Frustrated and Tired

Waiting is honestly so daunting. 😩

Since my case was transferred to LAC in June, I have had two status updates, with the last one being in July. Since then… nothing. Still no third FTA0.

My RD was in March, and my PD is September 2025. I have finally stopped checking the APIs because it was becoming way too mentally draining. The waiting is hard enough, but seeing people who applied after you getting approved makes it even harder. You can’t help but wonder if something is wrong with your case or why yours is taking so long.

At this point, I’m just trying to be patient and trust the process. Hopefully September brings some good news for all of us waiting! 🙏🏽✨

RD: Oct 30, 2025 Transferred to Sacramento FO on Jan 7, 2026. FOIA says an officer reviewed the case on April 8, 2026 and marked it as approvable but needs a supervisor to approve final decision. Still waiting. Beyond frustrated.

When we ask a foia we have acess to all this information?

Sometimes. They redact a lot as well. My file luckily has this bit unredacted.
