Finally!
This has been such a crazy experience. From dealing with depression and anxiety. I had to channel my energy to learning patience and finding healing through God, just to get me through the whole ordeal. I’m glad this is over and really wish the system gets it together. I wish everyone the best. Stay strong.

Mr MCCNov 22, 2023
why did your i-130 took so time before approval?
My RockNov 22, 2023
congratulations@Snowblank Sn
did you get to make any inquiries during this wait and was your rfe for medical and what's your FO?

@Snowblank Sn what was the RFE for?
Snowblank SnNov 22, 2023
@jet blue @My Rock The RFE was for medical. I sent out multiple inquiries that never went anywhere even though I was passed the processing time. That was no help at all. My attorney updated his contact information and received the approval email afterwards. one never knows why it works for some and not others. FO - Baltimore

@Martins Chima no clue. Documents go to Potomac to gather dust in my opinion 🤷🏽♀️.
Mr MCCNov 22, 2023
@Snowblack Sn was your case transfered to Potomac from another service center? and was your spouse or petitioner a citizen or green card holder i.e permanent residency
w s 🇨🇦🇺🇸Nov 22, 2023

@Snowblank Sn

I am also in Baltimore FO. Interviewed in 2021. submitted medical RFE since Nov 2nd of 2022.
