Aprproval for principal but not dependent
Hi,
my case was approved today! great news! However my wife case was not approved yet. Do you know if this is normal and if her case may have been sent to another FO? (mine was sent to NY- non local). Is there any action I can take?
thanks!

Same situation here we’ve been waiting since October, even after the principal applicant was approved. My wife and daughter are still waiting. In May, after we contacted our congressman, the case was transferred to the NBC. and still waiting…

My case was similar—my wife was approved, and I received an RFE. In that document, they asked for evidence (photos, joint bank accounts, etc.). I sent everything, and after two months, I was just approved as well. I believe it’s just a matter of time.
