Approved
All parise to God, after the case was put on Security Check and checking every day, also contacted a lawyer to sue the USCIS we finally got an approval.
We waited close to 15 month. We lost hope along the way. It felt like forever. But finally we are able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Although there is another wait overseas for the actual visa, at least have more solid time frame.
I know most people who get approved do not go back to lawfully to update. I want to say thanks to the website, all the people working on it, all the people who are updating their cases.
I hope all of you get your immigration case sorted out.
My advise to all is one, contact your congress representative when your case is passed the normal processing time. Ask for you FOIPA file with USCIS. And finally of case is not moving consider filling a case against USCIS.

@Jesus saves . we did not have to file cases fortunately, the approval came same week we were planning to file. i did my research on attorneys and i talked to few of them it seems like jim hacking is the best and most knowledgeable and not money hungry like any other attorney
lucky TOct 11, 2023
@noura b thanks so much.
so what did you eventually do for approval?
noura bOct 11, 2023
@Jesus saves . no we didn’t file a case. however, we requested FOIPA with uscis
lucky TOct 11, 2023
@noura b does that help? what's it for?
my case is already beyond processing time that's why I'm looking for the best thing to do. already used congress, filed service requests severally, expedited, but nothing.
lucky TOct 11, 2023
@noura b so what's FOIPA for? will it boost my case approval?
noura bOct 11, 2023
@Jesus saves . freedom of information public act, before we sued uscis ,, the attorney asked for us to request our FOIPA from uscis. one week after uscis confirmed that they received our FOIPA request we got approval.
lucky TOct 11, 2023
