A: If you haven't received a response about your U4U I-134A petition for over a year, it's advisable to check the status of your application. You can do this through the official U.S. government immigration website where you submitted the application. Ensure you have your receipt number handy, as you'll need it to log into your account and view any updates or messages regarding your petition.

In cases where there are no updates or the information is unclear, it might be helpful to reach out directly to the agency handling your application. Contacting them by phone or email can provide more direct insight into the status of your petition. It's also useful to have all relevant documents and information about your application ready to reference during any communications.

If these steps do not yield results, consider consulting with an attorney who has experience in immigration law. They can offer guidance specific to your situation and can assist in navigating the complexities of immigration procedures. Additionally, they may be able to contact the immigration authorities on your behalf to expedite the review process or resolve any issues that might be causing delays.
