I understand but that's not necessarily true i waited 299 days there was nothing wrong and no RFE, it just depends on the case.

But you had a positive outcome after all. And yes no one knows how USCIS are working but I personally think some of them are slacking at their jobs, and we have to suffer after all. That's why I said instead of moving so quickly from one month to another they should finish one month and than move to another and not to drag a few cases for months.

I can understand your reluctance in feeling positive since this is a repeat for you, but other than what you have done there is not much more you can do other than wait, but I do understand! Is your RFE the same as with the first K1?

As @geowrian says, USCIS is similar to a huge grocery store with many checkout lanes.........at times, some lanes are just faster than others.....

Mine too. The saddest thing is I cannot move on with my life. I am just waiting for God know what. I want to get married and start a family and continue my life and it's so sad you have to prove your relationship to someone and they will make decisions for you.

I agree........but do you realize that at the end of FY 2018, there were more than 1.5 million I-130s awaiting review.......that quite a backlog for CR-1/IR-1 folks.....

 

and that's a long checkout line.

No in the first one they asked my divorce certificate. And in the second one they asked prove of meeting within 2 years and beneficiary intent to marry. We put everything in the first package but I guess we just got a very picky officer who is just looking for something to pick at.

I know that's why I applied for k1 fiance instead of getting married and apply for spouse visa But now I hit another waiting line. I think it's all depend on luck. There is not a formula here. It's purely luck.

You'll be alright this time around, just ease up on yourself a bit and try to relax you'll be fine!
