Oh yes, I agree. The reason why they pushed DACA is because of the potential millions of votes that this would bring in to the politicians. It makes no other sense to put them in the front of the line, otherwise.
I don't think anyone here knew that the immigration process would take soooo long. Most of us here who are in the US who knew of people marrying foreign spouses probably thought it would be quick because of people who only need to adjust their statuses rather than bring a relative from abroad. If I knew ahead of time that it would take over a year, I probably would have planned differently. I think most of us think this way! It is crazy that a lot of countries work a lot faster. I wonder if this is done on purpose, too, or if it's just the sheer volume of people applying to immigrate to the US versus other places.

Going back to OP's other post it says "Mkay thanks but do you know how im going to remove my kid's conditional green card in the future? My kid came o the U.S. 1 year after i did. And also does it matter who files the divorce? Does it have to be the US Citizen who is my husband, for me to remove conditions?"
OP, according to your other post, it sounds like the beneficiary (your mother) was brought by her USC husband on a K1, and you are the said "kid" that came along on a K2. What is confusing is it says the USC is the husband (meaning your step-father who had petitioned your mother and thus you were able to come), and this post talks about your step-mother filing AOS for you and how your dad is the one that has the green card. Huh?!
I'm with Merrytooth on this, your post does not make sense. Something smells a little fishy.

Ask an adult to purchase you a one way ticket back home so everyone else can live in harmony. I truly believe that step-parent would gladly honor your wish on his than to be suck with 10 years hanging over their head.
Proverb Ask and you shall receive..

ya, it's very confusing.
who are you today, the 4 sentence backgrounder?

Visa APROVADA !!!!! Thanking god every moment ! Dandole gracias a mi Papa Dios que nunca me desampara !!! Thanks VJ couldn't of had done it without y'all ! will post up our experience and how everything went ! :*

Guys, I know you don't want to hear this but hang in there. I have not lived with my husband under the same roof since June 2011 (different immigration issues involving a J-1 visa, two year rule - we could not file for the IR-1 until about six months ago.)
I fight with my husband a lot and this is only lately. I also have thought of divorce and this has affected me psychologically. I missed all of my wedding anniversaries and never got to celebrate any bday with him since we got married. I can't even go out to public places without feeling anxious or depressed when I see couples together. I seriously sit there with the worst jealousy and wish that was me.
Two weeks ago, I went to the ER in the middle of the night because of an asthma attack brought on by anxiety... this never happened to me before. I was lying in bed thinking about all sorts of things - including immigration and I couldn't breathe.
It sucks but there is nothing we can do but wait. I would suggest keep bugging the senator, congressperson, the NVC, or whomever.
The only thing that keeps me going is to know that the love I share with my husband (regardless of my thoughts, which we all have) and this experience is something that very few people can go through. Just about everyone has told me "I don't know how you do it. I could never do it" which to me says "I don't love my spouse that much." In fact, yesterday, someone was complaining to me (again) about having to drive 2 hours to see a girl he's dating. And then criticized me for having a long distance relationship saying those never work. well you know what FU is my answer! And all these things serve to show me that what I have is unique and that when we are, in fact, together again, things will be better than before (after marriage counseling if necessary because let me tell you from past experience... it takes adjusting to your spouse who has essentially become somewhat of a stranger. Skype is no substitute for being together as we all know.)
I have faith that things will be better for all of us and that we can show people what love is... regardless of the turmoil our hearts feel and our relationships endure.
HANG IN THERE! <3 I am so grateful for you guys... we can all relate to each other and understand each other!

True, you are... but if it adds nothing constructive or serves to just hurt others and cause pain then what is the point of posting it? Let people vent and take their frustrations out here. It's perfectly OK. They should be able to do so without being criticized.

Because the point of this was to let people vent and tell their stories. I find it ludicrous that people like you expect others to bottle their feelings up inside - even on the internet.
Why isn't it OK for people to come on here and share their stories and frustrations?
You don't have a timeline. Were you a K-1 / CR-1 / IR-1 filer or a status adjuster? Was your spouse with you in Monaco? I am asking because it makes a big difference. If you can't relate to others on here and have nothing constructive to say, then it is better not to say anything. That was why many got angry at the other poster. It is not about catering to desires. Yes, many of us enter into long distance relationships but none of us knew what the immigration process entailed. Some take the distance better than others. Some have children who suffer. Who are you (or anyone else) to try and tell people what to feel?
I'm so sorry. *hug* I've shed many tears ,too. If only we'd have an inkling as to when we'd potentially be with our loved ones again would help immensely, I agree.

In December, I almost quit school and stayed in Brazil because I could not stomach coming back to the US alone and suffering again.
We almost pulled our I-130 petition and thought about going to Canada instead because we thought the process would be quicker and have many friends who moved there.
I know how you feel.... I get really angry, too. We ARE being punished for following the laws... and meanwhile, I hear about all these status adjusters (people who come on tourist visas because their friends promised them American husbands and cars and homes) and they get their GCs in 3 months. It sucks but I believe in karma.... if we get through this, there will be nothing but tons of blessings!!!

You are right... this whole process also has been difficult for me and while normally I'd ignore people who stir the pot, it is easy to get irritated due to insensitive comments made by people on such a sore topic.
Sometimes I feel like I need a break from VJ..
