I-130 "Stuck" at Extra Security Checks

[antsar19 12]

It has been 20.5 months since I filed the I-130 for my husband. I have been filing an inquiry basically every month since my congress person's office was told my case was pending extended security checks in May of 2020. Typically I received an email saying my case was in line for review and would be reviewed in the order it was received (which is 100% incorrect as it has been almost 2 years since I filed and plenty of cases have been adjudicated since 🙄🙄). In any case, today, I received the attached response. 

 

Does anyone know what security checks they are supposedly completing? Is this on me? Is it on my husband? And how in the heck do I get more information/answers about why my case has been in limbo for almost two years? I'm sick of waiting and I'm sick of being told to KEEP waiting when the consular process is slated to take another 2 years.

 

This plus COVID is causing severe strain on my mental health and his. Does anyone have any recommendations?

If you search some of the phrases from the USCIS message you will find a few results from over the years with people in similar situations:

Read through some of those threads and you may get some more insight. It looks like a lot of the cases were eventually approved.
