She will be there by March or even sooner. It’s interview time and visa about a week later. I’m seeing it all over the FB groups. 

I would imagine after 3 1/2 years most Lawyers who do WoM would tell you to sue.

I have some good news for lawsuits stuck at the NVC. My friends K-1 visa petition is being moved from the NVC to US Embassy in Manila after a judge ruled in his favor. It was a 9 month lawsuit!!! I’m so happy for him! So there is hope after all with these WOM lawsuits. Now my case may be much different but at least some cases are being pushed through. This is also a relief to know that there was no issue with his petition being expired!!!!!!!! Great news! Glory be to God!

Wait 5 years! 

I’m to far along in my case to back pedal, and I do not agree WOM are causing more delays. The government being slow and not staffing people, or attacking the work load is the real reason for delays. Covid? What about the vaccines and what about returning to normal in the work force? I go to work everyday, we work more now than ever.  Do you know in July alone the US embassy in Manila only issued 149 K-1 visa’s, with a back log of over half a million at the NVC? They have no dedication to a back log that is looking like years and years to clear. The defense ( Government ) is not doing me a favor trying to dismiss my case. They want the judge to ok a 5 year waiting plan. That’s insane! The government needs to start doing their jobs. Any of you ever pay for a service in your life or pay somebody for a resolution, and it not be full filed? Or you have to wait unGodly amount of time for the outcome to get what you need done. It effects people’s lives and quality of life. Nobody seems to want to argue that now do they? Also the courts are making a lot of money right now, $400 in court filing fees, I’m sure they are enjoying all the cases coming through financial wise. 

Again do you have any feedback on a current  Writ of Mandamus? I don’t care who posts, but obviously you have nothing better to do with your Saturday but troll on somebody who is need of some answers. You also have no validation to say the government is not messing with people’s lives. Yeah there’s Covid, I know, I had it. however, that is not an excuse to make people wait years who are qualified to be with their love ones, nor is it a reason to steal peoples petition money because they exercise THEIR right of writ of mandamus. 

Not exactly quite sure, just the standard writ of mandamus. But from what I’m reading here, looks like I’ll either lose due to covid, or I will get my visa sent back to the USCIS where I have to start all over. Which is absolutely insane because the delay has caused an expiration not me. This is also a new tactic that the NVC is using. Not the normal proceedings according to the lawyer. It is a way of taking $ and not doing their job. That’s the bottom line. A lot of people a very frustrated as all Embassies take their times to resume and blame covid. Imagine waiting years to be married to someone just because they live in another country. This is Messing with peoples lives. Facts are facts.

Ok thank you for all the replies, it appears the government wants to retaliate by keeping our $ and wasting time in our lives. Funny thing is, people that have been approved in 2021, and do not file a lawsuit, will be waiting most likely 2 years for an interview. 

For those quoting my thread, I haven't been shown anything substantial that cases are getting sent back to USCIS to die if you "win" a WoM. If you have documented cases like that, please post them. 
 
I have heard negative things in regards to the state arguing that 1-2 years isn't an unreasonable delay...and just putting you back in line. I mean I guess there are some odd family visas from terrorist infested countries where the agencies involved drag their heels for years, but it doesn't make it "reasonable" when in most cases what we're talking about is obvious K1s from the Philippines. My case is still in limbo, no updates for over two months. 
 
Personally, I find the whole situation of abandoning your post as a government official over the cerveza sickness worthy of being mocked. If you disagree that's fine. I've worked full time with the public since the outbreak, so no reason the government can't either. These are unique days, and nature abhors a vacuum. 

Consider a Utah Zoom wedding which will allow you to get married while you are physically separated, give you a marriage certificate which the Philippine Embassy will accept for issuing you a 9A visa, which will then allow you to visit your wife in the Philippines and file a US spousal visa application. Details are in the Philippines subforum.

well that’s very unfair for a lawyer to take my case if they know this is going on? If this is what happens, then I will be putting them 
on blast on google and YouTube videos. They shouldn’t take a case without asking all the details of the petition, unless of course this is something new that NVC is doing.also if this does happen then I guess I have to start all over?

Like I said I will update here in a month or so. I wish I found this forum before I filed a lawsuit. Maybe I wouldn’t have filed one. I guess worst case scenario is I go get married in the Philippines and apply for a CR-1 spousal Visa. What a joke all of this is. I have a friend pre covid who got his fiancé here within 11 months with a K-1 visa. Must be nice.

Sorry I filed in 6-10-20 sorry.
