9-20-06: Cleared FP Sent Back From FBI to USCIS
How do you know about FP clearance from FBI?
I have had my FP done in Hartford on Sep 5th, but still no updates on the website or IL from the DO. Just wondering should I make an INFOPASS appointment.
Thanks.
Ladybuggy said:Sorry, you just have to wait but if you haven't gotten an IL you are still stuck in the Name Check more then likely because that is what they started doing. If you are not cleared you won't get an IL.

Just for reference my local field office is the St. Paul, MN one... not sure if procedures differ between offices.

You are lucky to have had your interview, new regulation stipulates that an interview letter will NOT be issued until the name check has been cleared. Since it has been more than 120 days since you took your interview, you can sue and file a WOM.
Basically, USCIS placed these new rules to shift the complete accountability and responsibility of one's processing time from them to the FBI.
pg8104 said:EO thanks for the response, I learned about the new rules after I posted that... sorry
Anyways, doesn't it cost money to sue/file a WOM? How successful is this? Thanks for the info!
