Goooooooooood evening my wonderful CSC-TSC family!

Just got caught up with the day's posts. I see someone got voted off the island :innocent:

Anyhow, I have nothing TSC-related to report- but I'm hoping that will change for some or ALL of us by tonight!

And tonight's countdown begins for me :)

Hello my fellow petitioners:

I see lots of frustration and anger here and believe me I was even worse. I was one of the lucky one that received a NOA2 from TSC and I want to share my story with you. I was also transferred from CSC to TSC. I did everything right I could and at one time I got to a point where I felt helpless. So I decided to turn to God for help which I am glad I did. I wet my eyes in fort of him almost everyday (I have no shame admitting it) and HE decided to open up the Heaven’s door for me. If there is one thing that God CAN’T & WILL NOT ignore, that is tears, so ask for HIS help wholeheartedly. HE CAN & HE WILL HELP YOU. Once HE is on your side, who can work against you? So please don’t give up your hope and keep praying, you will see his magic.

If you all think I am not being serious, please listen to the whole story. I have bee praying for many week and Sunday in my prayer group, the Pastor talked about how God can bring something from the bottom of the pile to top of the pile. I sincerely felt he was talking to me. On Monday morning (few hours after I received message), I received a call from my Congressman office and he informed me that they were able to dig my file out and successfully assigned to an immigration officer for review. After couple of days I received an e-mail stating that my petition is approved. No, I don’t think it was a coincident. I believe God used my Congressman to get the help I needed.

I just wanted to share my story and never meant to offend or hurt anyone in this blog.

Remember, Nothing is impossible to GOD.

I will remember each and everyone of in my prayer.

Thanks for sharing your story. Congrats to you and your loved ones- I sincerely wish you a speedy journey through the NVC :thumbs:

it would be awesome to have a huge get together every year, bringing spouses, children, and change locations every year and have cam/internet hookup so those who cant join in person can be there virtually...

if you gave your info (receipt #s, full name, etc) to anyone on VJ under the guise that they would "help" you through the immigration journey with his inside contacts (like his sister at USCIS) ... please contact OLUInquiries@dhs.gov, and go to http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact to report anything suspicious. Contact your congressman and senator's offices as well.

doing a little web browsing and thinking this might come in handy

http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=47212fc850a06210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=47212fc850a06210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD

The Notification and Federal Employee Antidiscrimination and Retaliation (No FEAR) Act increases federal agency accountability for acts of discrimination and for reprisal against employees for whistle blowing. In support of the Act, Secretary Chertoff issued a memo to all DHS Employees reiterating the Department’s commitment to the No FEAR Act of 2002.

Title III of the No FEAR Act requires federal agencies to post statistical data relating to equal employment opportunity (EEO) complaints filed against them. DHS posts the required cumulative statistical data for EEO complaints for the entire Department. A link to data posted by the Department for DHS and for USCIS is provided below. This data is updated on a quarterly basis.

For further information about the No FEAR Act data, or more information about the Federal Sector EEO Complaints Process, please call the Office Equal Opportunity and Inclusion at 1-866-860-8885.

October, 2010

USCIS No FEAR Data Fourth Quarter FY 2010 (822KB PDF)

now, what about a little whistle blowing on TSC

if you gave your info (receipt #s, full name, etc) to anyone on VJ under the guise that they would "help" you through the immigration journey with his inside contacts (like his sister at USCIS) ... please contact OLUInquiries@dhs.gov, and go to http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact to report anything suspicious.
