I-130
Ugh so tired of waiting! I’m currently over seas staying with my husband in Yemen waiting for an approval. So happy for everyone who’s gotten their cases approved recently! My lawyer who’s taking on my case has said I should get an approval anywhere from 14-16 months. My case has been reviewing since March 1st 2023. Seeing many people getting approved around 200-280 days in makes me wonder does the wait time vary on where your spouse lives?
I work with special needs elementary students and I’ve had to put my life on hold waiting for my hsuabnd to get to the states.
Coming back and fourth from Yemen to American isn’t so easy. So I’m planning on staying here in Yemen until hopefully I get an interview! trying not to keep my hopes up for an approval to high 🥲

Not trying to bring your hopes down, but if you're still waiting on the i-130 being approved, you still got quite a road ahead. Once it gets approved and sent to the NVC, and once you submit the documents needed, you will have to wait months to get an interview letter

Please people never lose hope. Fight for your rights. You can sue USCIS for delay on your own, if you cannot afford an attorney, my friend did it for his delayed case, and got papers within 45 days. Do youtube search to learn more about it "writ of mandamus pro se"
