I suppose that there isn't any appreciable drop, but I wonder if more and more men are getting scammed from Russia and the republics than ever before...

what exactly does this person hope to accomplish?

maybe he/she just wants to drop a few pounds...

Well, money talks, no matter what part of the world you live in...

Too bad their isn't an expedited service, I am willing to pay 20 fold of the I129F fee. CSC should really look into that, instead of raising taxes, charge a hefty expedited service fee.....

You would pay $3400 to shave off a few weeks from the approval of your I129f??????

Of course one problem with CSC charging for an expedited service is that Vermont already expedites their service for no extra charge. And then a second problem would be that just because you have money and I don't you would get to skip ahead in line before me and make my wait a littlle longer. How do you think THAT would go over with the public? Remember, I pay taxes too.

But hey, its nice to dream...

Hmm,..My only advice to you would be to get a good immigration attorney. Maybe somebody else can offer a different piece of advice. Your situation does seem rather complicated. I'm sorry I can't be more help...

Yes, maybe it just seems Russian immigration is slowing. But I can't help but think IMBRA and the scamming industry are taking their toll...

A lot of ladies are coming from Ukraine, especially since the easing of entrance requirements for Americans (no visa required).

Hmm,...yes, true enough. I also wonder if the shear size of the 'scamming industry' is scaring people off as well...

Yes, I know that the volume of immigrants from Russia is large it just seems, anecdotally at least, that the volume of late is dropping off...

It seems to me that even in the last two years that I have been involved in this international dating thing that fewer Russian ladies are emigrating to the US (or anywhere else) I can't put my finger on it, but it just seems to be true. Am I just imagining this? What does anybody else think?...

genem,

My fiance is Russian as well. I can tell you that this women is using you to get her and her son to the States. She is looking for a 'mule' and I'll wager that she thinks she has found one. I also wager that as soon as she gets her 10yr green card you will be served divorce papers. If this is ok with you then by all means bring her over. You will be in for a couple of years of hell, or worse. If you are looking for a real lady then drop this women and continue looking. There are real Russian ladies out there, they are just getting harder to find. I suggest looking for someone closer to your own age. Anyway good luck to you...

Seeing all the Vermont filers getting their approvals so fast is just a reminder to me that this forum is indeed "a sword that cuts both ways"...

I am predicting that by Friday the 23rd the first January filer will be approved.

55 secs - 2nd try

Nope,..I didn't forget. Roses & chocolate for my sweetie.

My goodness someone that filed in January please say something.

"something"

That guy is making all of us look bad and I, for one, don't appreciate it.

I wholeheartedly agree. Looks like he gave us all a black eye today...

good info, thanks slim...

Wow, I am glad I have a life. I am a month or two away from NOA2 and fortunately I still have my sanity, for now... B)

who else has sung today?

I hope it wasn't the fat lady...

Yes, good luck to the three of you and best wishes...

Besides, they don't even have a case to close. Without a case number what can they close?...

Fantastic! More and more November filers moving on. Hello December.

GM, who is already struggling, buys Chrysler, who is struggling? Dosen't make any sense to me. I would be curious to know how this story got started...

Fantastic! Hopefully I'm not too far behind you...

I would say you are a February filer,...technically...
