Waiting for a NOA2 from VSC for your I-129F?

[MKCT 0]

Alright! Chile had a earthquake on wednesday and just now, just 2 minutes ago we just had a tremble...I didn't know what to do....all I thought was about my laptop and didn't move! hehehe! It was a short one but the building shaked....

Please be careful Mirla...

Thanks amrssnowangel! I survived a 7.9 earthquake on august and 1000 aftershocks, hehehe..This must be another aftershocks I guess...Chile is our neighbor country so I think maybe it has something to do with that earthquake...

Talking about the earthquake in Chile...Lora, Is Oscar alright? I hear in some parts of Arequipa felt the earthquake but it wasn't that strong...

Hi Mirla, Yes he felt it....He said it was pretty strong for a minute or two. He was with his father at the business......but all was good.....Well I had the Congressman call back and nothing has been done on our case.....It is 166 days since our Noa1......I came home and check the mail and the website and got nothing , nada, nil.......I am happy for everyone though who got approvals.....Lora

I keep checking the website and e-mail and no notifications yet!!! I'll give them one more day

Lora keep thinking positive, you know it's on its way

Ok, in addition to the contacts sent to by the press release for the Hershey Kisses I sent info to Lou Dobbs, Associated Press, the Drudge Report, and WTOP News radio in DC. Anybody have any other ideas?

I guess a press release isn't all it takes and it seems to me that this is newsworthy?! Somebody should give us a little notice

I contacted the Washington Post about the article they had on the front page about 4 weeks ago about K1 Visas and aske about any follow up they would be doing....in fact that was how I found VJ.....and they said they had little response to the article even though they ran it front page......I was disappointed......so I thought about writing letters to the editors....but in this area people are crazy about illegal immigration and they are lumping us into that catagory...and then of course you have the woman from Lebenon who had a sham marriage and became a CIA operative....It could not be any worst timing.....I sent out email to all of the Congress and got a couple of auto response....Senator Martinez if Florida responded with a.....We know about USCIS...they are the worse agency in the government....If that is true then why is the Gonzalez guy still have his job??????.......I just want to rip something up.....augh........anyway I am calling my Congressman again....It has been 2 weeks since they told me that our file was assigned to a case worker......he or she must of gotten lost coming to work because I have nothing as of 20 minutes ago........Lora

Hmmm, sounds like it is easier to get a job at the CIA than it is to get a k1

I bet if I sent a press release that I kidnapped paris hilton's friggin dog the press would be camped in my yard within hours!!!

Perhaps because you didn't go through someone like, say, the Associated Press, it didn't get noticed by a lot of people?

I don't know, really.

Maybe the only thing that would get noticed is a full-scale protest in front of DHS.

Actually, I am confident the press release service sent it to ap. They sent it to every news outlet. I also checked the ap website and sent the release myself to the address they have for it.

You are probably right though, only something like a protest with people getting arrested or something would get noticed.

I also think if we were 'undocumented' or here on H1B we would get more sympathy as well.

Oh well, I hope they think about us when eating the Hersheys

I just had another brilliant idea -

Ok, so far the press release and other attempts to get others to circulate our Hershey's protest has not been much help.

But the purpose was to 1) let VSC know we're tired of waiting 2) get sympathy from the public, and 3) let politicians know our plight.

We might be foiled in number 2, but we accomplished the first and I have an idea on how to succeed with number 3 yet.

We can send our congressmen/women and senators the press release DIRECTLY by email. They all actually read these emails from constituents and it would be a way to follow up on our past complaints to them about the process so they know it's ongoing. The press release is at this link :

hersheys press release

Let's make this work for us

PS can someone post the links to email ur congress people and senator, thanks!

There was some discussion a few months ago about the Iraqi visa situation. Here is a link to an interesting article about this topic.

The above quote is not accurate? Who told you this? The reporter, Karin, sent me an e-mail saying that she had a HUGE response to the article. So, don't buy that line for ONE minute. I can not imagine she would lie to me.

the editors office told me this information......I was comcerned that my letter to the editor was not seen about the article and they told me that they had not gotten a big response to the article ....they did not publish on letter to the editor....I rea the Post every day and that they had no further follow-ups planned.......He may of been lying to me but so far I see that has been true....No Follow-up....No letters to the Editors published.......and it has been almost 1 month....so I do not know what they do with there "big response" but I have seen nothing else from them........
