The wait is finally over
#130
After nearly 1 year of waiting, we received an RFE in late April requesting evidence our marriage was bona fide. We painstakingly provided over 700 pages of evidence. USCIS received our response on Friday and on Monday, the site was updated to acknowledge receipt.
This morning, I had four email notices that actions were taken on our file. When I logged in, the status said the file was being actively reviewed, however there was an approval notice in tbe documents section. Our case was processed at the Potomac Center.
This was such an incredibly hard and trying process. Do not lose faith, instead remember the liove that led us all to embark on this journey.

In our case, I was fortunate enough to move overseas and continue to work for my US employer. I had to travel back to the US about once a month for work. The evidence we submitted was indexes of, for example, all the documents showing I changed my name after marriage, indexes of our joint financial information, evidence of me maintaining our US residence to return to as well as about 400 pages of photos and coordinating evidence of plane tickets, hotels, etc where we were together. We also did a timeline that went with the photos and other receipts, The easier you can make it for the officer to review, I think the better off you will be.
