Back when the site underwent a massive move/upgrade/whatever you call it, for a while I'd be coded as anonymous when I logged in. That was nice; I liked the anonymity. But then it went away... why? I'd prefer to be a stealth member again, if possible. It felt cozy and safe, like a well-worn VJ blanket. Was it an accident, my anonymous status before? Might I earn it back again... please...? Or is it just a button I need to click somewhere? Do advise!

E

Me (Indiana) & Him (Fes, Morocco)

Summer 2002: Met in Morocco
Summer 2004: Began work on 129f; joined VJ rather than hiring a lawyer

I-129f Submission & Approval
Oct 19, 2004: I-129f to VSC
Oct 29: NOA2 online -- approved in 6 days, 10/23 to 10/29!

From NVC to Consulate & All the Way Home...
Nov 8, 2004: Case to Casablanca
Feb 23: Interview; CO said they'll call in 2-3 weeks
Mar 2: Casa calls; visa in hand the next day!
Mar 24: Arrival at JFK; over four hours waiting, but got an EAD
April 15, 2005: Married

AOS
Aug 10, 2005: AOS/EAD/AP to Chicago
Nov 12: AOS prints taken

2006, 2007, 2008, 2009:
EAD renewals often delayed. (?)
Info-Pass officials will say only that "other authorities" are handling our case; we eventually got our Senator's office involved
Spring 2009: A letter arrives, saying his 2005 fingerprints have expired and need to be updated. We head down to Indy and get his prints redone.
June 2009: We FINALLY get the AOS interview letter just shy of FOUR YEARS since submission of AOS application...

July 2009: after the interview, his 10-year Green Card arrives. Alle-freaking-luia.

N-400

Application in progress, 2015. We divorced in 2012 but are still good friends. E is helping organize H's application for Naturalization... fingers crossed!

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

On the subject of privacy, any way we can disable the "Last Active" text in a user profile? That did not exist in the old version and it is annoying for people to know whether I logged on or not.

no one gives a rat's azz arijit...for your information :D

Even if you log in with the Anonymous box checked, your Last Active entry gets updated. That's not so anonymous.

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.

I think of anonymous as just not showing what thread I'm in. I don't care if anyone knows when I've last looked in here...
