Hi immigration.com family,
I am a Filipina petitioned by my American fiance. Our petition was approved in February 2012. I had my interview last March 2012 at the embassy. During the interview, they said they need to send back our petition to the USCIS since the record shows that the first petition by my EX-fiance is still active. My EX (also an American) petitioned me on 2009 who broke the engagement on 2010 which means I was not able to undergo any interview and no visa ever issued. My fiance now and I did not know that the first petition should be cancelled by my ex. We were also confident that the first petition (2009) wont affect the second (2011) with my current fiance since I am the beneficiary and not the petitioner. So both petitions were sent back and ours (2011) was received by USCIS-CSC on May 2012. We were told to wait 120 days which will be this Sept.2012. My medical exam is valid until September 2012.
How long does it officially take them to review returned petitions? And what could be our best next step? Any advice is highly appreciated.
Thanks and More Power!
