hits (meaning, somehow your name or a similar name showed up in some database they have). So your file now has to be cleared by a person (an FBI officer?) ... to clear the confusion about your case (that you did not engage in any such activity that your name showed up against).
 
Thanks Shaf fro your quick response. That's my understanding, too. Since it's been more than a year since the name check request sent from USCIS, there must have been a hit. I think a hit would result in an automatic manual check, regardless if my local congress office request it or not. So now the question is if the request from congress office makes a difference.
 
If you ever ate at TGI Fridays, your will have a hit on FBI database.

The whole name check process such frivilous, I cant explain better.
