7 January 2022 PD - Approval - Writ of Mandamus Filed
I wanted to let anyone who sees this know that if you are beyond regular processing times and are financially in a place to afford such a large expense, don’t waste anymore time and file a Writ of Mandamus. I literally took advice from someone else on Reddit, a stranger, and I am so grateful and happy I did. So this is why I’m posting all of this, to hopefully help inform someone else that’s in a similar situation and help them find resolve and peace! From signing the contract, to having our I-130 and I-485 approved, it took a total of 22 days. Once USCIS received notifications from the US Attorney’s office, on a Monday, quite literally the next day, Tuesday, our case was approved. Additionally, the immigration office we are working with keeps our lawsuit open with the US Attorney until the Green Card is produced and delivered. The case won’t be closed until that happens. The immigration office we are working with (Hacking Immigration) charged $5k and the processing fees are $500 (government related). After trying to patiently wait for the Fairfax, Virginia FO to process our paperwork, we felt helpless and decided to go this route… 870 days later. Regarding our timeline down below - it’s all corrrct except for the RFE part. We received an RFE, but within minutes, we received another update not reflected in the timeline that stated the RFE was cancelled. Later we received the interview notification. This post is kind of all over the place, so lmk if you have any specific questions down below and I’ll try to help out where I can! #writ #writofmandamus #I-130 #I-485 #lawsuit
