I am going to assume your are serious in your comments..
There is no need to have been brought here to qualify for DACA. Also it seems that ages can be fudged, especially when you are by definition undocumented.
Nothing to do with conscience, a lot to do with votes.

Regardless, the parents willingly broke the law. If my father stole to feed his children, or give them a better life, should he not have to receive punishment merely because it would affect me? Should I be given some special treatment? Who is wanting to punish the children? I'm not saying lock them up. Let them go back to their country of origin and apply for a visa legally like everyone else. If that causes major problems in their life, don't look at the U.S. govt. to bail you out. Look at your parents who got you into this mess.
And my father did not commit a crime. I was using that as an example, hence the /sarcasm. Parents do bad things all the time that affect their children. It's called LIFE.

I have to agree, this is not black and white. But no one is attacking these people. Like I said on the original post, the illegal inmigration should be addressed, it has become a big issue in the United States and the government should do something about it. Nobody is complaining about that, action should be taken, but at what cost? Those people are already in the United States, living off taxes the rest of us have to pay. It is a tricky situation, but they knew what they were getting into when decided to stay illegally. Again, I'm not attacking anybody and yes, children are not to be blamed, but giving them an special treatment doesn't help the illegal situation to stop, but encourages it. I want everybody to be able to be with their families, but the US government should start doing what it's supposed to do and stop pushing to the end of the line those cases that are being filed legally. Is that too much to ask for? I don't know everyone's story here, but wrong is wrong, no matter how you like at it.
We suffer too, we miss our loved ones in the US too, we want to be with them too, and we want to be treated with respect too. I am not saying that they shouldn't get their situations taken care efficiently, I am saying that ours should be treated the same way. Period.

US govt becomes encouraging people to break laws and punishing others who behave. Sad !!

Thanks guys... I will just refile and make sure I follow the guides on this site and include everything I can this time.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I feel a little better, maybe I can sleep more than 2 hours tonight. I still don't know why I did not find this site before, it would have saved me a lot of worrying and now hassle. Like I said, it took me a couple months before I finally mailed the form because I did not know what to do. After talking to 3 different people at USCIS, and them all tell me I just needed to send in the form, I figured I was good and if needed they would just request more info.
Now, am I better off starting over and submitting a new I-129F form and all the info, following the guide on this site, or appealing the denial?
Maybe I am just jumping the gun and need to wait until I get the letter. I am just going crazy here and needed to sort of talk to someone or get some advise.

Thanks for more replies and advice everyone. I really appreciate it.
I have already been planing the refile and looking for my chat logs and stuff. I already have filled out G-325 forms. I just did not originally include them because the different people I talked to at the USCIS said I only needed the I-129F I just wish I got her signature when I was there. Oh well... I will of course wait until I get the letter before moving forward with anything. I should have no problem proving our relationship. I don't have chat logs going back to the beginning, but I do have them going back until the beginning of 2009, along with emails, and money receipts. Not sure about call logs since I used a calling card and we did not talk much on the phone, we mostly used Skype and Yahoo Msngr. I met her and her family in June 2011, and have pics of me and her, and me her and her family. I was just there this last May, 2012 and I also have pics from then, and I even snapped a pic of the ring on her finger. I don't know why I took it, but I'm glad I did now and I will include it in the packet I send. I also have my tickets and hotel receipts from both trips, and of course my passport with stamps. I am self employed and will send a copy of my last W2 and corp tax statements. I think showing all the receipts and how I support her now should be enough to prove I can support her when she moves here and we get married.
Regarding school... education was always important to me and I stressed that to her when I first met her. I am not expecting most of her credits to transfer, but I feel the benefits of moving here before she finishes and giving her a chance to get more acclimated and build a network with classmates before jumping into the job market, outweighs needing to repeat or start over. Her field of study is IT and software engineering, which is what I do. So needing to retake classes or spending more time doing it, will just help her to better understand the subjects and hopefully learn more.
I have been reading the stuff on this site and I feel more confident about this whole process. I just wish I found it sooner. It sucks if I need to pay another fee, but the worst part is wasting 5 months. Lesson learned, nothing I can do now but move on and make sure I follow the guides on this site and include everything I can when I refile.
I will keep everyone posted and create a timeline.

Yes I read all that a few times. It says "clearly"? OK, maybe your definition of clear and mine are different. Other than the G-325A form, it talks about children and criminal background, but it does not say I need to send pictures of us together, or copies of emails, passports, or chat logs, or anything like that. The G-325A form was why I called USCIS 3 times, and they said I only needed the I-129F form. I know there is a lot to the whole process, and I figured the I-129F form was just the beginning. That form gives enough info to do an initial background check, and I would need to provide more after that.
