Well, future Mr. & Mrs. Doghandler, let me pat you on the back, shake your hands and hug you too! I'd like to send you a carton of doggie treats!

I truly hope that with enough pressure, this "box" policy at USCIS will be reconstructed to a fairer system for all. My future spouse has dreamed his whole life of living in these fine United States. Now he shakes his head and asks "is this how your whole government works?".

I will also divulge that last week I hand delivered a letter to my Congressman about this very subject. I cited the examples of later filers being processed before earlier filers, and asked that the system of process be questioned. You are right, Ms. D, none of us wants to move ahead...we only want a just process.

Meh...kinda depressing really to have such little control over a process so valuable... Also because we never received the NOA1 hardcopy. We had to call after a month of not hearing anything. They gave us our case number by phone. They said they did send the letter and that they had received everything fine. But it does increase our insecurity levels about the whole process!

Hi Everyone! I can join you in your frustration! We have filled our petition in October and were hoping to hear something by now! My fiance needs to file now for extension in order to stay in the UK ( where we are living at the moment) it expires in March and I would be very gutted if he didn't get his extension over here when we can still be together and waiting for the whole process...But it's the worst case scenario...

I have found this forum last week and actually got more upset reading that some December people already got their NOA2!

Good luck to everyone from October who is still waiting....

And RESPECT and hugs to you Ms LJ, another fine upstanding USC! The campaign has begun. It's working title is clearly "Box Policy" and the strapline on the poster which should go up in the VSC staff room should read "if you're thinking outside the box - don't - it may be unfair". Laughing at my own jokes! I have to....I might be the test case on this site for what happens to people who complain cos they sure ave hgot my number now!

Off to work now. Have a good day comrades, am touched by your lovely online presence x

If that trend of about 3 months continued for everyone, I think people would be very very happy (yes, yes I KNOW how effing hard it is to wait each extra day...we're there ourselves)
