I recently open service request for I-130 case  outside of our normal processing time. And I received email saying 
Recently, you or your representative contacted USCIS concerning your Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, to notify us that you believe your case is outside of our normal processing time. Your case is currently under review by an officer. We regret that we are not able to give you a time frame for when we will complete the review of your application."
I AM so frustrated since most of the people who applied with me with the same service center already got interview date.   Also in the email they include A-number even if I am US citizen is there a chance USCIS might think I am green card holder? Even if I send them my nationalize certificat?  I am just confused. What should I do?

The A-number is likely for the beneficiary, not yourself. What service center and what is your NOA1? It says your case is under review by an officer so who knows, maybe it's soon, since most replies I see usually just say "wait 60 more days" so maybe yours is a good sign

It's  potomac service center. don't know it's been more than 120 days since RFE I am thinking to sue USCIS after this month. since there is no other option. It's not fair.

You can sue, but you'd get a faster outcome of the lawsuit by flushing your money down the toilet.

Do a forum search to read more.
