334 days.... Still waiting

Have you tried involving your State Representative to inquire about your case? So sorry it's taken so long. I hope you get some good news soon.

Yes, I have. They're basically giving him the same story as me and he isn't pushing for a decision. He sent an email Thursday, hopefully hear something soon. Thank you

So sorry to hear that. I hope you're doing anything you can to be proactive.

Even if you don't see immediate results, it beats waiting around...   I hope you get approved soon.

Thank you, I'm trying, but it becomes disheartening.

Nothing in background. I used the only representative in my area. They are strict in helping someone outside their district. I'm gonna call tomorrow. Nothing should take this long with technology.

Are u and the beneficiary/petitioner both in the US?   Because that exactly what happened to us.  We were tranferred to our local office in August awaiting a marriage interview, which happened 6 months later.. we were just approved in February.

No, he is not in the states. I keep trying to tell them that. They act confused

334 dias ... Ainda à espera

It's sad to hear this, I've waited for almost a year until I've had this dream. OK, I know very well how this wait is agonizing, but everything will work out, try to keep the positive thoughts. Since November we are in contact with the congressman, we also speak with the senator's office, I do not know if this really helps, it does not hurt to try, we always had the same answer, that was on a second check and should wait, we always called, even if it is Little bit, do all you can. Luck and love to all.

You're welcomed @DandTO16 . I hope you hear something soon. I really wonder what the heck they are doing and why so many have be delayed this long. That is extremely long. USCIS is terrible. I had my state senator help me. My congressman in my region was of no help and didn't even respond to me. Both senators responded but I went with the one who responded first. Thank goodness I did as his office was extremely helpful. I understand it's easier said than done, but keep your chin up, you will be approved soon. I recommend once you get your petition approved that you request an expedite at NVC. It will not get you through faster at NVC but it will put you ahead of the line at the time of your interview if your embassy accepts the expedite request. It's worth a shot.

Você é bem-vindo @ DandTO16  . Espero que você ouça algo em breve. Eu realmente me pergunto o que diabos eles estão fazendo e por que tantos têm sido adiada por muito tempo. Isso é extremamente longo. USCIS é terrível. Eu tinha meu senador estadual me ajudar. Meu congressista na minha região não ajudou e nem me respondeu. Ambos os senadores responderam, mas fui com o que respondeu primeiro. Obrigado bondade ENTENDI como seu escritório foi extremamente atenciosa. Eu entendo que é mais fácil dizer do que fazer, mas manter o queixo para cima, você será aprovado em breve. Eu recomendo uma vez que você começa seu pedido aprovado que você pede um expedite em NVC . Ele não vai fazer você passar mais rápido no NVC, mas ele vai colocá-lo à frente da linha no momento da sua entrevista, se a sua embaixada aceita o pedido acelerar. Isto'  

 

 

Parabéns @Rafael G  em sua aprovação . Espero por um processo muito rápido no NVC para você. 

Hello, make an Expedite? With what justification? I was almost a year from USCIS, is it possible that an Expedite is delayed?
