Evanscholly.... go to Igor's list and sort by ALL filers... like I said earlier it seems to me that adjudicators take a box off the shelf of maybe 20 or so files +plus the ones that are not members here on VJ and work that box is some order. To me that is why the approvals are grouped the way they are. So, no, I dont think you have to get your congressman involved yet... but this is just the way I see the data... Just a little more patience... thats all... (that said... your SOs country is a harder one, if I remember correctly.)

Linda, see your PM

Hey everybody! how you doing today?? :) I need some help guys :help: , do some of you knows a lawyer to see what to do? I have 33 days now 25 to appeal or file again, I know this is not the topic here but you are my family and I need you... :crying:

I'm getting crazy!!! :wacko:

Linda :unsure:

are you sure you need a lawyer? I read that your denial was because you didn't send enough evidence of meeting with your application. If it was me - I would re-file the entire thing, this time following the guidelines that are posted on this website. There's a checklist to follow to make sure you have all of the correct documents.

Having said that, I interviewed 3 different lawyers before making the decision to do this myself. Sarah May Cross is the one I was most impressed with. I just think, personally, lawyers tend to delay the entire process and if you are careful and thorough, you should be able to do this yourself.

I hope mentioning her name wasn't a violation of TOS.....

03/26/09 : NOA1

09/23/09 : NOA2

11/13/09 : APPROVED and visa in hand!!!

Missy, you know what gets me.... assuming we have the correct info... I believe they should have gotten an RFE and as such should be able to use that process... but then... I am not a lawyer nor do I play one on TV :)

I wouldn't worry about a violation of the TOS... others have done it...

Thanks so much, this waiting period have been the most tiring period of my life, can't wait till it's over, i did go to Igor's list and currently I am 91 and I do understand that my SO's country is a harder one but i don't think God has created anyone He cannot handle and USCIS and CO from the American Embassy in Nigeria or anywhere else will never be an exception. I hope things works out for Linda, she is such a sweet person and also for you, i appreciate all your encouraging words on this forum.

Will they have to pay again to re-file, just because they may have forgotten to send a few pictures?? Did I understand what's missing correctly?

and it is $585 sheesh

Wouldn't it just be cheaper and faster to re-file? And I agree, they should have received an RFE, unless there was just too much left out of the packet. I will confess something - until I found this website, I had interviewed lawyers and was going that route, decided we could do it ourselves, started filling out forms and THEN I found VJ. That is whenI discovered that I only had about half of what we needed.

If they didn't follow the guidelines here, there is a very good chance a lot of stuff was just left out. The government's instructions are.......really vague and difficult to understand and don't include everything that you really need.

Yes, the way I understand it is they would have to pay again and refile... or submit a I-290B and pay $585... the website says 6 months... but so does the 129F take 6 months also... so to me... it would be which stands a better chance of getting it done right and faster...

Thanks everybody for your interest!!!! you make me feel so supported!!! :energy:

Well we never recieved any RFE and yes we didn't send any evidence :cry: , just the forms, the thing I'm wondering is if they are telling me that my 2 options are appeal or motion, would be a mistake refile? I mean the uscis could take this like a contempt or disrespect for not following the rules and denied it again? :blink: cuz if don't we going just to file again...

Sorry again everybody I know this is not the topic here :ot: but to me all you are the most supportive and awesome brothers and sister on VJ!!!! :wow:

God bless you all always and give you the happiness forever!!! :innocent:
