SHIP THEM TO:

P NOVAK, ADJUDICATORS, AND STAFF

USCIS VERMONT SERVICE CENTER

75 LOWER WELDEN ST

ST ALBANS, VT 05479-0001

ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS?

LET'S DO IT

I'll order mine today....

How about a note like:

KEEP THOSE K APPROVALS COMING!!

I'll send my share for the press release as well..

Thank you for your hard work on this...

Guys, dont think that just because they are moving that it means it will STAY moving, this habit repeats itself with USCIS where they get more work and have delays...we must keep the pressure on

Ok here's the website for the kisses and the address to send to again, complete with cheerleading by Amrssnowangel!

Byron, thanks for your comments buddy, I just hope it makes a difference for you and all of us! Fingers crossed

Byron, yes! Do call. When was the last time you called? You too Mel and Syl.

Shoot I got lucky when I called and got an officer on the phone. Hope you do too. I say, keep bugging them!

I actually called yesterday, i got a guy that was very nice and polite...he explained that once the RFE requested returns, they put it back on a shelf until they get a bunch so that an officer starts adjudicating them... .....Im tired of calling and getting a run around or someone rude...last time , which was last Friday, i got a rude lady just wanted to know what i was calling for, i explained and then she started telling me how she had a record on her screen of how i have called for the same thing a couple of times...i told her , well of course , im still waiting for an approval..thats why....im just sick of calling that place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not care what they say to me anymore about all the calls I have made. It is my right to call USCIS at anytime to see what is happening with my petition. Why do they have customer service reps. if they do not expect people to call. In addition, if they would move the petitions along quicker, they would not have people calling so much.

Good luck Byron. I hope you get your approval real soon!!!

Thanks afterforever!!!!

Im really starting to fade with the optimism.....tonight i feel depressed because this whole thing is out of my hands and i cant do a damn thing about it....Tonight is one of those nights that it is killing me really bad...I would give anything to hear Leidy's voice or her son running around...instead all i here is this silence that seems soooo loud and torturing!!! I'm losing hope! I actually had a long time that i was patient and was taking well as each day passed but after spending the 5 days with Leidy in Panama, this is becoming something too difficult to deal with....But like i said .....i cant do anything about it..

That's why I have not been back to visit my fiance in Thailand, even though I have been tempted very much to do so. The problem is that emotionally it would be extemely hard for me (and her) to leave each again, so I chose to wait until she has her interview before I go back. We both told each other that the next time I come, we will never be apart again, ever.

I wish I could give you more comfort than my words but just keep telling yourself your approval will come soon. Hang in there Byron, not only for yourself but for your fiancee also. Good luck!!

In the same boat and understand the feeling. By the time I go back for my fiancee's interview it will be a year since I last saw her (assuming the interview will be in Feb 08). It's a long and stressful process, but I keep telling myself and to her that in the end it will be well worth it and that it will make our relationship much stronger. Hang in there guys. Soon we will be with our love ones!

In the end it is all worth it...what is so stressfull is that all this could really be such an easier process if it was handled better...

I agree! All of these delays at each step we encountered makes this process tougher to deal with, and of course the Holiday season is coming up and we can't be with our love ones.

The holiday season is what keeps stabbing my heart...the thought of not being with her almost pulls a tear out of me....and as each day passes it really becomes harder and harder to envision the holidays together...so depressing...

I understand and last night was my night to cry......everyday that goes by I feel more and more frustrated and helpless.....I just got back from Peru last month and I was for sure that he would be coming to me before Christmas......but now I know that that is not going to happen.....so I hope for the new year.....and remember his eyes looking into mine and believe that we can over come this too.......I too am sitting here alone in my house watching TV and trying to keep myself positive......I have many hard times in my life but I am thinking this is the hardest........with the greatest reward....Hang on....Lora

Yup, last year I went to spent Christmas with her. I had told her that next year we'll spend it together in the US. It just pains me to find out now that this won't happen and to make it worst we won't be able to spend it this year together at all. The next time I can go back is when she has her interview. Hopefully it will be a success so we can come back home together.

[BYRON-LEIDY 0]

My only option is to hold on....I dont know what the reason is but tonight has been the hardest since i started this process...Im holding back the tears....the anger....I had a dream of Leidy her son and Idecorating a Christmas tree together..USCIS is making this dream just that a dream....as if losing our baby wasnt hard enough for me when she miscarried....A holiday season without her Would destroy me....I want to go to her so bad but i have taken a big hit to the little i had saved with all my trips to be with her this year....

This has been an emotional roller coaster ride for us all, eh? Financially it can be tough too. I'm in the process of preparing for our new life together when she arrives. I'm about to move into our new home at the beginning of December. I was hoping that she would be here and we can go shopping together to furnish our home. We all know how women loves home decorating. hehe But it looks like I will have to wait. I guess I can start out by getting all the misc stuffs.

Holidays apart are the worst. But finally I will have a New Year's Eve with Sasha. This would have been the 3rd one apart. Still wont have Christmas together though. But at least we'll have Russian Christmas together. This will be the last holiday season we all have to suffer away from our fiance(e)s. Knock on wood!!
