50 months and Counting…..
I never imagined the year would end without a decision on my case. I responded to rfe in January, since then 3 service requests, Congressman and senate office inquiries all to no avail. I called the contact center some time in July and was told the officer reviewed my case but didn’t take action on it and i should keep exercising patience. How much longer do i have to wait while the processing times continue to increase
At this point, I am considering filing a writ of mandamus early next year. If anyone has gone through this process, I would appreciate insights on the cost involved and the outcome

Guidance needed on upcoming job and travel
I recently received a job offer in the United States. As part of the role, I am required to participate in a secondment program in Europe for four weeks in March.
My current Refugee Travel Document (RTD) expires in February, and applying for a new one typically takes over 13 months for approval. At this time, I have not yet received my green card and have not applied for a new travel document.
I am from one of the countries under the partial travel ban.
Given these circumstances, I am unsure how to proceed and would appreciate advice on the available options and next steps.
anyone getting blessed with approvals on this Holiday week?
I was really hopeful to get an approval before 2026 arrives. anyone getting 485 approved without interview?

Hello, has anyone
Hello, has anyone else received an I-130 notification saying there are 3 weeks left until a decision? Perhaps it was less than that, or the timeframe was just right? It's been coming down for over a year, and now it says there are 3 weeks left. It was also submitted along with the I-485. How positive is it that both applications will be approved, given that they were submitted almost 4 years ago?
13 meses esperando Cita Embajada 🇺🇸 en 🇩🇴
Dios mió pero este proceso con la embajada de 🇺🇸 en 🇩🇴 parece eterno Jesús, un desastre total este año 2025 para ellos con los casos IR/CR es bastante abuso tener que esperar 14 meses por una cita.
Entrarán al 2026 con bastantes casos rezagados del 2024 de octubre a diciembre lo que posiblemente les tome 3 meses o mas del 2026, para mi seguirán aumentando sus tiempos de 14 hasta llegar quien sabe si a 24 meses con supuestamente una visa disponible que parece mas invisible que otra cosa.
Realmente nunca habia visto una embajada tan desastrosa y con un manejo operativo tan abusivo y negligente, quiera Dios que los miles de inmediatos que tenemos nuestra vida parada, los planes a futuro en stop y nuestras familias lejos de nosotros, podamos recibir esa cita lo mas breve posible porque la embajada de 🇺🇸 en 🇩🇴 esta peor que la de Juárez mil veces.
Feliz año nuevo y que este 2026 pueda ser nuestro año de reunificarnos con nuestras familias en 🇺🇸❤️#santodomingo #republicadominicana #ir1
IR1 – DQ Sept 23 | Mumbai Embassy | Still waiting for interview
Hi everyone,
My IR-1 (spouse of USC) case was documentarily qualified (DQ) on Sept 23, and my case is assigned to the Mumbai embassy.
know Mumbai has a heavy backlog, but I wanted to check:
Anyone here with similar DQ dates for Mumbai?
How long did it take you to receive your IL after DQ?
Any recent experiences or timelines would really help.
Thanks 🙏
Anyone still waiting for VAWA approval from December 2021
Hello everyone,
I filed my VAWA (I-360) in December 2021 and I’m still waiting for approval 😔. My attorney recently sent an inquiry to USCIS regarding both I-360 and I-485, and I was told to wait a few months for a response from USCIS.
Is anyone else here who filed around December 2021 and is still waiting?If your attorney sent an inquiry, how long did it take for USCIS to respond? Any experiences or timelines would really help.
Thank you in advance, and wishing strength to everyone going through this process 💙
#Happynewyear2026!!!
