Sara!!!!

I think your lawyer is a horrible person to do this too you. You wait this long and then he wants to talk on TUESDAY?????? #######? I think for the weekend you should try and stay really busy. Work, Sleep, read a book you can't put down, go to the movies, walk in the woods, visit friends, sleep, anything to take your mind off of it, then Monday call and DEMAND to at least know what the meeting is about!

I just want you to know that I think of you several times a day and hope and pray you get your NOA2.

I think alot of us do.

Congrats to Xuxu...lucky you!

I'm glad in a way that there are still some of us 6 months+ still out there to encourage each other. The thought that we could be in a separate pile on a desk really, really winds me up! To me our case is straight forward. No kids, no previous divorce, I'm from uk (which I didn't think was a high risk country!) #######!!! I have to keep telling myself to chill out!

But then I think of Sara. This is so awful for you & I will be thinking of you this weekend. Please don't worry too much. I can't imagine what you're going through, except that you must've gone totally grey by now.

Emma...hope you've stopped hyperventilating about immigration when you visit soon? LOL you're funny...you will be fine chick. :thumbs:

Sara, don't panic! You haven't heard anything yet so work on the no news is good news theory! There's no point getting stressed about it when there's absolutely nothing you can do until you've spoken to him.... Please don't worry too much this weekend!

Emma, no word on the RFE yet, still waiting for the lawyer to get back to us with details. When I spoke to him Thursday, he thought that we'd need to provide more evidence of our relationship. We've already sent in photos, passport copies of the stamps for our visits, phone bills, plane tickets... Other than our names signed in blood, I really can't imagine what they'd want from us..... Just got to wait I guess until we get the letter... I'm getting good at waiting..... It seems to be all I do.....

oh ho how can they ask for more evidence of relationship at this stage all u have to do for this stage of it is prove that u have met with in the last two years.....that the petitioner is a usa citizen and ur both free to marry.......it is mostly the embassies that ask for further proof of relationship.........most the time from what i have seen is they send u rfe because u didnt write in does not apply in the spaces that didnt apply we wrote n/p and i saw where someone had to re due theirs when they did that...........and write DOES NOT APPLY

im trying not to flip out but is not working out so well i even called perviz and asked him did u call the attorney did u write the attorney why is he telling us we have a meeting by phone call on tues?........and perviz is viewing this in a positive light as in it has to be the noa2 and he just wants to make sure we understand the next step........im so hoping that he is not going to be to upset if it is not that.......................

I mean come on it should go straight back to the person who asked for the RFE so they can hurry up and get on with it! I think im going to go for a job there and set them all straight!

As you can see there is lots of us still waiting for our NOA2 . I have to tell myself every morning that todays the day then at night or the next morning I check the site and find the same old dates. But I know that all of our NOA2 are coming to us . I think what really hurts on our time is that the service centers are working on the workers visa'a because the big companys will pay the money to get the people they have hired so they expedited the workers visa'a so every time this happens we just get pushed back alittle more in the waiting line. I have call and wrote my congressman and my senator and this monday they will have our copys of our paper work and action of notice I also told them not to email them but find the person that is working on our case to find out whats the deal with it . I think if we all done this it would help us all because then they have to think when the person incharge starts getting all the calls then thet will want to do something about it because they dont like it when the big people start calling them like the senators or congressman this past week before I came back to Canda I will stay another month again I got up at 4am and wrote a letter to about 8 senators made copys of our notice of action then faxed them and mailed them to each of them once I got up here I then call them . I have one lady that she told me that she will get to the bottom of it and she will not stop calling until she gets the answer to what is taking them for ever.Now the more people do this it will help the system and help us all it will make the problem be seen write your news papers any big paper they love stories like this but VSC and the USCIS not like seeing stories like this sometimes we have to do things to get what we want the hardway . Yes Iam very tired of being away from my honey so lets help each other and not put other people down in anyway . Power in numbers does mean more when it comes to something like what we are waiting on

I hope poor Sara gets hers first and then the rest of us next.

I think we all have the same case worker. The one that has the most holidays & sick days! :wacko:

I really do think that they are so much slower with UK, Aus & Canadian visas though. Petitioners from Philippines & Thailand seem to get theirs so much quicker! :wacko:
