Perhaps in this current Biden administration USCIS agencies will be empathetic and understanding in all circumstances

CASE UPDATE!

 

Today, January 16 2023 I received a case update that the petition has been sent to the Department of State for visa processing.

 

This can only mean the petition was approved and is being sent to NVC for processing.

You're welcome tbone, you can toss this one in the books. Of course it's very specific circumstances, but people in the future will now have some kind of answer if they're ever in a similar situation. I'm glad to have provided the details to futue VJers in the event they find themselves in this situation.

Would you like for the thread to be locked now that everything's resolved?

Oh that's alright, I'm not really bothered by the occasional notification, it never got that busy here anyway.

Hey there, I am starting the CR1 process and am similar situation where I fear my old case may be AWA. Would you recommend Lolly as an attorney? I just reached out to them based on this thread

 

Congrats on your acceptance!

Thanks.. so I'll tell you honestly that I cannot recommend them. Lolly will speak with you at first, when you hire them and make payment they pass it off to the paralegals. My paralegal was Yareth Sarmiento. I don't want to say she doesn't do a good job, because she did the research, found the specific part of the law where my case would not be applicable as an AWA case, and wrote out a memorandum to send over to USCIS.

 

I'll state all the issues now along the process, which are very similar to issues other people have had if you go check their reviews on Google. Lack of communication, spelling errors and mistakes on basic facts about the case like that's it's a fiancée visa petition. Then more lack of communication, not responding to emails. Not calling when she says she will. When she did respond, it was great. She took care of the issue and I was satisfied. But I felt like it really should not be like this. She also did not send out the memorandum when we fixed all the issues on it. I got back to her after a few months and she told me she will send it out asap. After that then finally I had a case update saying "correspondence received".

 

In conclusion, do a bit of research and look for another attorney, check their reviews on Google especially.

Thank you so much for the fast and detailed reply. It sounds like they spend more time on marketing than on the cases. That’s very good to know. I wish this website had a good section for lawyer reviews/referrals to reference.

This may have been answered in the 4 pages already but can you give me a rough breakdown of timeline? When did you submit? When did you do biometrics?
