Hope you were able to travel to see him. I travelled to Bosnia in October 2020 through Istanbul with no issues. Just had to make the Covid Test timeframe work out for arrival in Sarajevo.

Our Case was just received at the US Embassy in Sarajevo today. Can't believe how fast our case is moving now after the long wait we had after our RFE was received on 10/30/20 to our NOA2 on 1/29/21.

@Greenbaum do you have any information on the P3 for Bosnia/Herzegovina?

Today is 90 days since our RFE documents were received. I called USCIS on Monday, 1/25 and the agent said yes it is definitely out of normal processing time. She did not see any additional information than what I can see online. She put in another inquiry but put it under "other" because it was still stating there was a pending inquiry.
I know we could receive an answer any day. I just feel we have truly waited our time.

Good luck! We’re rooting for you!
Thank you! We did the same thing using the human approach with our RFE documents. We are 22 years apart but I am very thankful for your encouragement! I will keep everyone posted:)

Sorry for the long rant... Feeling so anxious these past few weeks. My fiancé and I have been waiting so patiently for an answer on our petition. We video chat and text many hours a day. Our relationship is great but this waiting gets me more worried each day.

It has now been 81 days since our RFE Documents were received.
Our RFE had two parts
1. Intent to Marry - they didn't like our basic letter everyone else uses
2. He was denied a Tourist Visa to the US 3 months before we submitted our application (his country does not provide many tourist visas for younger males). USCIS was questioning how he was a good friend then but became my fiancé 60 days later when we were in person in January 2020. In our RFE, we actually had to provide documentation of how our relationship evolved and Intent to Marry. We submitted letters from his mom, his grandma, my mom and my oldest son. We each also wrote another Intent to Marry letter. We included more pictures, hotel receipt, passport stamp and boarding pass from my trip to see him in October 2020. We included wedding plans and items already purchased including my dress. Lastly, we included chats and call logs to show we are in a "bona fide relationship".
I submitted an inquiry on 12/15 but it was not assigned an inquiry number until 12/28 with the generic email stating our case should be adjudicated in the next 45 days. I also contacted my congressman and provided them with authorization to check into our petition last week.
Anyone have any insight for me. It is very sad to say I am prepared for the worst but still praying our petition will be approved. We provided EVERYTHING that is required for a petition to be approved. It is sad to think that USCIS looks at our age gap and me being older than him as a negative thing because we don't even see the age difference; we just know we love each other.
Anyone who reads this please pray for us. I really want to get married with my children and parents present here in the US.

Update time, March filer friends!
Things are slowing now for March, but there is still progress as April makes faster and faster headway.
As you can see, RFEs are starting to decrease, and there were almost 80 March approvals this week. That's almost 2,500 K-1s approved, at NOA2, that were filed in March.
Good luck if you're still waiting. Chase the USCIS if you haven't heard, ask questions about your RFEs if you're unsure. Stay safe and keep positive.
(please remember to remove the photo, if you reply to this post)
This makes me so sad because I’m still waiting on them to check my rfe and they completely skipped over me and started processing April filers
Stay patient. All of our time will come. It has been 53 days since our RFE response was received. We were praying for good news before Christmas but it is all in God's time. Video chats daily as always:) Love will conquer all!!
***Edited: Guess I should have kept reading before replying. Congratulations on your approval:)

Those of you waiting for your NOA 2 after responding to a RFE... Are you feeling anxious? Today is day 41 since our RFE Response was received. I know it is a waiting game but like everyone, we are excited to move on with our lives. Truly praying for NOA 2 before Christmas. Oh what a great Christmas present that would be!

I use TurboTax so I can just print my tax returns myself. When you filed your taxes, didn't you get a copy of your return? I believe that is what they are asking for not a transcript from the IRS but the actually Tax forms you filed. I could have missed something in your messages though:)

Bosnia Embassy
Visa Interview April 19, 2021
Visa Received in hand April 22, 2021
Arrived in the US April 28, 2021
Once the case arrived at the NVC, it moved very quickly. Most steps took about 2-4 weeks each.
So happy to have my squirrelie here in the US with me!!!!
