No hopes left. I guess I’ll have to wait for another 1 year
My I-130 was approved in May, 2023. I was happy that it’s finally happening, but later after reading the notice I realized that it’s gonna take more time. Recently, I filed for I-824 and the processing center is Potomac. I see that people waiting more than a year to get their I-824 approved. I’m frustrated and sad.

@april 2022 seems like your case is running outside of processing times. You should contact USCIS.
