Congratulations, but why did it take so long? Were there any snags?

Ya I guess there was a snag. My fiancee' had been previously petitioned for. The relationship ended shortly after he filed but he never withdrew the petition and never responded to an RFE from USCIS. So I guess we were on the hit list because of this.

What steps did you have to take to fix it?

Congressman, Senator, Ombudsman, Tier 2, Infopasses.............Don't know if any of those actually helped or not..........I kind of think USCIS uses it's own protocol and time frame for cases such as ours. Everything I did kept me from going crazy though even if they didn't really help.
