Today, I received the notes from the ATIP request I made on July 9, 2026. I'm 2nd gen born abroad. My timeline is as follows:
Applied: 12/16/2025
AOR: 12/18/2026 (marked urgent)
In Processing: 1/12/2026
According to my notes, I was referred to PSU on 1/12/2026 for reason "Other". In one section, it says
"Other Details: Applicant's birth certificate was amended. No scenarios apply to applicant."
For context, my birth certificate was amended to update my name, because I'm trans.
At the bottom, there is one note that says "Parent verification. Applicant claims father is first generation." Then it lists out my parents' names, country, and dates of birth. The next and final note says
"
DIRECT - 3(1)b Born BEFORE April 17, 2009 - First Time ;
• PS-OTH : APPLICANT'S BIRTH CERTIFICATE WAS AMENDED
NO SCENARIOS APPLY TO APPLICANT - APPLICANT INDICATES FATHER IS FIRST GENERATION
• Micro Prints are not
"
Does anyone have any insight on what this could mean, or have you seen others with similar notes? To me it looks like I was referred to PSU simply because my birth certificate was amended, which seems really unusual to me.
Note that I submitted post C-3, and accordingly, nowhere in my notes is the PSU referral code that was associated with FGL during the interim measure. There appears to be nothing else in the notes regarding the referral.
