Wow Virgil, I had no idea you were stil waiting too.

Geez, what's up with VSC?

Yep, I can't believe I sent them boxes of chocolates with 'thank you' written on it!!??

We got another touch today........I will believe it when I see it.....I am getting so bitter about this......I almost can not even be happy for it..... :blush:

I'll be happy for it. It hurts my heart that nobody from June has been approved in days and days and days and days. Since before the holidays at least. Still waiting on my congressman. I sent over a privacy notice they don't require just to see if that'd give them a poke. I doubt it will, and I'll have to call next, which I hate doing because it feels like I'm nagging.

But seriously, this sucks.

But I think there should be a forum party when Lora and Mirla gets theirs. :P

what's a privacy notice?

Technically speaking no one is allowed to view your case without you present for the call. It's a waiver form.

*dies* My congressperson told me that realistically this should take a year. USCIS is ####### and underfunded and if we push now they'll just ignore them. A YEAR. And I can call back in a month if I haven't heard anything.

%#*$%

umm a year??? wow. It sounds like that guy was feeding you #######. Don't the stats show that is clearly not the case??

I am APPROVED!!! :dance::dance::dance:

Receipt Number: EACXXXXXXXXXX

Application Type: I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)

Current Status: Approval notice sent.

On January 9, 2008, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

I am happy and sad at the same time. Happy that I am approved and can finally move on in the process and sad at the same time because there are so many people that are still waiting and have been for a long long time :crying:

I will still be active here, because I dont have anything else to do, so if there is anything anybody wants me to still do (letters, chocholates, poop, :devil: etc) just let me know.

Woo HOOO!!! :dance::dance::dance:

As a side note, I tried to call using the RFE trick today because I thought I might be getting close with all the Sept filers approved lately, I couldnt get a RFE person and it kept kicking me to cust. service so I tried back about 10 times and still couldnt get a hold of one so I just let it take me to the cust service people. This is at 430pm CST. The cust serv rep told me that my case is still pending and I was still in the 6 month timeframe. She added they are currently working June 19th petitions. I check the CRIS website at 730pm CST and it shows approved. Shows what they know.
