I remember the first few times I navigated this site. I received an RFE and I was wingin it. I really needed help. Thank God for this treasure trove of information. After a couple of days I was armed with the information I required. Believe me, I know how some of you must feel. The entire process is mind boggling, but with a lot of help from the 1000s of users here the light in front of you will get clearer and not seem like an oncoming freight train. I don't know about all of the additional hurdles Bone Spurs has put in your way. But, the law is the law and you MUST stay within them. In 5 years, you will laugh at yourselves for over stressing. Stay focused on the process and your loved ones. If I can do it, I know all of you can too. You should tell all of your family and friends about this valuable website. Information is key in this mission you have been given. From the filing of the I-129F right up until the moment my wife and kids were naturalized. You can't let up. Never Give Up. Your loved one will be walking across that stage to be given that Naturalization Certificate. Just remember why you are doing it. You ask yourself "Why am I beating myself up over this"? Remember the prize. Your family will be so proud of you for doing what it takes. That is called the American Spirit, unlike no other. You are navigating a convoluted process. You most certainly be intimidated. But, this is a fight you can and must win. You will do it. You just will, Good Luck to all of you. And God Speed!!!
