Congratulations. I am happy for you; at least you're not one of those using this board to vent their innate frustrations in life generally. You waited on the Lord and He answered you. Goodluck.

:blink:

And so those of us who do vent...what is wrong with that??????

If I have said it once, I have said it a thousand times: There is nothing wrong with venting. That is what these boards are for. People need to release their frustrations about this process and if it means one more post about how this is all f'ed up then so be it. Not everyone deals with this process in the same way and not everyone believes that God is in control. Everyone deals with this in different ways and no way is better than another. What is wrong with people sharing their feelings here? If it helps someone deal with all this then so be it.

Well maybe when people our in our position of waiting now 176 days and not touch or answers and missing there loved ones they will understand....That is why I come here....not just for informational shareing and sharing in congrats but to get help with this roller coaster called Visa Journey......from hell.....sorry....I am trying

No need to apologize Lora :)

It's okay, Lora. I think our petitions are on the same desk! Same slow worker.

I think the feeling of helplessness and panic is directly related to the general proximity to 180 days. I was fine until I got to about 160 days, and started seeing mid-July getting approved. That's when the worry starts to hit that something's gone wrong.

We'll get there!

O.K. back on the line with my Congressman's office this morning and she talked to the floor supervisor at the VSC.....She said that my personal petition was "found"...not sure what that meant and that the supervisor was going to process those "found" with mine.....Not sure what that meant but she said "soon"...I should get an answer...So if others that came in around mine start getting approved then we can assume...I guess...that it was not in the place it was suppose to be........the case work also said that they are still "training" most of the 1500 new employees and having them working with more experienced employees so this may also be slowing them down......I ask how long they train and she said the average is 30 to 60 days.....but like all places all do not make it.......Just to let you know what I found out.....thanks guys for all of you understanding of my "complaining or whining"....I will try to do better...Lora

I have been reading and catch up today. I don't think anyone should have to feel bad about complaining or venting or whatever. It's an open forum, I guess if you don't like the complaining and venting, don't read it? I like when people vent, that way I can help or others can help and realize they aren't the only ones in the position. Just my opinion... :thumbs:

Exactly, I was completely unaware that God worked at the Vermont Service Center. Well, if he does, I hope he processes my I-129F soon or I may join a pagan cult.

Everyone here (save a handful of people who filed in September) has a right to complain. It's a message board and VERY easy to ignore complaints if you don't want to read them. I promise posts containing complaints will not continuously pop-up in a message box until you read them thoroughly.

I completely agree. I posted a response to that ridiculous comment then erased it. I am glad the both of you commented on it.

I read the comment and said WHAT!?!? I re-read it to try to understand that he or she didn't mean to say that.....started also a responde but erased it....WHATEVER!

WELCOME BACK BYRON!

I am happy to hear that Leidy is doing better, we thank God. Still no news on my side though but i will get Mel to send a letter to his congress people. VSC said we'll hear something WITHIN 60 days but it looks like they either want to wait the whole 60 days or something is wrong somewhere. However, i am happy for those once who moving :dance::dance::dance:
