Working on Congressional Draft Letter to USCIS Oversight Committee

[Amor1 0]

Update for Draft Letter **I love the idea of adding the spreadsheets. That's concrete evidence that there are many of us being subjected to unexplained delays. I am inspired to write a letter that states the facts clearly and gets the attention and hopefully, support of members of the US Congress.

I will start working on the draft letter and upload by Friday. If you, or other VJers have additions, just respond, and I'll get them. The point, I think, is to have a letter that several of us send to the members of Congress who sit on the "oversight" committee for USCIS. There is such a committee, and they should know that we followed the guidelines for submitting our petitions very strictly, respecting the work of the USCIS and putting faith in our government's systems. We believed that we would be treated fairly, and that our spouses and children could come here to the United States legally. Most important, we had faith that the process would be humane in terms of the time frame. So far, many of us have seen others get approvals/responses in general, faster than what they assert is their normal, just order--"first in-first out" and therein lies our deepest fears and roots of frustration. Sorry to be long-winded, but I get this way when I think of how long our separations have been. All the best--Amor1
