I know someone from my work who filed and waited and waited and waited - they had lost her file and they had to start the process all over again. I hope that is not the case with your file!

Good luck,

I called all they said they would put a service request on my case and I will recieve an answer in 45 days.... This is really making me upset my husband is in Pakistan and there are bomb blasts almost everyday....If they lost my case this will really make me upset I better get a fast approval if I have to start over again....

We were waiting months and months and not even one touch @ USCIS in 6 months! Finally, I contacted my state senator and, lo and behold, our case was touched. I'm sure it had been sitting on a shelf somewhere collecting dust!

Fortunately, just a few weeks after getting the senator's office involved, they processed our I-130...unfortunately, we got an RFE....but it did get things moving along...and two weeks after we fixed the RFE, we got case approval!

I say if it's been more than six months since you submitted the paperwork....get the state senator involved. That will at least put a fire under the USCIS' butt to get things moving.
