I-130 Filers in Nov-Dec 2007, Still Waiting...

Another joke for a USCIS officer...

A USCIS officer ( O ) was sleeping with her husband ( H ) at home. Middle of the sleep, O started dreaming.

O) Hurray, I did fantastic job today and started laughing during the sleep

During this time, Husband just woke up and started listening her voice.

O) I am proud that I managed to touch so many of them today

H) (Little confused), but asked to her, what do you mean ?

O) (Still sleeping), replied: Many of my colleagues told me they are touching many of them every day. Now I also started that.

H) So, do you get satisfaction by doing this ?

O) Yeah, it is real pleasure. If I touch more, I get more pleasure.

H) Do you think it is good, we are a good family, aren't we ?

O) If I touch more, I'll earn more (she actually intended performance based pay!)

H) Why do I need your money by doing this ?

O) We have kids education, mortgage, auto loan etc, so we need to earn more.

H) Ok, tell me more

O) All those are just feeling-less objects (she mentioned papers!)

H) Then...

O) I have to do more work, they just sit idle

H) I know you have that capability

O) If I do overtime, it would be even nicer, what do you think ?

The dream goes like that...

Just enjoy!

Lotofpatience, you are truly hilarious ..... thankyou for putting a smile on my face today ...

Nice to know you guys are enjoying the post ! Good luck to everyone to get the approvals faster ! Until then this is the pain reliever...

Did you all see the story the other day in the NY Times about another adjudicator being busted for pressuring a GC applicant (a married one, I might add) for sex to get her GC? She recorded it on her cell phone. He forced her to give him oral sex on the spot so she would know he was serious. The same guy was recorded doing it again. If they are that arrogantly open with such illegal activities, it makes one wonder how committed they are to uniting our families. I personally feel like there is an apathetic attitude organizationally. I saw that when I requested my own expedite and they told me that losing my child and having surgery alone is not an emergency because since I am petitioning for my husband I cannot need HIM in any way. He is the one who needs me. So apparently his or my depression needs to sink to suicide, oh but then wait, it would have to be him, because mine wouldn't be an emergency. OVERHALL USCIS!

girl, don't even think about suicide and give those nitwit morons the satisfaction of knowing they have one less case to process.

Yeah .... this totally sucks ..... it doesn't make any sense. I'm shocked about your situation .... the funny thing is, that they say you're not allowed to need your Husband, yet you are the one who has petitioned for him to come to the States ...... so logically speaking, his visa is for the interests of the USC (you) .... so your depression should be the one which counts ..... because if it was your Husband which became suicidally depressed, he'd fail the medical and wouldn't be allowed in until he was cleared by a psychologist ..... totally bloody screwy system

They should allow us all to apply for work permits and then we can be our spouses in a couple of weeks ..... or at the very least, lump us in with the fiances, so we can be approved in a couple of weeks like they are at the moment.

The biggest joke of all is saying USCIS is commited to reuniting families ..... now I'm really laughing

However ..... don't go thinking about suicide ..... you really should look into a lawyer for your situation, and make some money out of them .... I posted the details of a Tort Lawyer (who deals with the government) on your thread the other night ..... do call and give it a try .... hugs for you xx

You should get a good lawyer if you have any recorded proof and teach that USCIS moron a lesson ! Never leave that guy, if this is true !

Thanks everyone! It is beyond frustrating. My husband cannot even yet talk about what has happened. I have to go back to work tomorrow and I don't even know how I'll do it. No, I wouldn't give them the satisfaction of having one less case to worry about....but it's just the point that they really have no idea what emotional condition we are in and keeping us apart makes it....just insane. Each day is difficult. I've contacted my legislators and sent an editorial to the NY Times (not published) and I believe that USCIS is under scrutiny now and the timing is good to put a personal story to all of their numbers in backlog. It is amazing that Gonzalez says he is quitting to spend time with his family (I don't believe that) and yet we cannot even see ours, no matter what happens to us in the process. I will keep telling my story until I find someone who will listen. These things must be publicized so that the abuses of USCIS are known. I do wish I had recorded the call though. I couldn't believe it was a woman telling me that I cannot need my husband. I wanted to ask her if she could imagine herself in my position, but I knew that she did not have a heart already. I know there are a million other stories like mine.

I did visit the site with the tort lawyer - thank you. Right now I'm still trying to manage to finish my Ph.D. despite 3 years of sexual harassment...then this loss - it kind of knocked me down...so each day is just a struggle at this point. I've got to get to a point where I am okay first....then I'll be on my game and back to fighting back. :-) Thanks for the support.

Yes, As you said, publish to NY times and let the world know about our great USCIS stories !!!

More chuckles...

After the I-130 approval of a petitioner and NVC processing, the case transferred to a foreign consulate. So, the petitioner ( P ) dialed the phone to contact the foreign consulate to query some details. But unfortunately, the call reached to a drug agency ( A ) who sells diff. sizes of marijuana, cocaine, brown sugar etc.

P) Hello, this is xyz, I would like to enquire about my packets (he actually intended packet 3 and 4)

A) Yes, we handle all those packets

P) Thank god! When can we get our packet, my case is at your location now ?

A) Ok, where should we deliver the packet ?

P) To my wife at so and so address ?

A) Has she ever seen these packets before ?

P) No, this is the first time.

A) Cool, we got a new customer then. BTW, how will you pay ?

P) I have already paid (he intended IV bill fee paid at NVC)

A) We haven't received it yet.

P) Ok, I'll fax the copy of the payment and collected their fax#

A) Ok, once we have that copy, we will deliver the packet. How many packets you need ?

P) 2 packets

A) At what size ?

P) A-4 size

A) No, we send them by weight

P) Ok, then go ahead by weight

A) Will your wife be fainted when she sees our packet ?

P) Of course, it will be a big surprise for her

A) First try a little from the packet, then increase the quantity more and more

P) What do you mean ?

A) Since she experiences it for the first time, she'll have head-ache, shiver etc.

P) (he became little angry) We'll manage it, that is none of your business...

the conversation goes like that...

I would like to tell you that I am going to visit my wife in May to break the long wait into 2 pieces... Ticket is already booked, though it is just 2 weeks vacation. I know she would be able to come over here in Sep/Oct timeframe only due to USCIS visa processing efficiency, that prompted me for this trip.

Good luck to all of you who are still waiting ! Nothing is impossible, impossible takes little longer time...

My wife asked me whether you would bring the visa with me, I just joked, of course, I will. Then she asked me how come so fast ? I replied I have a visa card in my wallet...

Yeah, you have a great trip. The visa joke is funny

Nice thought sgr .... getting touched before he sees his wife ..... what if he gets 'touched' when he's with his wife?

Thanks KipandSarahJayne and Sgr for good humor sense !!! I wish it could be a triple touch - one by I-130, second by I-129F and third by ... (I feel little shy )

Either way its 16-18 months, honestly, like they ssaid it on their site.....may be a couple of months more. Realistically, I dont imagine my wife coming here before this december, and I am an august 07 filer.
