Please, see my timeline below. Could I be lost somewhere in the process? Could I have confused them by being based overseas? Should I contact my Senator?

Have you tried to call USCIS yourself? I think it would be good to contact a Senators office to get some assistance in finding out your status. It would be good to have someone in the states whom you could have better contact with and who has better contact with the USCIS. The USCIS phone prompts say to give them 60 days to process an RFE, which you are well outside of. I would explain that to the case worker at the Senators office.

I always like to take the deer in headlights approach to getting assistance. Be real scared and in the dark about what's going on, probably like how you really feel. This will hopefully get the case worker to feel a little pity for you and have a more sense of urgency. Plus try and build some repor with the case worker and try to set yourself apart from any other of the 100 petitioner phone calls they may get that day. It usually starts with "Hi, how are you doing today?"

Good Luck!! let us know what they say!! there may be another idea in mind but try and get a status first.
