My case was pending since Aug 2022 with DOS. 
 
	I filed a writ of mandamus in Nov 2023. Court issued summons on Nov 4 and per my lawyer they were sent on Nov 9, but the USPS delay caused them to be served on Nov 27.  
	Meanwhile, on Nov 8 I received an email from DOS to send all the application material again via email  including the receipt 3035. ( already sent with original application) 
	Only reaction from DOS has been an email on Dec 20 stating that they have received the 3035( as a response to my email reply on Nov 9).  
	My online status still says pending due to requested documents.  
	 
	I am not sure how much longer they will take but my entire life is at stake.
