Congrats!! That’s very quick @Enigomlom

 

@Sol and Yone I am still waiting to get my welcome letter from the NVC. Have you reached out to the congress person? 

@Dreamer25 Sorry for the delay, I did reach out but never heard a response back. I am not sure if it made a difference because I also used the ask Emma feature several times. My case ended up getting reopened and I received a second approval that same day which was about a few weeks ago like three and that seemed to do the trick. I then got my NVC letter 24 hours after.

You need to file a mandamus at this point. You've been skipped over. This is becoming more and more common these days. Our PD was July 28, 2023. It was clear we were skipped over by late October. We hired an attorney, filed a lawsuit, and were approved in mid-December. Now we're DQ'd. Highly recommended.

How much did it cost to file a lawsuit?

$5400

From August 2023 it looks like 15,000 cases are still pending approval. About 26 percent of those submitted are still waiting. Maybe just unlucky.

Just checking, you are a USC? Not a LPR?

 

Have either of your I-130’s been approved, or both of them still waiting?

I’m a USC. Still waiting for my wife’s I-130 to be approved. I’d even be happy with an RFE at this point.
