My wife and I just had our adjustment of status finished. We did it all ourselves. It was easy by following this site and reading carefully on the USCIS site. I hear lawyers only slow things down.

Manilia envelope. Put pictures in a zip lock baggy and stapled them to the page. Same thing for Photos . Copies of boarding passes ect.

I fully agree. Everyones being a little harsh.

Thanks for putting together the info it gave me something to read and had good information in it.
BTW Dont let the old timers get you down. It seems even in the visajourney site, there are trolls and jerks just like everywhere else..

I truely do not understand why someone would start a process like this and just drop it out of the blue. I guess its just a way some people are. I went into this with a strong heart and open mind. Theres no worry and we keep busy.
If he needs someone to talk to about the process or about the relationship. My fiance's country and your country is not hugely differnt. Maybe I can help.

Maybe slow down the frames that have lot sof text in them. I got distracted for 2 seconds and couldnt catch up . I agree post for both. I think we all agree things need to move faster all around.

We have the post about what to do but theres 6 or 7 pages. Can someone make a sticky post with everything to do where were sending in the letter and who to e mail?
Thanks

I said no such thing.
I am well aware of his plight. I know many people who waited months, years even. My AOS took months. A friends file was "lost" and he had to contact people to get it located. My K1 actually took longer than people after me and people before me. I felt it took forever at the time (and of course now it's a drop in the bucket).
And yes, i have every belief that emailing someone you shouldn't could result in an unexpected slow-down. OR they could move your file out to get you to back off. I didn't call NVC, I didn't nag anyone. I just waited. That said, I spent the time working to save up money because I knew it would be months before I could work. As it turned out I didn't work for a couple of years and had to return to Australia for 2 months because my dad was sick and we had to put him in a nursing home.
ROC took 6 months for me, used to take 3. For VSC it was 9 months. Citizenship for my local office says it's taking 5 months, some take only 3.
The K1 petition approval takes months, but then the rest depends on your country. Australia used to be quick but now it's taking a while to get the interview letter (and there's only 1 office to interview), Canada it can take months to get an interview, other countries get months/years of Administrative Processing after the interview.
I would not have emailed that person. I would have contacted my congressperson/senator. I would contact newspapers about the slow-down (and WHY it's slowed down). But the petition approval is just the beginning. For some people that will be the shortest part... that's hardly fair.
