Rather than ranting twice, I'm just cutting and pasting what I posted in the July filers thread.

Still absolutely nothing new on my case.

PD July 6th, 2015

xfer to Potomac 10/15/2015

RFE documents received at potomac center 12/29

spoke to tier 2 too many times to count at this point.

Yesterday they said "we show that we received your RFE documents and your case is in process but we can't give you a time when it will be completed."

seriously, wth does that even mean? It means "we have all your stuff but we don't go in any kind of order so yours is going to sit on someone's desk until they dig it out. You and your kids and husband will just have to sit and suffer."

Seriously, my kids are not doing so well. They both now are being withdrawn and sad. Our daughter is often in tears because she wants her Daddy. All I can say to her is "someday honey, someday..."

On the up side, congratulations to all of you who have been approved. Way to go! Treasure your time with your families!

Any my day just keeps getting better....mailman just stopped by and my NOA2 approval letter is here!

So i figured out what happened. I had already been approved (most likely) and just hadnt received the letter yet. I wrote to my congresswoman yesterday (email) and they must've reached out to potomac and inquired about my case, in doing so they updated the website today for me, stating that i had been approved and i just happened to receive the letter in the mail.

The letter says "notice date: February 25, 2016"

Its a beautiful day, i might go play the lottery :P

Congrats!! I hope October filers see approval letters soon too.

Jeeez and here I was complaining about being from August 7th.... the RFE really messed up your case it seems like.

Hopefully since this has picked up dramatically they get involved with your case and give you that NOA2 soon

Actually, I just got off the phone with someone from my state congressional office. They are going to look into it, or at least contact the right people to check into it and hopefully get some answers.

She did mention something that not a single person from the USCIS has stated. She said that it is possible that USCIS is stll waiting on information/confirmations from my husbands govt. That would make sense considering we spent 7 years trying to get me permanent residence there and it never once went anywhere, never processed, not a thing. Immigration isn't a priority there, especially going out of the country.

Who knows. Hopefully something will happen, and quickly!

PD 09/29.. Called the USCIS no with the '87716' trick.. only to be told that my application is well within processing time and it can take upto 60 days.. Which means almost 7 months to get an approval. What a joke!?!

Not yet. I got a case number by mail but it says it doesn´t exist when I check online. it´s been a week now. But they already cashed the check, so it should be a good sign, right?
