What about those in April or even March that have not yet been approved...I know there are some still. I filed on the 4th of June...should I be upset someone who filed on the 6th was approved? No. It happens, and it will continue to happen. Your day is coming.

It's your decision whether or not you are upset. USCIS is certainly happy there is one less complainer, one less fighting for change, fighting for improvement...

I'm not saying don't be upset, but it's getting a bit old when we start complaining someone who filed after us got approved. Be upset, but be upset at the system, not those that filed. I made up my mind to not even announce when I get approved on here. Makes no sense if someone that filed before me hasn't gotten theirs and then gets upset about it.

I agree Jamie. I certainly am not upset at anyone approved before me. I am happy for them because Lord knows they have waited long enough too. I was complaining about the system, not the people approved before me that filed after me.

"Yeah, there is no sense to the way USCIS operates as shown in how they give priority to employment VISAs over us. This is the worse US Government agency ever."

Agreed!! The whining is getting old. :bonk:

This wait sucks for everyone and regardless what month we filed in - it is still seems like forever for approval. We will all be approved eventually!!!

Stay positive people!

You are right. People should enjoy their time alone now. They will not have it when they are united with their loved ones!!!! This waiting period can be a good positive thing..... :(

"Enjoy their time alone" ? sorry but we dont see it that way, we would rather treasure are time together not apart, there is nothing really positive about being apart from the person you love.

Whilst it is better to be together I don't think it is true to say there is nothing positive about an enforced separation. Admittedly there are times when I positively hate it, when I feel like a huge part of my life is missing, when it all *seems* hopeless. I have learned though, that thinking that way makes me feel ill and overwhelms my ability to be thankful for what I have. It also makes the time go much more slowly because I am constantly thinking negatively and not focussing on the great times to come.

Obviously, life is so much easier for couples who can spend every day together, making plans and enjoying each others company. I wonder, though, from past experience how much we take for granted when we can do that. Life is so much the way we want it that we never stop to think about how much of what we have is ultimately what we want. And then relationships sometimes break down.

This process has, if nothing else, made me realise how much my fiance and I want to be together. The time spent apart has made us both think in a more focussed way about what we want...because there is nothing else to fill those thoughtful moments with. He tells me what I need to hear because he truly feels it and vice versa. Had we been together this past year, perhaps (who knows) we may have taken all those feelings for granted and a part of both of us would have been less certain about the future than we are now.

I think that's the really positive thing this process delivers to us all.

I love what you said Babblesgirl!!! My guy and I say the same things to each other. With the divorce rate as high as it is, we know that we are not taking this whole wedding thing lightly. I think everyone can say that they are willing to wait as long as they have to and do whatever it takes to be with the one they love. Couples that see each other everyday tend to take that for granted. They also tend not to ' talk' as much as the rest of us probably do with our fiance's. I am grateful for every phone call, email, and actual time spent together.

Not many people could stand what all of us are doing. This process is long and painful, but the end result is more than worth it!!! :wub::wub:

I totally agree with you. It is soo painful to be apart from love one, but the result should be really positive. A lot of people around me have boyfriends and girlfriends and plan to marry soon. They can see each other everyday and do not have to go through this crazy process and financial burden. But, once we go through this, we can be very strong and happy.

Then would it okay to whine just a little bit? Maybe, once a week. Because even though eventually we will all be approved....the wait is still long.

Tanjay has been waiting since May for God's sake. He has every right to be upset with their lousy service. Give him a break! He can complain just as much as those people who cheer on USCIS despite their crappy service to US citizens while they kiss big business' @ss giving their work visas in so much less time than our loved ones and then on top of that kicking sand in our faces while not offering 15-day premium processing to us. I know I don't like crawling into bed each night without my loved one...it sucks actually...as does these weekends with little or no NOA2 approvals. Just remember just because you cheer them on doesn't mean they will be processing yours any faster.
