USCIS F2A to CR1 transfer delay after citizenship - no notification for months. Help!

I found a way to solve F2A to CR1 visa transfer delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej4rsofitaQ

Congrats on becoming a citizen! 🎉 But man, that wait time sucks. Have you tried calling USCIS directly? Sometimes you gotta be persistent to get answers.

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/eSz742AOvHc

Ugh, USCIS and their delays 🙄 I swear they operate on a different timeline than the rest of us. Have you considered reaching out to your local congressperson's office? They can sometimes help expedite things.

I'm in the same boat, OP. Been waiting for my category change for 5 months now. The system is so broken, it's not even funny anymore. Hang in there!

Here's what you need to know about F2A to CR1 transfers after naturalization: 1. The transfer isn't automatic. You need to file Form I-485 Supplement A. 2. Processing times vary wildly depending on your service center. 3. Make sure all your documents are up to date. 4. Consider filing an e-request if it's been more than the posted processing time. 5. Keep an eye on your case status online. Remember, patience is key here. The system is backlogged, but they will get to your case. If you're really concerned, an immigration lawyer might be able to help speed things up.

have u checked ur spam folder? sometimes uscis emails end up there lol

Plot twist: what if USCIS is actually run by sloths? 🦥 That would explain the speed of their processes!

I went through a similar situation last year! The F2A to CR1 transfer took forever for me too. What helped was submitting a case inquiry online through the USCIS website after my case went beyond normal processing times. Also, make sure you have your naturalization certificate number handy when you call - that seemed to help the agents locate my case faster. Don't lose hope, it will eventually get processed! The automatic upgrade should happen once they review your file, but sometimes you need to give them a little nudge.

I'm dealing with a similar situation right now! Became a citizen in March and still waiting for the F2A to CR1 transfer. One thing that helped me was creating a USCIS online account if you haven't already - sometimes you can see status updates there before they send notifications. Also, I read somewhere that the transfer should be automatic once they process your naturalization, but the system is so backlogged right now. Have you tried checking if your priority date became current in the visa bulletin? That might give you an idea of where things stand. Hang in there - I know it's frustrating but we'll get through this! 💪
