Obama is heading to Brazil this next week and could be adding Brazil to the Visa Waiver Program, very exciting! Hopefully on the long flight to Rio he will have time to see our tweets and make some calls!

09/23/10 - I-129F Received in Dallas, TX

After numerous calls to USCIS, my two Texas Senators and a Congressman, the latter got an "expedite" put through (if you can call a month and a week after ONPT an expedite). Just never let up! Even though mine took way too long, there were people who were a month before me and waited longer because they just sat back and watched. "The squeaky wheel gets the grease!"

Hey, Obama had enough time to care about the NCAA brackets this week I think he has sufficient time to deal with issues US citizens are having.:hehe:

im saying i doubt the white house gonna take care of a visa issue in a short run. its a long run issue whats not on top of the list.

first japan and the risk that the west coast of america can get nuclear risk, issue with lybia and the gas issues what is already affecting the states, high unemployment rates, economic is so far down. and dont forget election time is coming up. so he is fighting to stay in the house. and the uscis thanks to the loving bush govermnent has hands free in what they doing. they pretty powerfull and can do what they wanna do.

hey i agree with u all. im waiting as well and it sucks BIG time. and i think its a cute idea with the tweet but i doubt it will affect anything.

if u guys wanna have a twitter affect u need some thousands of ppl who will tweet that.

im waiting on my visa but these days i dont really care and worry bout it so much cuz im more focus on japan cuz it will affect the whole world.

Love the tweets! It only takes a few to get the snowball effect! If every one gets 10 to tweet, we have ourselves a revolution. Think of it like multi-level marketing, it's a pyramid effect without the annoying sales pitch or any strings attached, just asking people for a simple tweet! :help:

I am just confused about what the goal of this exercise is? What will this achieve?

Don't you know that if you never ask the answer is always NO? In order words, nothing will be done unless people keep complaining. That's how government works.

This topic was partly inspired after reading "VSC at a standstill today..." post on VJ.

Dear K1 Vermonters :)

This post assumes that Vermont Service Center (USICS) is undeniably underperforming last months, concerning the “5 month goal” for K1 Fiancée Visa.

This needs to be corrected!

How 340 K1’s can do this – yes we are at least 340 K1 petitioners counting what’s left from September plus October, November, December 2010 . This according to Igor’s list.

Facts:

Some of them are calling USCIS call center, and the answer is always “call us back in 30 days if you don’t hear from us”

Writing letters to congressman/senators is another thing we do. But this is more action type of “5 monthers” .

Actions:

Write a twitter to this addresses: @USCIS @BarackObama @whitehouse

And explain in 140 characters that your heart can no longer wait.

Write them with your words what you feel and how difficult it is to not be together with the one you love.

Do not curse them or anyone! Use the power of words and believe in them.

Write them every day. Hi Brad@gelina,liked your photo,I am with you guys!164days here waiting for NOA2 but we heard the same answers from congresswoman that we walked-in,called USCIS...wait for another 30days because we are not in their timeline mark yet! :devil:sent an email 2weeks ago but left noreply! it is really aggravating!So sad that I can't TWEET don't know how to do it either.Just worried guys if VSC Building is in a sinkhole trouble or Hit by Nuclear Radiation that caused paralyzed or backlog???I'm serious!please do understand my feelin' right now,I'm tired of hearing people so disappointed everyday.So,GOOD LUCK to you guys!

Technical tricks:

We need to use always one word in our tweets eg: K1 Vermonters, or Vermont fiancée, or something else that we can decide it here on VJ. This will help twitter to make us trend. Trend=News.

Retweets previous twits of other K1’s.

If we make it to “touch” someone, than hopefully shifting adjudicator officers to K1’s in Vermont will happen.

If not, god bless all.

Keep using the #K1Vermonters in each post, and then retweet everyone else's tweets, we can start a revolution to reform this, these applications should take 1 month or less to approve, this is outrageous.
