OMG! Just got approved! 17 days later!

[Nita&Assaad 0]

Thanks for the Portuguese lesson!!! Great Conversation

I understood everything..... Relax everyone!

But I can agree with who waited for a long time or is still waiting for their approval!!

Meu marido vem para participar da entrevista comigo.

Eu já falei várias vezes. Eu não estou brava com você. Eu estou puta com isso porque eu não aguento mais. Eu estou sozinha. Eu durmo sozinha toda noite já faz um ano. Meu aniversário de casamento é no dia 5 e eu vou estar sozinha. Não tem mais otimismo, não tem mais lado bom da coisa. Eu estou deprimida e de saco cheio.

Me desculpe por não conseguir mais expressar nada além de raiva e frustração. Não tenho nada além de raiva e frustração para expressar.

Olha, eu entendo completamente. Sério mesmo. Uma das minhas melhores amigas está passando por isso também e já faz 6 meses. A gente sofre juntas. Eu não me sinto nem um pouco bem por ter tido o visto aprovado em 17 dias. Na boa, não sinto mesmo. Eu vejo casos como o seu e o do Jonbless que meu, mexem contigo. Eu fico puuuta da vida tbm.

Eu sei que vc não está brava comigo, não disse isso. Só que o jeito como vc falou, parecia que estava jogando pedras em mim. Desculpa se eu interpretei errado. Entendo mto bem a sua frustração e a demonstração dela.

Todos nós aqui dormimos sozinhos, acordamos sozinhos, jantamos sozinhos, fazemos tudo sozinhos, só na expectativa de ver os amados novamente ou de ficar ao lado deles para sempre. Eu tbm passei por isso - não tanto tempo qto vc, claro, mas te entendo.

Meu marido tbm já estava puto da vida qdo eu disse que antes de outubro era garantido que não sairia nada de visto (antes de receber a notícia). Ele ficou mto puto e disse que viria morar no Brasil então pq esse país dele era uma piada.

Na boa, eu não me sinto ótima... deveria estar, mas não estou.

Você ou o seu marido deveriam mesmo meter a boca no trombone na entrevista. Eu sei que eu vou. Pq não é justo uns esperarem 11 meses e não terem nem um touch e outros, com 15 dias que enviou o I129F serem aprovados. É uma tremenda injustiça. Ou é uma coisa ou não é. Pq q tem q ter 2 pesos e duas medidas?

Brasileiro já tá acostumado com merda, corrupção e falcatrua. Tem até o famoso "jeitinho brasileiro", mas até tu, América? É ridículo.... sério.

Não tô brava contigo não.

Vc é de onde no BR?

XOXO

Renata

Congratulations on your speedy approval!!! :thumbs:

Please don't allow anyone to change your mood and feel happy on your approval!!

Since when does it make it right to come to someones threat that simply relates that they were approved to start making smart remarks and downright bashing her into saying she's sorry for getting approved and how wrong this is????

And then name calling .. hypocrite? I dont know to whom that was written for.. but who can say they would refuse the approval in the same timeline as this lucky person???

Comeon.. yes the system is a mess.. but take ur bad mouthing to the other threads there is millions of them!

If you can do this and your case is not approved, then put it to use on the proper agencies.. not a simple VJr that had nothing to do with it!

Parabéns pela aprovação! Nossa, foi super rapido, que maravilha.

Agora respondendo a tua pergunta, o que fazer agora, etc, se vc nao precisa do dinheiro ou nao se importa ficar sem trabalhar, va em frente e de o teu aviso previo. Eu sou bem workaholic, eu faço de tudo pra não ficar sem emprego, se esse é o teu caso, eu te aconselharia a continuar no emprego e dar o aviso previo em 1 mes, pois com certeza vai demorar uns dois meses para a tua entrevista. Isso é o que eu faria.

Boa sorte com o resto do teu processo

i just have one questions: doesnt she need the I130 approval too??? what happen now??

