All good things. I sent off a care package this past Friday: books, magazines, cookies, hershey kisses, etc. I have been trying to lose weight and will continue. Treadmill tonight! Although without Darren around I find myself wanting to eart everything! I also did some research on what I need to put together for the next steps once I get the approval. What I didn't realize is, your fiance will need his police record from EVERYWHERE he lived since he turned 16. I am glad I reread everything this weekend.

Hi everybody!

Does anyone know how long i have to wait before calling VCS after sending back the RFE?

My online case status hasn't changed since Apirl 20th so i wont get any info by checking it online.

Thanks ya'll!

There's no rule against calling. And the only way people here have been getting any answers is to fake an rfe. But you have a real one, so if you sent what they wanted I'd call right away and ask if it's what they need. Somewhere in this thread is the technique on how to get to a real person ...

So what do you all think? Is this what is slowing ours way down? Notice the "...the number shot up to 529 in August and 889 in September..." Is there where our adjudicators are?

Ref: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071001/ap_on_...s_iraq_refugees

Iraqi refugee admissions fall short By MATTHEW LEE, Associated Press Writer

2 hours, 15 minutes ago

The United States admitted more than 1,600 Iraqi refugees over the past 12 months, but still fell short of its goal for the year despite a last-minute push to reach a reduced target of 2,000, according to State Department figures.

Amid a furor over the slow pace of admissions for the world's fastest growing refugee population, the Bush administration allowed 1,608 Iraqis into the country between last September and this October, the span covering the government's fiscal 2007.

In February, officials said they hoped to process about 7,000 Iraqi refugees for resettlement in the United States, but sharply reduced that target to 2,000 over the summer when it became clear the original figure could not be met.

The blame for the slow pace is placed on bureaucratic slowdowns — including bickering between the State Department, which is in charge of refugee resettlement, and the Department of Homeland Security, which must screen would-be admittees. Another factor was a lack of cooperation from some foreign countries.

The poor performance sparked criticism from refugee advocacy groups and lawmakers who complained that Washington was not doing enough for those who have fled the violence in Iraq since the 2003 U.S.-led invasion.

But admission figures from the State Department's Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration, obtained Monday by The Associated Press, show a significant improvement in admissions of Iraqis over the past two months.

From a low of one Iraqi admitted in both April and May, the number shot up to 529 in August and 889 in September as the administration worked to streamline the process, according to an internal spreadsheet.

On Sept. 19, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff announced the appointment of two senior officials from their agencies to clear the logjam that had hampered admissions.

Several days later, administration officials announced that the United States would accept 1,000 Iraqi refugees per month for the next fiscal year beginning this month for a total of 12,000 between Sept. 30, 2007, and Oct. 1, 2008.

The administration had acknowledged a "moral obligation" to protect Iraqi refugees and to admit as many as possible that are referred for resettlement by the United Nations. That number has now surpassed 10,000, officials say.

However, Iraqis are subject to more security screening than other would-be refugees and that process has been hindered by a lack of cooperation from some countries, notably Syria, where the majority of Iraqi refugees are now living.

According to the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees, more than 2 million Iraqis have fled their country. Of these, 1.2 million are in Syria, 750,000 in Jordan, 100,000 in Egypt, 54,000 in Iran, 40,000 in Lebanon. 10,000 in Turkey and 200,000 in various Persian Gulf countries.
