Did the Embassy send your case back to the USCIS and the USCIS reaffirmed it and sent it back to the Embassy? Or, did your case remain at the Embassy in administrative review?

Tahoma, I think I understand your questions.........We haven't even gotten to the Embassy stage yet, this is simply the NOA2 allowing us to proceed with the interview etc. We very well could face A/R in the future. Hopefully that will not happen though, we have solid evidence, multiple visits documented and of course mounds and mounds of the traditional substantiating evidence as well. Only time will tell of course but we hope it is smooth from this point forward.

Thanks for the info, lyricalan. Your case has been at the USCIS all of this time. Good job on hanging in there.

Did your fiancée's previous petitioner end up ever withdrawing his petition? When did he originally file his petition?
