Mine is a hardship waiver, they requested a few docs that I had originally sent, which was weird, and asked me to create a monthly budget and send to them as well. That was all in December 2017. 

Did they ask you for an additional statement? Do you have a USC spouse and or child? Is there anything you can tell me that was sent, that is not exclusive to your case that helped?

 

 

Thanks

Dear All,

 

Finally, I received the I-797 today, my application started from 10/08/2017. Such a long wait.

 

Here is a simplified timeline:

Embassy Non-Objection Letter: 10/8/2017-12/20/2017

DOS: 10/08/2017 (online)-12/26/2017(mail out)-1/26/2018 (Favorable Recommendation sent)

USCIS: 2/5/2018 (I-797C)-4/5/2018(I-797)

Congratulation!!

 

My case is very similar to you and my timeline is like below list:

 

DOS: 1/26/2018 (Favorable Recommendation sent)

USCIS: 2/6/2018 (I-797C) Receipt Notice

But, I still need to wait for the further information. 

 

Dear Lulu00, Do you find out any status changed from USCIS website, could you share with me this information?

 

I think I got the mailed approval first. The online status changed later. I check the status through a Case app. I have already deleted it and I do not recall the exact name, but it has the USCIS logo as the app icon.