Thanks you guys! It's good to see that some people are happy for others (instead of trying to push them down). I was really upset with what happened yesterday. She had no right to come down on me. But somehow I understand her anger.

Well, I guess I set a record alright. I mean, 16 days?! I don't even think that expedites are so fast! lol

Nessa, yes, I am a workaholic. I've been working for the same company for the last 3 years. They have been really good to me and I don't think it's fair to give them a 1 week notice or a 1 month notice. I will tell them on Monday, so that they have time to find somebody else and for me to train that new person. Also, I need to get my "FGTS", so I need them to fire me. This is why I need to do things right.

What I have to do? Send an email to NVC and get my Rio de Janeiro Number. Once I get that, I can ask for the exams, and background checks (atestado de antecedentes criminais), take all vaccines. Without that number, I have my hands tied, especially because that number has to be included on my exams, background checks, etc etc.

I don't need to wait for the approval of the I130 anymore. I have been approved on my I129F and that allows me to do the interview. If I am granted the K3 visa, I can enter the USA and wait for the approval of the I130 there with my husband. Once it's approved, I ask for the AOS (Adjustment of Status). Actually, I don't know. Do I need to wait for the I130's approval or can I ask for the AOS without it?

After that, I can be with the hubby forever! YAY!

Thank you guys for your support. I am so very happy with my approval!

I wish you all a very very very speedy process! Even faster than mine!

Dont worry about it. You have no need to feel bad, you should feel great. An incredible piece of luck! We have been waiting over 8 months now and are sick of this process - it's just crazy. I posted earlier on this thread and you can see I was pissed off, with the system not you. Sure, it does make a lot of us spit fire. This is such a long and painful process and it brings me and my wife down. Why do some get approved so fast and others take forever? Who knows? But seriously, that is not your fault so you have every right to party you ####### off. How can anyone be mad with you, we dont know you! It's a broken system in many respects and that is what people are angry at. I think perhaps sometimes people just vent anger in the wrong way and at the wrong people.

So sincere congratulations to you. I hope you have a speedy path through the NVC.

Cheers and good luck.

Hi Dave! Thank you sooo much for your support!

I know. People get angry because of this USCIS mess and I understand. I am not blaming anybody. I know that I would be just as pissed if I was waiting for 9 months and somebody got approved in 16 days. I would feel like throwing things at everybody.

But I have no control of the process and hell yeah, I am happy about for approved so fast!

I know we all just want to be with our honeys and soon we all will, right?!

Hi Bex!

Thanks!

I wish all a speedy process as well!

[Cornishman 3]

You are welcome.

Now stop feeling you have to justify and explain it all to everyone and go enjoy it!

You got one hell of a lucky break and it's time for you to have fun. We'll all get there eventually!!!!!!!

Good luck.

I'm not raining on anyone's parade

I'm just saying what everyone is thinking but has no guts to post

Lucky her etc etc

but f*uk that, I am not happy about this, I can't be happy about this after refreshing USCIS case status online page everyday for 9 months waiting for an approval

yes, you are raining on the parade. this entire ordeal isn't easy nor for the impatient, so get used to it.

also note - ewok does not like for other than english to be used outside the regional forums. if you two wish to converse in portuguese, this is a good thread to do so

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=99253

Absolutely. English only in this forum please.

I'm from São Paulo

and I admit, I'm venting on the poor girl

I'll stop

So, how about an apology (in English) then? Your venting was inappropriate and aimed entirely at the wrong person.

You are welcome.

Now stop feeling you have to justify and explain it all to everyone and go enjoy it!

You got one hell of a lucky break and it's time for you to have fun. We'll all get there eventually!!!!!!!

I agree.

I think all of you here who are b!tching at the OP should back off. VJ is here for SUPPORT. Don't take your frustrations out of the OP - she's done nothing wrong.

Thank you.

This is the same thing that happened back in 2005 to another member. The K3 was approved in 23 days and people just went on the attack. Just thought I would point out the statement that this never happens just isnt so.
