grace and thomas

Whoaa ... congrats ! ... many best wishes for you both.

well, you don't know how to count then, it's goin 8 months. i don't have ill feelings towards DACA Filers too, and i know that KARMA thing, maybe you should read also about it deeper and try to search more about it online.. ha ha! MAYBE it will be applied to you too.. im not perfect and im also a sinner too, i don't need to act as if everything is ok, even God gets angry too! and i think your not reading about other's posts here! WE ARE ALMOST IMPATIENTLY WAITING FOR THE ANSWER FROM USCIS! duh!

for me, it was a good thing that they didn't include I-129F coz it means they're workin back on it.

With all due respect, I don't think you understand the reason for our frustration.
The people we talk to when we call USCIS are in a call center. They are not retrieving our files and diverting time away from the processing because they are not the people working on our files. Calling is not delaying the processing of applications in anyway.
The reason we are all upset is because of the lack of information and blatantly false information. When we July filers filed our petitions, we were told there was an average of 5 months for processing at CSC (though it was very common for approvals within 3-4 months). I patiently waited for a decision for 5 1/2 months before I tried to inquire on what was occurring as I had heard nothing and had not received an RFE. We are upset because many of us are at 7 months with no word since the day we filed. We would be fine with waiting if we would be given an accurate estimate of expected approval, reasons for the delay, or even a small update on our file, such as they are waiting for X paper from Y office. But that is not the case. No one will even pull up our case or tell us why it has not been approved or if they have even looked at it. No one will tell us truthfully when we can expect a response. If we call we are told "Wait __ weeks and you should have a response." We then wait, and when we haven't received a response, we call and are told to wait more and that we should hear within that time. Many of us have no problem with being patient or waiting our turn. But we are sick of being told excuses and contradicting information. We just want an honest timeline or answer as to why there is such a delay. They are clearly not on July 18 applications - it is a line they are told to say. And if for some odd reason they really are stuck on July 18 after two months, that is very alarming.
And that is the other reason why we are upset. There is clearly a dramatic decrease in the number of applications for fiance visas being approved/processed at CSC in the last few months. Movement appears to have almost came to a complete stop. CSC has not stated the reason for the sudden drop in processing or the cause. If we were given a reason from CSC, or if it seemed that they were actively working to process applications and rectify the delay/backlog, many of us wouldn't upset.
