Vermont USCIS & Russian application

[Paul_Sasha 4]

As you can see from our timeline, we are stuck from July 27th (receipt notice) & 29th NOA1 and no word from USCIS currently. Looking through and sorting through the data on this site, we can see no one close to us on time scheduling.

We were 'touched' twice - latest Oct 3rd. And have been praying fervently for Sasha to be able to be here by Christmas. Even my 10 year old cannot wait for her arrival. Any advice from senior members or recent NOA approvals from Russia & Vermont ? She already has Police records, Birth certificates and other things, translated with an approved and notarised translator. Last thing should be the medical in Moscow and interview after NOA2.

Is there anything additional that we can do to expedite the process?

Are there any recent NOA 2s issued form VT. ?

Also our local Senator who has been tracking the case asked me the other day how we doing, I told him what I saw -- no approval as yet, will this go against me (he's not a democrat) ?

Sincerely and prayerfully

Paul

There is nothing you can do to expedite the process of approving your petition unless the US Citizen has an eminent military deployment order. If there was, everybody would do it and it wouldn't be and expedite.

You have to just play the waiting game like the rest of us. After looking at the timeline of a couple of people here i can say VSC is working on the last few June fliers and early July fliers ....all the best your time will come soon !

Senator inquirys will do nothing (good or bad) for a case within the nrmal time frame. Yours is. It is only about 3 months. well within the 6 month estimated timeframe for I-129f's. AFTER that time a Senator's inquiry may knock it off the fence, before then, he is just being polite.

There is no way to expedite except the previously mentioned military exception.

many thanks for the responses, especially Gary and Alla. (I like your note - what happens in Vermont stays in Vermont - but we need our approval from Vermont office ) I hope it does not stay in Vermont ! ) We are waiting with patience and hoping we managed to cross all the "T"s and dot all the "I"s. Fedex were very useful for us, glad Sasha lives in Saint Petersburg as service was great.

I am so thankful too, that we are assigned to Vermont, they seem to run a tighter ship, more timely and more efficient operation. Also, this website has made a huge difference to our information flow. THANK VISA JOURNEY !

We will update our timeline as soon as we have movement. For the moment, looks like I should plan to fly to Russia for Christmas to be with my future nevesta. Thank God for yahoo video conferencing too.

It is TRUE. Vermont is, indeed, "the happiest place on earth!"

Good luck. Be sure to check out the Russia/Ukraine/Belarus subforum in the regional forums...it is also the best by far!
