Also, my husband knows the local Congressman, or rather, my mother-in-law does. Is it worth getting him involved as well? Will he be able to help? Or is it going to harm our case, since we've already raised a stink about it?

i can't seem to find the expedite criteria in the new USCIS site... so i just copied/pasted this one from immigration portals forum:

=========

USCIS Considerations to expedite Cases

All expedite requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis, and are granted at the discretion of the Director. The criteria are as follows:

* Severe financial loss to company or individual

* Extreme emergent situation

* Humanitarian situation

* Nonprofit status of requesting organization in furtherance of the cultural and social interests of the United States

* Department of Defense of National Interest Situation (Note: Request must come from official United States Government entity and state that delay will be detrimental to our Government)

* USCIS error

* Compelling interest of USCIS

If your case is at a local office at the time you need to make your emergency request, please go to the local office in person to make your request. Please be sure to take all supporting documentation with you.

If your case is at one of our Service Centers or the National Benefits Center, please call customer service at 1-800-375-5283 to receive further instructions on where and how to send your request.

=========

so i think you are qualified ... am i right guys? :unsure:

I believe under USCIS error, but they're stubborn and ''all knowing.'' It's worth giving a try.
