June 2008 Filers!

[panterchen 1]

Very happy for you guys!!

I read somewhere that the online case status must have some time lag that would explain why today things are changing.

If not...it must be the smileys... :angry: :angry: :angry:

At this point I am willing to do anything that might bring answers.....

And I can completely relate to those of you who haven't been approved yet and have NOA1 dates at the beginning of June. This whole system is wack! Okay I'm through venting now...haha. Hope to see some action for those of us who have been waiting almost 5 months now!

Oh and CONGRATS to those of you that got approvals today!!!! Hopefully they are getting out the beginning of June filers now

Can someone please tell me if an RFE is sent to the petitioner as well as your attorney? If so can i be the one to send it back rather than our attorney?

Thanks,

I don't know if they send you one or not. I would think they are expecting to send and receive everything through your attorney. I saw your earlier post about removing the attorney. I don't know what it takes to get the attorney off the case, and that might even muck things up a bit, but there's no reason you can't find out from the attorney what the RFE was and what you need to satisfy it. Then you can supply the attorney with whatever that might be, and maybe specify that you want to have it sent back UPS Overnight or something and you want the tracking number--even if you pay the fee for it. They ought to be able to do at least that for you.

From what I've read, approvals are just a day or two after USCIS receives the information back, so you're probaby right on the edge. That tracking number will give you some piece of mind knowing that they actually got it, and not wondering if the attorney has even got it out the door yet.

As distasteful as it is, it might be better to take the attorney off the case after you have your approval, rather than risk further delay while USCIS tries to get your case adjusted mid-stream, unless USCIS can assure you that it is no problem, but I didn't get that from your other post. LoL I think that after NOA2, it all pretty much switches focus to the beneficiary, so the attorney is probably mostly out of the picture anyway at that point.

Coaster thanks so much for the reply. Our problem is we have the attorney from hell and don't want him doing anything at all to our case ever again if possible. I've sent a lot of emails out and made a lot of posts so hopefully someone who has gotten an RFE with an attorney can answer this for us.

I would just like to ask that everyone not flood the boards with envy when someone gets approved. I know this is very difficult seeing approvals while waiting, but please remember the golden rule. now having said that we have had 2 June filers get approved this morning almost back to back and that gives us all hope Congratulations to Coaster and PSLove...enjoy it guys you give us all hope!

Unreal....

I know no one is going to believe this...

I just checked status before making that last post. Status still showed pending and Oct 24 last update. So I think, "Well, I just put the smileys, so I'll hit USCIS one more time and then do a little shopping. I log in, see that the date had changed to Oct 25 and click the link...

Application Type: I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)

Current Status: Approval notice sent.

On October 24, 2008, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

I have no idea why that is showing Oct 24 on the approval date, coz 10 mins ago it was still pending, but what do I care at this point hehehe.

Woohoo!!!!! Thank you Lord!! Good luck and prayers to all still waiting.! And make liberal use of the mad smiley!!!

Coaster and PS love: Congratulations!! I'm a july filer and just want to wish all june filers all the best and hope you all get approved soon!
