K-1 petition: 43 days after RFE and still no NOA2

[ourjoy 0]

Hi guys,

For people who had an RFE notice for their K-1 petition, I just want to know the experiences of K-1 visa petitioners/beneficiaries who had an RFE and did or did not put in a service request. It's been 43 days now after my RFE. I sent a letter to my congressman's office last Friday, 06/29/2012, to seek help in facilitate my petition and I called today to check on what has been done and apparently nothing has been done on their part yet (they are blaming the storm) and so I am not expecting any quicker help from there. My questions are: (1) for those who put in a service request later on after the RFE, do you think the service request helped in getting a quicker NOA2 or it did delay it? and (2) for those who did not put in a service request, did it take more than the standard 60 days that USCIS states to get your NOA2?. I am thinking of putting in a service request but don't want to do it if it will end up delaying my petition.

Thanks.
