@IRN Sorry to hear you're going through the same thing. It's so disheartening. I went to a prominent lawyer today who works in the Bangladeshi community in NYC. He told me that when Trump was in office, many visa cases were halted entirely. Now, even though Biden says immigration is completely open, they're really only prioritizing petitions filed by US citizens. Before COVID there was at least some standard operating procedure, but due to the backlogs caused by COVID things have since gone completely haywire.
I asked if he could represent my cases and write a letter on our behalf, but he said it wouldn't make a difference because we're already documentarily approved. He did advise that I reach out to my local congressional office and urge them to look into the matter.
It's good to know there's nothing outstanding we need to do, but it's frustrating to continue waiting with no next steps.
