Well as far as I am concerned we have the God given right to be a pis*y right now. If they would have been through what we have they would feel the same way. Since, I do not have to live with them the rest of my life. I really don't care if they can feel my frustration because they would be calling everyday also. Besides they took the job and they need to deal with it

Case complete............

And then I woke up from a good nap....

Very real, felt real.

Here is my story. I've lived problem free life, payed my taxes. One day I decided to marry this girl. But to do so would require her to come to US of A, and so it started. My problem free live turned in to free problems from USCIS! Sure things turned to unsure, certain dates turned to aproximation within months. All logical thinking was out the door, as I filed my papers withing famous Vermont Centre!

:rofl: thanks ling ling.. you know i will too. I even asked "my friend got his case in the system the same day as mine was and he has a case complete and you're telling me mine isn't even in review yet?" her reply "your friend is very unusual :huh: WTH???" i said ok and bit my tongue. and wished her a good day. :bonk:

I told you they know Nimche :innocent:

Not only NVC knows about your recent behaviors but even USCIS knows it. Go to their website and read your name all over the place.

Taking out USCIS frustration on NVC doesn't make any sense. They didn't make us wait and these guys are so much more efficient and professional it isn't fair to be pissy with them over someone else's mistakes and delays. You shouldn't forget about being a good person just because you experienced something unpleasant with Vermont and USCIS. You should instead be grateful that you're dealing with a far better department and that you're almost through with immigration.

I agree with you, but boy immigration process is hell. There is no other way to describe it!!

He is out of control. He wrote me good morning 3AM EST while I was sleeping in my messenger.

Dr. Ling Ling, I don't know when you will be over with this but you need to start prescribing those stuff.

If you want to get rid of a palm tree in your backyard, you get rid of it when it is still little not wait till it’s so big that when you cut the trunk, it destroys you house.

I am not sure if that came right but what I meant was Ling Ling we need to touch up that shortcut little more.

I added more links the other day and I am going to add even more soon.

** Do we need to create another new thread to let people know or you will arrange for the front cover of NY Times?

Spreadsheet updated.

And no I don't have an interview yet, but of course I knew this already. And I really wish I hadn't called, because as anticipated I've now slipped back into that obsessive state where I can't think of anything else and feel nauseous all the time. I hate the waiting. The NVC stage was good, because it moved as fast as you did and you always had updates available, unlike USCIS where you submit your petition then fall into a black hole until you're either approved, denied, or RFE'd. But now its another heavy helping of just waiting and not being able to do anything to control the outcome.

I'm not particularly good at that whole "accept the things I cannot change" thing... lol
