I am sorry to hear that you are having a stressful time with the visa process.

I myself applied for permanent residence, but I found that the cases of other people who applied at a similar time were approved much earlier,
and
I applied much earlier, but the immigration process was very slow, so I missed a lot of timing, which, when I think about it now, was quite stressful. I think it was very stressful.

Since the work of the immigration office does not concern many Americans,
I think it is difficult for the public to voice their criticism of the slow process.
One thing that could be tried might be to request a petition from the elected congressman of the state in which your fiancé lives.
For example, the legislator's page below says that if you meet the USCIS expedite criteria, we can help.
I'm sure you've done all you can since you are handling this through your lawyer, but I thought it might be helpful.

♯ 2 Thank you.

Actually, I had told him about the senator before,

but he was not very enthusiastic

because he had applied for the visa through his lawyer.

But it has been some time since then, so I will push him again.

Thank you for your valuable time.

13年前ですが私も婚約者ビザで入国したものです。
私の場合11ヶ月かかりました。
夫が軍人さんの場合はかなり早く受理されるそうで、
周りの人と比べて当時焦りと不安だったのを覚えています。
しかしビザが降りない人はまだ見たことがありませんのでご安心を。

私は追加で付き合っている証拠写真とエピソードを書類にして送りました。
早く降りる事願ってます。

Nice to meet you. I too entered the country as a K1. I applied through my lawyer in January 2018, and during the process, I received a letter of insufficient evidence Ǿ(I forgot the name of the notice), I asked my family members to write letters as witnesses, one from my side and one from his side, collected photos from when we were dating again and submitted them with details about when and where they were taken, and so on. We were interviewed and approved in December of the same year. I started the process in November of the previous year, so I had to wait a year. I understand your frustration and anxiety. I can't inquire anywhere, he doesn't take it seriously, and I fight with him about why he wants additional documents when I have a lawyer ？. I've broken my heart many times, thinking I should just break up ？. But the documents have been accepted ？ If there is nothing in the past that would violate the law, I think I will get out ！ I understand your anxiety very much. Even if you enter the country as K1, you will have to wait another year to get your green card. Even if you enter the country with a K1, you will have to wait another year to get your green card. You need money to go to school and other communities, to make friends, and to do anything you want to do. Staying at home all the time will also cause you to fight with him ！ I mean, I did 🤣 going to school is reassuring because you can make friends who are in similar situations and exchange information. I am sure you will be out soon ！ Good luck.

In my case, I did it by myself without a lawyer ！
My husband was in Hawaii and I was in Japan, and my application was approved and I was able to travel to Hawaii within a few months.
I can't say for sure because the visa process and required documents change every year, but it was easy and smooth without hiring a lawyer.
I can't wait to hear from USCIS …
I hope you will be able to meet them as soon as possible.

Thanks for your comment ！
Even your military husband took 11 months?
That's a long time.

I am also preparing photos, cards, etc. for the interview.
Thank you for your encouraging words.

Thank you for your comments ！
It was a very difficult procedure.
I am glad to know that I am not alone in this process.
I am glad to know that everyone is feeling the same way.

And it costs money.
I've been scrimping and saving for a long time now ！
If I can make it to Hawaii, I'm going to try to get out there
volunteering, going to school, etc.

Thanks for the advice.

#7 Mr. Mei

You did it by yourselves without hiring a lawyer ！
I also researched on the net and thought we could do it by ourselves, but
we asked a lawyer we know for his strong request.

Yes, it seems that every year the application process and required documents
change.

Thank you for your support ！.
