need advice, case in limbo

[dalison 0]

Hello,

My fiancee and I started the application process for a K1 visa in April of last year. Our I-129F was approved in August. Since then, we have been stuck: our application was never sent to the national visa center. I called in October to have my application resent, and it was in November. It still has not reached the national visa center. I have been calling several times a week but I just can't get any information or advice. In January I asked for expedited service and was told I would receive it, and that I should receive an update on my case in 30 days. Those 30 days are now up, and I have received no information. I call what seems like everyday and no one ever tells me anything. Sometimes they tell me things which are not correct (e.g. "you haven't called since october" and then try to repeat steps which have already proven fruitless). I feel weak and hopeless and worry that my fiancee and I will have to reschedule our wedding plans which we made well over a year in advance.

What can I do? Should I contact a lawyer?

When you call USCIS (Not NVC since you requested an expedite and you said it was approved) who do you speak to?

Have you asked to speak to a tier 2 supervisor?

Did you ask "when did my petition physically leave the service center"?

Also have you tried contacting your embassy if you were approved for a expedite they would have sent it straight away them after approval. Send them an email also.
