But you've been so strong for everyone else... I just keep thinking its got to be your turn so soon. (F)

I've given up going to places and seeing friends who keep asking 'have you heard'? 'any news'?

- but it has to happen sometime soon.

You're very kind, thank you. I think tonight it just stole my courage. I know there are others who are waiting longer than I have, and they should come first. But this is a horrible process. Edited by Tigerflower

UGH! Stop. At the risk of being flamed by everyone, and being a visajourney member myself, I still have to ask if you guys could keep this stuff offline and off the forum? This can't be the only way y

I can only imagine the dread that April and May filers must be thinking. The same things we did when we saw February people waiting 200 days. The denial... "Oh, surely they will catch up by us?" or th

In honor of the amazing super fast VSC rep holding our case hostage, I've written a poem. It is to the tune of "You're a Mean One, Mister Grinch". I call it, "Ode to Mister Sloth". You're a slow one,

Called USCIS hyped on cold meds, feeling brave. As soon as the guy answered my call I said, "hi I'd like to speak to a tier 2". Didn't even bother with him. Unfortunately I had to for a little bit so he would write up what the call was. He said I was in normal processing times so I reiterated, "tier 2 please" so I was transferred and waited on the line 30 minutes. Let me tell you, it was worth it. As soon as I gave the lady my receipt number, she asked if I had put in a service request. She is an immigration officer, call center workers are not. So she told me she put in a service request for me, because my 6.5 month wait was abnormal. Call center workers are clearly just another speed bump to keep people from putting in service requests. They really can't put in service requests with out a tier 2. When they say they can't, it's not a time frame issue.

I brought that up with the tier 2. I expllained how it's upsetting to hear one thing on one call and be told another thing the next call. She explained if you all and ask for an immigration officer you can get help. My service request expires the 11th of october.

The mean tier 2 rep that I got the last two times sucked. I'll try again tomorrow. I think I'll keep calling and asking for a tier 2 that will put it a service request.

Looks like you will be in the 200 club :help:

Sigh. :(

Although I must say VSC processing 10 on one day is pretty impressive. There's some hope.
