Hey Erica Congrats to you too and the same day!!! Aren't you dying to know where they found our petitions? Maybe in the corner of a car trunk of one of those work from home adjudicators??!!

packet was sent to the wrong blame embassy and now they are not sure if they can "catch it".....what in the heck that means
to our processing time I do not know!!!!!!!!

Why the few of us have had all the trouble is amazing. wacko.gif wacko.gif

You should see something along the lines " On ____ we sent you a request for additional evidence...." but you will only know what the RFE is for once you get the letter in the mail.

Big Congrats to Virgil & Ric.... Someone must have 'misplaced' your files. What a nightmare. I'm so glad you're done with the VSC. Best wishes for a speedy remainder of the process!

Lora... I don't even have words for you my friend. sad.gif It seems there is a different answer/result for each person you talk to there. So perhaps it's just another uneducated one blowing smoke out their @ss because they really don't know what else to say. If there is anything I can do on your behalf just say the word. Keep us posted.

What I was told was that the DOS number was supposed to be used for after your petition leaves NVC. DOS has a computer link with the embassies and NVC, but the NVC does not link up to the embassies. I dont think they oversee the NVC, but hell girl, it cant hurt to call them too. For what it is worth, they screwed up my petition too. Didnt make the benificiary address change and they sent the Packet 3 to the wrong address. Once they send the packet, my embassy will not send another one, no matter whos fault it is. So, I feel your pain.

I believe DOS is the only office that can help you right now. I mean, they'd be the most efficient option, I think. And of course we all know they aren't that efficient, but you should give it a shot. If only these organizations still communicated by telephone. How fast it would be to put the pieces together. They really make me nuts with their ridiculous protocol, so ancient. Stubborn @sses. You might have to bug the crap out of them but eventually they'll figure out how to put everything back together again. There's no reason for them to force you to start over, from the info you've given. I just can't see that. but you are the last person who deserves this right now. Not after all you've come through. But you're super strong and WILL make it through this too. No doubt.

Congratulations to you and Ana. kicking.gif Hopefully the rest of the journey will be much quicker.

Here is a possible list that might make Letterman's top ten list.

Where was Virgil's petition at for 8 months?

10. Was received but was used as winter insulation in their walls.
9. The weight of all the July filer petitions caused a floor to collapse mixing all the files.
8. Was taken home to be worked on, but person went into a coma. Just now recovered.
7. Put in a locked desk but , Curley, Larry and Moe forgot the combination.
6. New hire was given file but was later deported.
5. Used as a cushion for taking naps between approvals and became a favorite for all to use.
4. Was in adjucater suitcase on Southwest flight and became lost luggage. Note, luggage was finally found but not adjucater.
3. Janitor was using it as a step latter.
2 The gang at VSC finally sobered up from New Years and realized June does in fact comes before November.
1. New England fan was working it and paying more attention to them until Patriots got beat.



Thanks, and nice list. Maybe I should appoint you the new head of my sarcastic thread "VSC, the V stands for cluster@#%$". I'm retiring smile.gif

Here is what I am thinking....
  1. This might not be as bad as it sounds. Hopefully the processing she referred to is the standard NSC processing that normally only takes a few days. It could be that your petition is on the way back to Peru already.
  2. It could be that whatever it is that NVC adds to the USCIS package was not done the first time or was misplaced. Thus they need to do it again.
  3. By all means call DOS. They often have better information regarding what is happening at NVC then one receives from NVC customer service. It can't hurt to call and ask, and complain also.
  4. NVC is part of DOS.
  5. I also suggest that you contact your senator or congressman again. They are already familar with your case and a call from their office to NVC might help the situation.
Good luck with this. I will be thinking of you.

Gosh, Lora -- could any one case be any more snakebitten? Maybe call your Congressman's office back and ask what materials or information you or Oscar could provide to perhaps speed the investigation. The offer may not be accepted for whatever objective reason, but at least you've asked and shown good faith by doing so.

That's kinda what I figured. But, nothing ventured, nothing gained... and your Congressman sounds responsive enough that maybe he's someone to vote for. A lot of people aren't so lucky!

If Oscar is this upset, he cares and is deeply invested in a successful outcome. As a fellow man, I respect this in him. You can tell him that a Norteamericano gringo admires his strength. (I admire yours, too!) smile.gif

Lora, I'm so very sorry to hear about your ordeal. Please don't get upset with Oscar because he got angry and said what he said. Being a foreign beneficiary myself I completely understand him. The US sometimes treats us as if we are a bunch of savages who have to be scrutinized super extra carefully...they forget that we (at least most of us) are simple regular folks with normal lives and habits, and that we are not some freaky Neanderthals sitting in caves. What I want to say is that the whole process can be very humiliating and disrespectful to the beneficiaries, and that's most probably how Oscar is feeling now.....please, don't lose hope and let him know that you love him. Don't let this bulls%38T get between you guys....

Thanks TBone......He is a really good man with a very strong sense of right and wrong.....He finds the questioning of his integrity the worse kind of insult....I am thinking this was the very first thing I admired about him.....Very perceptive of you to see that in him.......You know I think the fact that we had expected this to be so very different then it has been....that we live pretty normal average lives that are transparent....that we just wanted to be together was enough to prove we are no harm to no one but I am thinking now we were wrong..........

It is what it is........No time limit....no guarantees.......no explanations..........Oscar is so upset....

Lora my heart goes out to you, just hangin there it is nothing more than AP Oscar did nothing wrong, some times they just pick randomley and they will never give you any info till it is over, usually it takes only about 3-4 weeks. You have come a long way and you deserve it ASAP.

Congratulations Jason & Sasha. So happy for you both!

Lora, I wish I could just take you out for a drink! I'm sorry Oscar is so upset..gotta love a strong man, though! wink.gif Your love will survive this!

Are you kidding me? That is horrible! sad.gif

Something does not make sense to me. I have not heard any explanation as to why only 1/2 the package was sent to the embassy. Was that bad information? Did the embassy send the package back to NVC because the embassy wanted a complete security check and not because the package was incomplete? It seems so strange that a package should be returned to NVC because of their error and instead of quickly correcting the error and apologizing they slam it into an extended security check.

I keep thinking you still have not heard the real story. If the package was sent back to NVC simply due to a NVC clerical error and while it was there it got caught up in a random extended security check, that is bad luck beyond comprehension.

My heart goes out to you and Oscar. I wish so much that I could do something to help.

I keep thinking you still have not heard the real story. If the package was sent back to NVC simply due to a NVC clerical error and while it was there it got caught up in a random extended security check, that is bad luck beyond comprehension.

My heart goes out to you and Oscar. I wish so much that I could do something to help.



It is very odd Bill.....but here is what the Cpngressman told me.......For whatever reason it appears they pulled the petition for a full security check which was sent I assume to the FBI but the remain papers were sent to Lima......as soon as the Embassy checked on the remaining info not sent it was
discovered that it should of never been sent at all so it was sent back to NVC.....but when they do these kinds of security checks it is something that can not be messed with by anyone...not Congressman, State or NVC....so I am stuck.....Oscar is just so upset about this....we are just everyday people....doing nothing special.....I am really at the very bottom of this hole.........

OK, that makes some sense. Your package was pulled for a security name check when it was at NVC the first time and whatever went to Lima was sent in error. In reading the information on name checks it seems that the majority of them are completed quickly. Hopefully they will complete yours very soon. I will keep my fingers crossed for you.
