We are in the exact same boat as you! We also filed on December 19th 2014. Same email stating we were under review and very little contact. My lawyer just submitted another query. I'm about to write to the congressman for our area and I will mention we are not alone. We should stay in touch and work through this together. Wish we could file a class action suit with everyone at this point!

Hey EmilyandJas,

Looks like we are indeed in the same boat. Our lawyer will file a second inquiry this week. Also, my congressperson filed an inquiry and got a response (mid September response) that only said "your case is under review" no time frame. That is the what is most nauseating. Give us a friggin' timeframe!

Hello,

We received our NOA1 on 12/19/14 and then no word almost 9 months. Our case is in the TSC. On 8/18/15 USCIS.gov timelines finally updated enough to allow us to submit an inquiry. On 8/19/15 we submitted an inquiry to USCIS through the website and we got a response to that inquiry yesterday (9/3/15 -- 259 days since our NOA1!!). It said:

The status of this service request is:

We have received your service request and researched the status of your case. Our system indicates that your case is currently under extended review and this has caused a delay in processing time. We do not require any actions from you at this time.

What You Can Do
Please see the "Online Services" below to check the status of your case in the future.

We hope this information is helpful to you.

As you can imagine, this information is not helpful at all. Quite to the contrary, it is hurtful with no timeframe. We have never received an RFE. Has anyone gotten this message before?

Thank you,

Just received the same thing yesterday for our K1 visa. Our lawyer has not really explained what this means, I hope he does today. Me and my fiancee don't have any criminal background but it may have to do with the fact that she previously filed for an F1 visa twice and was denied twice.

Have you gotten the NOA2 yet?

We are also bummed out beyond belief. Have you done the Infopass or reached out to the Ombudsman yet?

I been waiting since December 2014. It's gonna be awhile for you my friend. Hunker down. Immigration is so slow unfortunately. Make sure you keep checking Igors list
