Tampa, FL USCIS Office?

Does anyone know how long it takes from the time you file your I-600A w/the Tampa FL USCIS office until you receive your I-171H. We sent in our application in the beginning of May and I'm starting to wonder how long it will take to get the I-171H?

Thank you!

Hi

We were very lucky. Ours took 6 weeks in the fall of 2006. They are GREAT on the phone. I would call them (we got the # from our agency) and find out where yours is!

Thank you for the info. I will give them a call this week. It's only been 3 weeks for us but it feels like a year! LOL

Hi there
We had the Tampa office, and did our fingerprints on 7/25 and rec'd our I171H last Saturday, 8/11. Even our agency said that it was really fast. I would definitely check with your agency or your social worker and see if they can find out.
