Agree! Monday at the InfoPass meeting the girl flat lied to me. I knew it and so did she. All she said was I didn't know what I was talking about. For me the secrecy and lack of transparency is the worst.

Agreed!! Right now it seems surreal. Doubt I will be able to concentrate the rest of the day...

At least you have heard something... Probably something simple that can be corrected right away.. But, yes let me know!

Cool! Anna is from Poltava.. I have the exact same view of our government. My petition has been there since 9/4.. You would think this would be an easy thing to do.. sit on your but all day and work on approving documents.. shouldn't be overly difficult.. well, as you said.. obviously my skin is the wrong color and last name doesn't sound like it comes from south of the bord...

Don't forget.. You and Elena are right behind us!! Looking forward to seeing an approved on your timeline and soon!!!!

Hey we are in a similar boat... our timelines are very close.. How are you all doing with the wait?

Hey! Anything yet? Looking at July there are only a handful of July unapproved with dates before your submission. We are still waiting here. I will be surprise to hear before May.. CSC Sucks!! I ought to come up with a bumper sticker and patent it! LOL...

How did the infopass meeting end up today? Good / Bad / Indifferent? What did you take with you? I have everything including my copy of the K1 packet.. Thanks!!

I am right there with you.. If I do not hear anything I may head out as well. Probably spend at minimum a month. I can work from Poltava for awhile. I've written senator, congressman and also Obama. Personally think that USCIS is not holding their end of the bargain. After all, I paid my $340 to sit and keep getting put off. Terrible business and poor customer service. Besides I...

I am sure we are close.. God knows I miss my girl Trying to determine if I can leave the country for a month or so.. work remotely and spend time with her.. wait out the time in Poltava!! we will have to see...

I called NVC today .. Received my KEV number. Packet sent via DHL yesterday..

I called NVC today and was given our KEV number. Assuming Kiev designation.. Was told that Thursday package sent via DHL.. 6 days to Ukraine and processing! Anna will be happy when I tell he tomorrow!!

I completely agree!! If I didn't have my 13 yrs old I would be dropping everything and moving out of country. Really! OR Pravda as Anna & Elena would say.. At least in the Ukraine you know the government is trying to screw you.. Here we put on this façade of "do gooders and the GOBC" reality underneath it all is the same corruption as everywhere else..

I understand. Try to redirect her and focus on the end, no matter what the time frame. Does she have her international passport? If no get her on that take 3+ months and she needs for the interview. AND if you are able head there.. I would if time were not getting short.

I would stick with it.. to pull the K1 and head off towards the CR1 would mean 10 - 12 more months of waiting. the only thing I would change would be to spend more time in Ukraine - if you are able. I am waiting on hearing from my Congressman's immigration secretary.. she left me a message yesterday..

I wouldn't use the phrase freak out.. we were using Skype IM and she sent an IM of the happy face clapping and the party hat.. O.... about 100 times... LOL... she is ecstatic!! Now talks every day that she will finally be with "her little bear"..

Just Got IT!!!!!!!! While I was telling Anna good night!!!!!!!! APPROVED!!!! Good things happening at CSC!!!

Just keep the faith and be patient. Hope everything is soon.. Anna and I talk daily and spend many hours on Skype.. It sucks not being able to touch her and do those type of things.. but I know soon we will be together and we will have a lifetime with each other.. So I stay positive.. Still wish I were heading back to Poltava right now!! LOL.. Thanks for the encouraging words.

Looks like we are on a similar timeline as well.. Also not far away.. I'm off US36 near the Promanade..

Nate what is the web site? I would be interested in looking at is.. thanks

Nate.. Hey man keep the chin up! I am sure that things will start picking up. Also wouldn't worry about the cutbacks. My understanding is that USCIS is "for the most" self funded. Keep in touch I will probably be in Ukraine in May, unless something happens sooner with the approval. My understanding is 4 - 6 weeks from approval to the interview. We have all our paperwork r...

Nate.. How are you all doing on the wait? Keeping your sanity? I think I'm going crazy.. and hoping every day now to see a NOA2 come through..
