Did you see this post from the OP?  They received the petition, and USCIS requested more documents....I think USCIS is processing the original one.

You need to read through the facts, they don't line up.  Something is amiss.

I have tried to read through the facts and multiple threads..LOL....I agree that something is amiss.......How does a petition which is missing almost all required documents NOT get a flat denial?

We will cancel the money order and re file the application

We don’t have a case number yet, we are supposed to get a receipt num from the USCIS when they acknowledge receipt of the application. But the USCIS is yet to send us a Num for our case. The only way we can track our case now is through my fiancé social security num.

That doesn't make sense.......When your fiance spoke with USCIS, they could have/should have given him/her the case number.....

I'm going out on a limb here. Not to be the bearer of bad news, but unless your fiancee has provided you with a tracking number and proof it was mailed, I think he/she is just stringing you along. I believe the simplest answer is usually the right one. Maybe I am wrong, but I have a strong suspicion it was never sent. Have you seen any proof of mailing? did you round up all the information for him/her to build the packet? did you see proof of the money order or payment? While I do agree USCIS is known to not be the brightest crayon in the box, there seems to be too much bad information given to you from whatever source you are getting it from, and if you haven't called USCIS yourself to get this supposed information, I would not trust it. Just my 2 cents.

I think you may be right. Waiting months for the NOA1, and then getting an "RFE over the phone" when they call to inquire isn't how things normally work.

@Lucky CatWe thought there is something wrong as well. That is why we are trying to seek for advice.

If USCIS really has the petition, there is a case number assigned......ask your fiance why he/she didn't ask for that number.........once you have the number, you can check the status online.

It was a standard mail so there was no  tracking num. Yes, I have rounded up the information to build the packet.

I will go one step further.  Not only doesnt normally work that way, but doesn't work that way period.

Do yourself a favour and follow this. Your application is probably lost as it can be and waiting any longer is a pure waste of time.

Please also take time and read this 

also read the official instructions on the USCIS page to make sure you get the up to date forms and instructions. It seems that this didn't happened before otherwise the application would have never ended up in Arizona. 

 

Feel free to come back and ask further questions and also check in the monthly threads for K1 filers here on VJ. That will help a lot 😊

I think you meant this for the op and not me. I'm finished with the K1.
