hello everyone! i am new to this website, so heres my story....i applied for my fiance visa April 12,2012... it has been 6months and i havent heard anything? i keep on calling, they told me now they are going thru March 5th applications i dont know how long it will take till they get to april 12. I am so stressed out, i cant sleep... i want this visa to be approved so i can have my fiance here with me, i miss him so much :( 2 of my good friends have brought their fiances last year and it took them 4-5 months they came in the US, it was so easy for them...!!

how long does it usually takes? they told me 5 months? :( everyone keeps telling me to be patient and wait...but it has already been 6mths, they told me i might wait another 2-3 months just so it can be approved, then of course by the time he has his interview and all it might be a YEAR :(

thank you all

much love

Europe girl ;)

How ling does it take? A long time.Stop looking at statistics. Stop looking at time lines. Stop looking at anything. Just get up, go about your business and, wham..it will be finished.

Your petition is at the Vermont Service Center, which is currently on the slow side. Quite a few VSC March filers are still waiting too. I made it close to six months when our petition got approved. Hang in there and check Igor's List: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/monthly_filers.php?form=1&visa=1&scenter=2&option=3&sortby=2
