Any reason why ? I have no idea. As the OP stated, its hard to get a hold of a warm body, at least a warm body that knows anything, and infopass has been useless. There were no problems at the interview. My status on the website was last updated Oct 07. I have no criminal history if in fact the FBI is checking me. The only flag I can think of is I have traveled to about 65 countries. contacted onbusman ? yes - do this. We had three different ways to rattle their cage. They all said to check back in 90 days, so that gave us one probe every month. Try the ombudsman, find a Congressman who will at least forward your inquiry to the USCIS and pass along the response, and schedule an InfoPass appointment. In our case, the first round got the response that they had just initiated the program where an AOS could be approved without waiting for the FBI background check and to wait and see if that would get it going. If you file a lawsuit, or file a Freedom of Information request, that can provide an excuse for them to do nothing while that request is being processed, although others have had luck with filing the writ of mandamus lawsuit.
