@Annie G I thought the ban doesn’t affect those inside the country applying for AOS but only those abroad applying for IV !

@Tash B I though the same but my lawyer told me cases from partially ban countries are not moving either, and I feel my case is stuck so it makes sense that is why I decided to ask here and we all are in the same situation

@Annie G I pray God do a shifting for all of us soon , let’s join our faith together and keep on praying for a change 🙏

USCIS has publicly acknowledged that strengthened screening and vetting affected certain pending cases and that some groups remain subject to extra review. So prolonged silence in one of those cases can be real, even for people already inside the United States, and not just a normal service-center delay.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask them in our next Lawfully office hours session!
