I didn't see one so I figured I'd start one. I'm new to this place. 


Here's my story. 

Been in the US since I was 13 (2004). 
Served in the Army for six years after high school.

Was given my citizenship in the Army in 2011.

 

Sent out i130 for my mom on the 9th of June 2017

Received Acceptance email on the 19th of June 2017. 

Case routed to Potomac.

 

Anyone know anything about these guys?

I wrote a very elaborate cover letter. My mom is severely ill with diabetes and needs treatment, and also, my sister just had a baby in May of this year and we need my mom here. Additionally, I explained my anxiety and depression and how it's affected me since I've been separated from my mother. It affects my ability to focus on anything and I'm so sad and anxious all the time and I suffer from dis-associative disorder. I lost a new job today (literally 4 hours ago) because of this. I'm disassociated because I just want to be home with my mom and brother. My mind isn't here anymore and I don't want to be here. I just want my mom. I'm 26, have never dated, never really done anything...Just waiting for my mother, and waiting. My father screwed things up a lot and has strung us along and hasn't even done anything.

A "very elaborate letter" will not speed along your case.  From what you are saying it sounds to me like you should head back to Nigeria with your mom.  Both to help your ailing mom and yourself.   You say you don't want to be here...then go back home to your mother.

First of all, thank you for your sacrifice in serving our country!  

I'm sorry things have been so difficult for you.   You could try an expedite but without severe medical issues with yourself and documented proof (such as from a counselor/therapist/psychiatrist) you may not be able to get the expedite, but it's worth a try!  You can call USCIS and request one if you'd like to try.
