Outside Normal Processing Times

I don't beleive that Senator can help.

I read many posts here and they just give people promisses, that's it.

Today is 191 days since my NOA1.

I called USCIS a week ago and they told me to wait 60 days to get answer.

I am so upset with Vermont.

hi everyone, well i understand all our your frustration, as i have been waiting 7 and a half months now - and no update. my hubby sent a letter to congresswoman but we heard nothing from them. I told my hubby to send it again but i guess he thinks they cant do anything since they just ignored us - its kind of disheartening.

good luck to us all..........

I am sorry to hear of so many waiting so long for adjudication and approval. This post was meant as a means that others should be able to benefit from actions that are available once one petition goes past the normal processing time.

I do hope that for those that have an extended period without approval contact their respective congressman/lady's immigration representative and ask them to inquire as to the status of their individual case. One would have felt by now

that with all the requests that must come the way of congressmen and lady's that they themselves would be a little tired of this and bring about the radical change that would appear to be necessary.

US citizens are paying for this immigration service and to the best of my knowledge are very vocal in complaining when service fails to reach an acceptable standard. If 6 months is an acceptable time for the processing of an I 130 then ok just sit and wait it out if not then you have the right to voice your opinion where it counts and should do so.

I often hear oil the squeaky wheel with regards to inquiring about ones case.. This wheel needs replacing lol

We sincerely hope all couples displaced for such lengthy periods get re-united soon.

Best wishes

Arthur and Roberta

I am thinking how effective it could be if we all those are waiting 6 months or more get together, write letters and sign it collectively , and then send a copy to Michelle Obama (white house), all the four service centers and the USCIS head office in DC, and the DHS.

may be then we can scan it and send a copy to Obama's Secret blackberry >>>

But i am serious. I never think anyone will look into the F'd up American immigration system. when you think of the system, dont you feel the blooed gushing to your brain ??? c'mon!!!!!!!!! Why, you may think, i am spewing at Immigration? cuz, i have seen enough of it for the past 18 years.

contact CIS ombudsman, they are Govement agency keeping an eye on USCIS.

Go to their website and fill out a form DHS Form 7001, they will work with USCIS to resolve your case.

It has worked twice for me.
