I just love when you call someone and the secretary asks " who's calling?" you know when they are busy or on the other line, its because they don't want to talk with you. I am tired of being brushed aside. I am trying to find out where my papers are and NOBODY wants to help. its been 2 weeks since my approval. You can't tell me it takes 2 weeks to send papers from VT to NH.....

I sent a formal inquiry on my petitions to the NVC last night. The FEDEX package was delivered this morning. So MAYBE they will respond to that. I sent an e-mail requesting info to the NVC. It was read yesterday morning but nobody responded. Real nice, huh?

This whole process is stupid.

Mayra, hehehe I am loving this hug hit and run even more :P

Lis, thanks for the sweet dreams wish. (F)

Jen, I hope u get the answers u seek. I went through the same thing yesterday. It took a combination of phone calls, voicemails and emails to get the result I wanted!!! And was asked to back off and allow the process to take its natural course. NATURAL COURSE??? Isn't 240 something days natural enough? Let me try taking ur spouse away and placing them on a continent far away and let's see how patient u will be. This whole process is not only stupid and aggravating, emotionally and financially exhausting. For the past 2 yrs, my health has suffered from it as a result. And no one can understand what it's like unless they were in ur shoes... I guess they don't understand that a mere one day delay means an additional month of waiting at NVC! If we can't get a May interview, we would be stuck with a June interview and at this point that is not an option if I have a say in it!!! :angry: There is one more week left in March so unless all of our docs are sent in by the EOM, we run the risk to be delayed till June!

Everyone else, hugsssssssss and much luck!! :star::star::star::star:

Everyone step off the ledge and lets have a group hug! :P

"you fondle my trigger then you blame my gun"

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!

Hello

I just found this website and I thought this would be a great place to start. I just got the approval notices for our i130 and i129 petitions via email. I am waiting to recieve the letters in the mail. To tell the truth, I haven't really prepared myself for this whole thing and I'm doing it alone! Your help is greatly appreciated!
