Thank you so much for your help. I've noticed for many other people you provided a link to a google doc for the P3 letter, but in this case you linked to the embassy website. I have read through this several times, and just now reviewed it again, but I don't see any specific documents listed it just states:

Am I missing something?

 

I have been working on the i-134 and supporting documents, and I will also include evidence of our ongoing relationship, but I haven't seen anything else I need to include.

 

Thanks again.

Oh well I feel stupid now. Thanks for your patience. I have read through that before, but missed it this last time for some reason.

Hi everyone, whoever is left.

 

Still waiting here! This is the final day that they had to respond for our request for out of processing and they still haven’t bothered so.... I’m pretty annoyed and bored of this whole dysfunctional system now.

Distance is no demon,

Often I think it can be a blessing for those in love,

a silent, underappreciated blessing.

It will have no power over us.

When you come stumbling to my door after months, with flowers and wine in hand,

I will be ready.

When I pick you up from the airport, the feeling will be unmatched,

that feeling like birds bursting in song from beneath my lungs, 

that feeling unlike any other.

We have to stay strong and remember what is most important;

I love you, and you, me.

The air between us is nothing but a metaphor.

Nothing, not one thing, can come between us.

They just responded to my fiancé (we used my email address) to say that - after the full 30 days they had to respond - their “records show” that he (the petitioner) is unauthorised to access this information... on his own petition... that they addressed to him. 

 

I’ve never dealt with such a terrible department. Honestly.

noa1 date is actually they date on ur hard copy. Sadly if u reach the magical 220 day u must wait till 225 to contact Uscis. They use what the new site says. Even if ur paper says X date. 

They added 5 days onto everyone’s accepted on NOA1

I’ve never dealt with such a terrible department. Honestly. 

I'm the petitioner, and I received the same exact answer two weeks ago so I called into USCIS the next day.  Tier 1 had no idea what she had to tell me so she transferred me over to Tier 2.  Tier 2 basically said that my case is "processing without issues" and that a lot of cases are backlogged.  I tried to get more info from her but she just kept reiterating that there wasn't any issue with the case and it's being processed. 

 

NOA1 on new site is Dec 11th so it's been 8 months now.  I'm probably one of the oldest December stragglers now.

Make another call and ask for a tier 2. That's completely wrong. Somebody is messing with you.

We called again. Spoke to tier 2. They said “you have to wait another two weeks to call back again” having told us that there is an RFE on the system that hasn’t been sent yet. Last time we called it was an NOID, the time before that it was nothing, the time before that it was a denial. 

 

Is it too too much to ask to be able to be told factually accurate information about what is going on with my life? Or... 

 

This process is damaging.

I don’t know what they have on the case because they told us something different everytime. My finance asked if he can send the info we know we need to add anywhere for them to receive and they just say call back in two weeks 🤷🏼‍♀️ So I imagine they won’t fax anything. However, if they brush us off again in two weeks I will get him to ask.
