Bobsmyth,
How did you find out that your case is being handled by Raleigh DO?
When I called USCIS, they are not able to answer my question regarding this.
Thanks,

Yes, I finally got confirmation yesterday during Infopass that my interview will be at the Raleigh DO on Aug 28th.
I had mentioned to the IO at Infopass that my case used to be with the Charlotte DO. She said that they are transferring the cases over to the Raleigh DO (for those residing in the Raleigh/Triangle area), but that sometimes they must ask (Charlotte) to do so if it wasn't done automatically. You may want to go for an Infopass and ask them them what DO is handling your case.
Till now I didn't bother to know how to do an Infopass.
How do I do an Infopass? Do I need to pay money for this?Thanks,
Newbie001.

You can make an Infopass appointment at the USCIS website :

There is no cost for this service and you can choose the date and time of the appointment.

Congratulations on the interview. I am so happy for you.
Have you received your letter ?
Still no ILs. I was told they were sent out June 6th. When my NOA was sent out back in December it took something like 10 days before I actually got it.
I've been noticing a significant slowdown with USPS deliveries. I purchased something online, and the package arrived 4 days after the latest estimated date of arrival. Another package that was sent to me on June 2nd still hasn't been delivered.
I'm sure your ILs are on the way, it's just that it appears that the postal service is taking an example from the USCIS.
My guess is that USCIS has an out of state bulk mailing site from where they send the ILs since if the IL came from the DO itself I should have got it the next day.
On another note, when I had my wife call for the status of her case yesterday the IO placed her on hold, and then came back to confirm her IL date and time.
This confirms that IOs can only tell you what's on file (ie:NOA , FP, IL sent, name check cleared), but can't tell you accurately when it will be adjudicated if they don't have the info in your case.
In most cases, ILs come from the service center. However, I've heard of a couple of instances where the IL came from the DO.
Correct. They can only tell you what they see on their monitor.
The IO saw June 6th on his/her computer as the date the IL was generated, which explains why he/she said that it was mailed on June 6th. But I digress...congrats on finally getting physical proof of your interviews!
Thanks..you'd think by now the IOs would know that he notice date and mail date are always a few days apart.
Btw, USCIS still uses "Return Service Requested" on their stamp meter, so if my address was not updated in their system it would not have been forwarded to my new address. This despite the fact that the USCIS Ombudsman recommended back in 2005 that they remove that from their stamp, to which the USCIS replied "we are working on it".

I really don't understand the purpose of having an Ombudsman, when the USCIS blatantly ignores any and all of his suggestions. If they ignore something as simple as a small change to their ostage meter, why WOULDN'T they ignore more serious issues?
It's all to document that there is a system in place to offer suggestions for improvement, albeit not enforceable. Kind of like a quality assurance department stating that they find 100 defects in their company's product, but don't take any steps to correct the product.

You'll need to provide address change and USCIS will schedule you for interview at new DO.
That's difficult to predict , although Atlanta does have faster processing than Charlotte so you may actually benefit.
