Thank you so much for the support! I really appreciate everyone's input. I am praying that our appeal goes through within 3-6 months and is accepted. We have an abundance of evidence that proves we are a "real" couple and have been in a relationship for over 2 years. My fiance visits every 4-6 weeks through a visitor's visa and I have traveled to England to visit him. We have so much evidence to prove our relationship and honestly, if I would have known that we were supposed to submit the entire package when we mailed the application and check, I certainly would have!!!
Again, I wish I had known of this support group before we submitted our application. It would have saved me a world of stress and anxiety, that is for sure!

I was thinking about your denial. I bet the package first goes to a person who has only one job; depositing the checks. That person probably has only a vague idea what is supposed to be in the package.
The packet probably next goes to an auditor that checks to make sure all the items are present but does not really read anything. If much of the stuff was missing, they probably thought you are not serious, so they kicked it back with a deny without even reading anything. If only one item or so was missing they would have most likely done an RFE.
I think the next person does the data entry. Again missing data will trigger an RFE.
Last the investigator, who does some quick background checks. He or she will approve, deny, RFE, or request additional investigation. I am guessing that most are approved.
I heard a rumor that if you are a veteran they expedite your request. However I do not remember anything in the form that asked if I was a veteran.
