Finally approved I-131
I submitted initial expedite request in Oct 2022 , got an expedite request received notice 2 weeks later, did not hear anything more for 4 months, no request for evidence , got fed up and talked to live agent on Emma in February 2023 asking what’s going on with my case. Agent said it’s pending adjudication by an officer, I told them it’s been 4 months, this is not expedited at all. I asked for a call back from a tier 2 agent. agent called me 2 days later, repeating the same thing (waiting to be adjudicated by an officer), I told them it’s taking too long and I need to travel abroad due to emergency. agent suggested I open another expedite request. I agreed and told to agent to open another expedite request on humanitarians grounds, sick family member. they opened a request, I received a notice 2 days later confirming the expedite request. Another day later I got an email saying that the request will be handled by NBC directly, and that they want evidence. A week later ( February 28) I faxed a cover letter and family members diagnosis report and letter from doctor. 6 days later, today, case was approved.
my case was estimated to be approved in 11.5 months, based on uscis estimate for i-131 at nbc. I just about hit the 11.5 month mark since filling. I wonder if I got approved because of expedite request or because it was finally time based on my filing date.
my advice is if u filed an expedite request and did not hear anything, file another one with an agent. be sure to give a cover letter explaining your situation when requested for evidence.

Gosia gosiaMar 23, 2023

Julia jApr 6, 2023
Some slightly good news today, as others have also reported, my case status was changed today from “Case approved march 6th” to “Case approved April 6” , and the approval notice was uploaded on my uscis account! I’m not sure what caused them to make this change, but I have been contacting live agents through Emma, sent messages regarding my case in the inbox page on my uscis account, and filed the e request , so not sure what ultimately causes the case status to change. Now fingers crossed the AP gets delivered soon! Good luck everyone
