Hello,

Don't lose hope. Just keep trying to contact your Senator, State Representative, and the Ombudsman.

Congratulations! to AliciaBenCampbell and so sorry you had to wait 1 year and 7 months, wow!

Hope the rest of you get your approvals soon.

God Bless!

Hello All,

We wanted to share the good news. We finally got our approval on June 25, 2015. The actual letter of approval, Notice of Action 2, came in the mail today. All in all, it took 361 days to receive our approval. We basically got our Senator, the Ombudsman, and our Representative involved. We believe it was probably a combination of Senator John Cornyn's inquiry, the Ombudsman, and Representative John Culberson's inquiry that prodded USCIS to move along with our case. We now look forward to a speedy rest of the journey.

My Fiancé and I wanted to thank all of you who replied with kind words of encouragement and advice. We also wanted to thank the VisaJourney community for the wealth of information and all the helpful guides / how-to's on this site.

We sincerely hope and pray that those who have been waiting for their approval for a long time will get their approval soon. Get the right people involved and don't lose hope.

Hello All,

Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. My Fiancé and I wish for the same speedy resolution for those in our situation. We also feel sorry for those who have waited much longer.

Thank you for sharing your experiences. At least we feel that we are not alone, although we wish that no one have to go through this.

Thank you for the good advice. We will email the Ombudsman and also write to our Senator / Congressman.

Hello All,

Just wanted to share our experience with applying for a K1 Visa (I-129F).

My Fiancé and I are now at 300 days and counting for an NOA2.

http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=days+since+July+3rd+2014

Received our NOA1 on July 3rd, 2014.

Received an email stating that a 'recent processing action has been taken on your case' on December 9th, 2014.

Filed a General Inquiry via phone with USCIS on February 17th, 2015. This inquiry still has not been assigned for processing as of today.

Emailed Texas Service Center 'TSC.NCSCfollowup@uscis.dhs.gov' on March 17th, 2015. Still no response to this email as of today.

Submitted an 'Outside Normal Processing Time' Online Case Inquiry on April 9th, 2015. This inquiry still has not been assigned for processing as of today.

Emailed USCIS Headquarters 'scopsscata@dhs.gov' on April 20th, 2015. Still no response to this email as of today.

Physically went to an InfoPass Appointment at the USCIS Center in Houston, Texas on April 24th, 2015. The officer said that "I see that you have been waiting for a while, but unfortunately your case is still pending." "There doesn't appear to be any negatives or red flags on your case." "There is a serious backlog." He could not provide any more information. He then said that he would send a message to the Texas Service Center regarding our case.

Only other options left to explore are contacting a Senator / Congressman or http://www.dhs.gov/case-assistance.

Very frustrated.
