So my husband and I had our interview October 6, 2021 for adjustment I-485 from K1. We thought everything went great until:
- The officer handed us a "file being held for review" letter.
- On November 16, 2021 we received an RFE and started preparing
- On December 13th uploaded everything onto the USCIS portal and met the deadline which was December 21st
- I waited 60 days as told then I called USCIS in January to check on things and agent confirmed he saw all evidence and send a notice to the interviewing officer to review and get back to us within 30 days
- I went to my post office and opened a letter today which was dated March 7th and it was a denial stating we never submitted the documents required by December 21st and therefore we are considered ABANDONED. (#######!!!)
- Letter also stated we can not appeal but can file a motion to reconsider I-290b.
What would you all do in this case besides the obvious which is file an I-290b. Should I create an infopass and go down to the USCIS office, hire a lawyer or??
Thanks,
