⏳ EB-3 Skilled Worker Pending - Field Office Inactivity Despite Current Priority Date

⏳ **Case Status: Pending** --- An EB-3 applicant filed in early April and experienced no file activity during a three-month window when their priority date was current. The field office (FO) failed to open or process the case even while the applicant was current, and the situation persists with no updates even as others at different field offices receive movement. This case involves an EB-3 applicant who filed in the first week of April and has experienced complete inactivity at their local field office. Despite being current for approximately three months, the field office did not open or touch the file. Now that the applicant is no longer current, they are observing that other applicants — including those who are also not current — are receiving case updates, suggesting the issue is field-office-specific rather than a systemic USCIS-wide backlog. The applicant is seeking options to prompt their field office to engage with the file. --- **[📎 View Original Post](https://www.reddit.com/r/USCIS/comments/1x13u9k/no_matter_im_current_or_not_my_fo_doesnt_open_my/)** *Source: Reddit EB-3 search* --- *This post was automatically curated from online sources to share real case experiences with the community.*
