Help please..Exoedite Cr 1

We need any help we could get. My husband is a DOD personnel working and living in afganistan. He tried to expedite the case more than a month ago but we haven't got approved yet. He called USCIS to find out what's going on and they just told him wait. They can't even locate our file and can't tell us where it is.

Today my husband called and talked to tier2. She told him we wouldn't get approved till Dec or Jan since he was ending his tour in Dec.

however I saw people who are in the middle of their deployment and got their approvals right away.

Does anyone have any idea what to do?

Please help us...

Thank you.

I have come across expediting in advance of deployment, not sure what the raison d'etre would be in this case.

Is your husband a civilian personnel working for the DOD?

I think expedited service for military deployment only applies to active duty military members.

Thank you guys for the responses.

I guess what we can to is to wait or I might tell my husband to get a job in another country.....

Japan?

Would make life a lot easier.

Yes... We never imagined living here together but this visa nonsense makes us think about it. Maybe if we could live in Okinawa....

Or tell him to go to active duty to avoid future problems like this.

Neko, what's the reason for the expedite? Simply working for the military doesn't mean you can be expedited.

Especially since your husband is not even in the US. Now, if he was still in the US and about to go on a deployment, that's a reason for an expedite.

Mine is different in that we're both here in Japan and he will be moving back to the US. Being that I am his only relative and I am on his military orders, they have approved expedite of my case
