I was told the same thing....I tried to call that number and it did not work either....I can't remember what I did, but I kept trying
different menu's and I finally got hold of a person who helped me get to someone to fill out an expedite form....
she said that due to my history that I could file as USC error...which I did and she then she told me that I would hear in
5 business days....I did hear in 2 days and was turned downed saying that I did not "qualify" for an expedited form"

I do not what else to do at this point....you can see our timeline for explanation of our process...

Nothing else to do but wait....although I would love to call but I know that I would probably just wind up being more frustrated.



I hate these people. I called today to ask them to do an expedite and they told me I wasn't in an emergency situation, and nor was I miltary so, tough sh*t.

WHy do they tell you you can, if you cant?

I just have to wait .. forever apparently.


WHAT BULLSHIT! I can't believe this is happening. Why can't they just friggin organize themselves? Oh wait, that would take THINKING!!!!

I am STILL waiting on my interview date. Haven't heard anything since I sent in my packet 3. Ugh...will this ever end?

I am with you....this is exasperating....I have contacted a Senator....allready tried a congressman and got no where...
they said they normally got a response in a week from the time of their inquiry....we will see...
I know it is not any consolation but at least yours has been handled once....we have not heard anything since the transfer in
October....

You are correct....you really can't believe what they say...but maybe it was and maybe you will be the first on the
stack and it only takes 15 min. to adjudicate an application...so it could be today!!!!!!!!!

I know it is hard to trust any of these people at this point, but that sounds like pretty good news to me. I hope they do put it on the fast track!!! Hang in there!

It's amazing the bad luck you had to lose your original priority date of may, then you get a new july priority date which they started processing in september but you turn out to be one of the lucky 10% in a month who get left behind wacko.gif
Any normal operation would have told you sorry we screwed up will do yours right away, but they actually made it worse!?!



charlene
YEAH!!!! A normal person would think so...and we try to correct the problem....but hey...where are the
normal people in this system??????? I haven't been very fortunate with this!!!!

I did fax info to another state senators office....but the lady who I talk with yesterday would not be back in the office till
Friday.... think I will call on Friday and plead with her to email VSC ASAP....

Better yet...I would like to get the NOA2 notification tonight!!!!!!!!!! kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif

VSC can't stop surprising me....it is unbelievable! Lora, it was very nice to meet you and stay strong and positive!!! If it was assing to an officer, I'm sure you will have your approval very very soon!!! Don't lose your faith!!! I know that this waiting it is taking forever, like it was for me but it finally came true.....

Well...I broke down and called the USC this morning....I did not go the RFE way I called and kept punching menus till I got the
one that stated "if you have a problem etc...." and I went that route..,

The lady I talked with was very kind and she was apologetic about the situation we were in and she
filled out a "service inquiry" while I was on the phone....and she sent it to Vermont and then she said....
"We have to say that you must wait 30 days for the response, but they normally send out a response sooner...15 days"...
and then I asked her what this inquiry would do...

She said that there is a special officer that handles inquiries and he was required to find (handle) the file, look at it and
send a response about the case to the person.

Well...we will see what happens....I will keep everyone posted.... wacko.gif whistling.gif wacko.gif whistling.gif

Yeah I did that the other day, but I didn't get the impression they have to MAKE A DECISION... just tell you what's going on. Which is to say, we're slow, and would rather play spinny chairs and color with crayons. >.<

Here's hoping though, right?! *sigh*

Well...I broke down and called the USC this morning....I did not go the RFE way I called and kept punching menus till I got the
one that stated "if you have a problem etc...." and I went that route..,

The lady I talked with was very kind and she was apologetic about the situation we were in and she
filled out a "service inquiry" while I was on the phone....and she sent it to Vermont and then she said....
"We have to say that you must wait 30 days for the response, but they normally send out a response sooner...15 days"...
and then I asked her what this inquiry would do...

She said that there is a special officer that handles inquiries and he was required to find (handle) the file, look at it and
send a response about the case to the person.

Well...we will see what happens....I will keep everyone posted.... wacko.gif whistling.gif wacko.gif whistling.gif



Yeah I did that the other day, but I didn't get the impression they have to MAKE A DECISION... just tell you what's going on. Which is to say, we're slow, and would rather play spinny chairs and color with crayons. >.<

Here's hoping though, right?! *sigh*


Did you get a service inquiry sent in also???? If so, what date? We will watch this together and see what happens.

I did that yesterday also.....the lady was also very nice.....keep saying "oh my this has been a long time......I am sorry....but with the rfe I have to wait 30 more days".......Oh well at this point what can a person do......My real problem has always been the strain this has put on Os and I as a couple......I have been married before and know the strains of separations....my first husband was military......it can take an awful toll.......I just keep hoping for the best and believing in our love for each other

Hello Everyone..

It's been awhile since i have posted on visa journey but just wanted to share the good news we have recieved to everyone. Maybe this post may help out those who are waiting to recieve a visa for their loved ones.

I originally filed the I-129F back on sep 5th and recieved our NOA 2 on December 28th. I had originally planned a trip to see my fiancee on January 22nd and ever since i have been here since that date things have gone so fast that we have recieved our VISA smile.gif

I got here on the 22nd of January in the mindframe that i will have a little vacation with my loved one, her family, see panama, try to get an interview date and go back home to the states. However, when we went to pick up packet 3 from the consulate, the lady was soo nice she asked up to come back the next day and turn in all the paperwork so she can give us an interview the following week. We went bak the next day and she assigned us an interview for the 30th of jan and told us to go do the medical straight away so they can recieve the results by the interview date.

The consular lady was happy with the fact that we were punctual and precise with our paperwork and that we had everything organized. We did as she said and went for the interview yesterday and got our visa. We were only asked a few questions such as, what kind of work does the petitioner do and asked her to explain what was happening in our pictures. Other than that it was pretty simple. I was there with her for morale support thinking they will want to ask me questions also, but they did not care about me. smile.gif

we are so happy that this part of the journey is almost over and are more than happy to begin the next one (AOS), which im not worried about. All in all it took us less than 5 months for everything, which i am still shocked about.

Everyone has been a great on here and it has been a great help reading all your posts day in, day out.

signing out..

I put mine in on Wednesday. With the world's ditziest Customer Service Rep. She asked for my alien registration number. I had to tell her I wasn't; an alien. *sigh*

But, i was assured by another rep that she did actually do it, so. Small favors. Still no touches though. Its seriously depressing to STILL see Last Updated: 6/14/07.

I don't know. I try not to look because I'll get discouraged about the additional wait on the other end.... But maybe poke your nose over to the regional forum? The UK forum is full of friendly people smile.gif
