I don't even have the words anymore, Sara. :(

If you called again this afternoon you'd probably get an entirely different answer.

I wish I could send you some more strength to get through this. You have such deep faith and great support, I do hope that helps carry you through this. If there is something you need or something you think we could help with please just ask and i'll be more than happy to do my part on your behalf.

Sweetie, this treatment is unconscionable and unfathomable. Long ago, they should have made a decision one way or the other.

We here love you and care about you. I agree with the others that you should get on a plane to be with him.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

I am also sorry for you Sara!

It's been ridiculous to see what they are doing to you! :angry:

There should take a decision now; they are people too, they could understand in what situation there are putting you into!

If I was you, I would also take a plane. You defenitly need to be with each other!

Good luck Sara! I keep you into my thoughts... (F)

I'm so sorry Sara, I understand your feelings of hopelessness. It is probably best for you to go to be with you man, he needs you as much as you need him right now. My prayers are with you both.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I can't imagine the pain for all this waiting.

Call again and see if you get the same answer.

Honestly, I'd be figuring out how to get on a plane and stay for several months or longer. They can delay your petition, but don't let them delay your life.

I am so sorry to hear what you're going through.

Ever since I first saw your timeline a few months back I've always been hoping that I see your "we got our NOA2"-post. I can only imagine what a nightmare this must be for you. Like some other VJers said, I would try to get the case in the media.

This is unbelievalbe and heartbreaking at the same time. My heart goes out to you Sara!

Whether you decide to go to see your fiance now or not, all I can say is that I hope you find the strength to get through this.

In every difficulty lies an island of opportunity.
