I am wondering why our I-130 is taking longer than usual.

I am a US C. female married to an illegal alien from Mexico

He came here at 16 years old.

We married when i was 18 and he 21, which was back in June of 2012. I became pregnant a month after and now have our child. He was born in April of 2013. It was a great pregnancy and very fast delivery.

We already filed in JANUARY of 2013 and received a REQUEST FOR EVIDENCE in November 2013. USCIS asked for copy of marriage certificate, we had already sent it, but did again anyway. It was a certified copy of our marriage. Plus, i sent them a copy of my son's birth certificate.

They received it(according to online case status report) on the 25th of NOVEMBER 2013. It will be one year in 2 weeks since we have filed. Our Lawyer said it has been a little longer than usual.

We do not depend on gvn't. We live on our own. I stopped working, and now will continue college+ will enter the work force again. .Does that matter?

Does the I-130 really take this long?

Could it be because of our young age?

Should I change lawyers? ( i dont know if it has to do with this, but I heard it does)

Can anyone give me some help? or advice?

Which city did you send off the RFE response to ?

I was not aware AOS was possible for someone that EWI.

did you file the i-130 alone or with any other forms? your age/work status does not matter in adjudication time of the i-130, however have you or your attorney made an inquiry request?

When you say your husband is an illegal alien is that due to him overstaying or did he EWI (Enter Without Inspection)? If the latter has your attorney filed an I-601A?
