Has anyone recently renewed TN status at Peace Bridge in Buffalo by crossing into Canada and immediately turning around to return to the U.S. for a scheduled TN appointment?

I already have a TN renewal appointment confirmed at Peace Bridge. I’m specifically interested in recent Peace Bridge experiences and whether anyone was... Read more

Hi, everyone, I had an interview last months, and I went to pick up my decision after two weeks. However, they told me that the decision was not ready and they will mail it to me. I checked my online case status, it said: "Your decision is pending". However today the online status changed to "Your application with USCIS is still pending." Does anyone had similar experiences and what is the reason for the change? Thanks.
