DAY 164 and nothing yet..... :crying::crying:

SOON

Byron, my Byron, So dear, sweet and strong,

This wait will soon end, together you belong.,

Right by your side, is where she will be,

Together forever, jsut wait, you will see.

This process is long, it takes up your time,

But soon enough all things will be fine.

So just get on your knees, pray to up above,

Soon you shall be, together with your love.

Hang in there Byron...we are all with you.

awwwwwwww....that was so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know what kills me....every day that passes without an approval is a day of having less of a chance of spending the holidays with Leidy and her son who im dying to hide presents all over the house and give him a Christmas like he has never had before!!!! :(

In its own time Byron that will happen. Its in Gods timing. Remember that. Everything has a reason...everything. I know it hard to understand. Why not take the opportunity to be creative about it. What is the holidays about? Is it about WHEN we have it? or WHO we spend it with. I"d keep up your tree and keep the presents exactly where they 'd be till the day they arrive, if not before the holidays..then have "your own" holiday time to celebrate. Thats what's important..that she is here. Your love is strong. YOU are strong. Just stay focused on whats importa nt...your love and relationship. Nothing else matters..not even VSC. In the grand scheme of life...you have many many holidays to share...God willing. Stay focused on the light at the end of the tunnel...and hang in there..it will all work out just the way God intended.

Every day that passes is also one day CLOSER to their arrival.

afterforever .....amrssnowangel......you both are always so encouraging...THANK YOU ....from the bottom of my heart!!! You know its just that at times as i sit here alone watching TV but actually not really watching cause im thinking about this whole process and thinking..." i have someone i love so much, why is it so difficult tobe with her" but this process has taught me something i have never had....patience.....I know that God willing i will have many holidays with Leidy and Daniel , but during the holidays i absolutely love giving and especially when im with somebody...being alone is a little depressing, even more so nowing i have someone and not being able to be with that person.

Congratulations to patrick_r and Bob & Kim. :)

Sorry about the RFE Mirla. :( I hope it will be something easy and they get it to you quickly.

I do have one question for the group though.... If we can't call the RFE line and ask them about why an RFE was issued, what exactly is the RFE line for? Are they willing to do anything to help someone who has received an RFE?

Nope, I called twice today to find out about the RFE and they wouldn't tell me a thing. It's pretty much a line to let you know you have an RFE. Well Duh! I know I have an RFE! I don't need you tell me that. I want you to tell me what it's for. That's thinking for ya.

SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH ...BUT IT IS UNDERSTABLE I AM BULGARIAN ;-)))) PROMIS WILL GET IT BETTER WHEN I AM THERE :-))) I WILL POST FOR ALL OF YOU A SONG FROM BULGARIA:

If two souls go together

On a long trip,

They wouldn't stop

Even if there isn't a road.

They'll tread this Earth close by,

Oh how I wish not to be alone.

If two souls decide to seek a way,

A fire is kindled in them for life,

It sparkles brightly

In darkness and sorrow,

Oh how I wish not to be alone.

If two souls share a destiny,

If they fight a common battle,

They will lie pure in the earth,

Oh how I wish not to be alone.

ANYMORE THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU DIANA /ALAN IS WORKING NOW ;-)))/

Amrssnowangel, I have to say that your last posts to Byron really touched my heart!!!!!!! I was also thinking about the holidays....

Thanks for asking that Bill and for answering Jamie, I was thinking about that today. I did call USCIS customer service but as usual, they don't know....but can I ask if it was already being sent and when?

It's so stupid!!!! It will make thing easier for them to tell us about the RFE through the website and move our @sses fast to go get what they need???? Why do we have to wait for a letter??? Don't you all agree??? I know it's formality and ####### but they could also show it on the website. VSC!!!! That letter better get to Harrison fast!!!!! :angry:

Yes, it's truly stupid why we have to wait for a letter. Send us an e-mail or something, although the way they mess things up half the time people probably wouldn't get it anyway. They should be updating their website soon to include their new motto: "USCIS, we could try harder, but why?"

Byron, I know how you feel about being alone. I am in the same situation as you are. It seems even more depressing during the holidays because you see everybody together. Hang in there because we will be with our loved ones soon.

The holidays kill me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel so lonely, and even worse knowing that i have someone....last year was my first Christmas alone in like 9 or 10 years, the only reason it wasnt so bad was because i had been in a horrible relationship, but this year if this isnt done by then, im flying down to be with Leidy and Daniel Christmas and New Years!!!!
