I am so mad about this.. just because we apply one month late, we have to wait much longer now.. :crying: :crying: I actually cried this time when I left China... she made me cry at the airport.. :crying: :crying: I really miss her and want to be together.. why can't we at least get approved?.. That is better than nothing.. they say they are looking at our case now.. but they said they need up to 30 days to do a "REQUIRED INVESTIGATION".. these kind of cases require it, they said... I already work for the government, so they already did a background check on me... that is so stupid.. they should do background checks (and IQ checks) on these USCIS officers.. they should put quotas as to how many they should finish in 1 day... :angry: :angry:...

people who apply in March already have their interview set in October... I want one in November please... I probably won't even get approved by then... :( ... I'm looking at the clock everyday... so sad... :clock:... time goes by everyday that I can't be with my baby... why is it taking so long? .. Even my "estimated time to arrive" of April 13, 2008 seems not optimistic anymore... :crying: :crying: :crying:

My went from 4/16 up to 5/29.. almost 2 months time.. just to send out a receipt.. that is ridiculous.. they should have a minimum quota everyday... not just finish approving when you feel like it.. :angry: :angry:

I'm sorry you're frustrated and upset. The process is so inconsistent, I think many of us had to adjust our expected timelines. Some parts of the process go very slowly and others go very fast.

Awww, all of us here know how you feel. Just try to remember what you're fighting for, and how lucky you are to have the love in your life.

Hoping things work out for all of you (and me too for that matter)

Best of luck in your journey!!

Thanks for all the responses... I just want to wish everyone a fast (well fast enough) journey!! This has been a long wait for all of us.. I hope that the steps after the NOA2 will be much faster (NVC)... I hear that is the case?? I'm still thinking about what the last USCIS person said to me.. it takes 30 days just to do a background check.. oh ... just call up and find out.. I can find out my credit history in less than 1 day... surely my other information is just as fast to search...

Hi GoGo,

I know its frustrating, and just like you said, you are not in this alone. The fact that no one at USCIS can give you any reasons as to why our petitions are taking so long makes the waiting worst. If your anything like me, I can't even rest fully until my wife is here with me. Hang in there, and we will bring all of our love ones soon. Try and stay positive, (very difficult,) for fellow VJers, for your wife, and most importantly for your own peace of mind. :yes:
