I’m tired is this normal
I thought would have had the interview by this time. I haven’t received a single update since I submitted on August 20 2025. I’m applying for my spouse that lives in Algeria, and I’m an American Citizen. I honestly don’t know if I need a lawyer at this point to submit an expedited request, or will this affect my application? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

It will not affect your application, but it will most likely get rejected. Processing times have gone up to 17 months. I’m an April 2025 filer and I’m still waiting, married to a U.S. citizen as well.
