Bad news from Senator regarding NOA 2's from Vermont

[ap24 0]

I agree that there is a lot of misinformation being spread out there by many different people, including our own representatives. The facts are that no one knows how these cases will be processed at this point and we will not know until the cases actually start being processed, approved, and reapproved.

It is still a good thing to put pressure on your representatives, USCIS, NVC and consulate to let them know we are disastisfied with our government. The more of us that get involved and get active with the abovementioned entities, the better off we will be.

Any guesses about the order of processing is pure speculation at this point.

Specter was the first one I called. I have since called Rick Santorum's office and Congressman Platts office. Both seemed to show a lot of interest when I spoke with them, but I am not counting on anything at this point. When I spoke with Santorum's office the second time, they didn't seem to understand what was going on. They "seemed generally concerned" that I was approved back in April, then had my petition recalled. Both had me fax all my information to them. I figure it doesn't hurt anything to keep trying. I will be no worse off if nothing comes of this.

I will let everyone know if I hear anything back.

Thanks very much!

I also will keep everyone informed. I have contacted all of my congresspeople and they are in the process of looking into it at this point, I probably won't get any info for at least a week or two. My expedite request was sent in on June 19th, the USCIS gave me no info about their response. My lawyer says just be patient, the NOA2s are being processed slower due because they had to get back to the service centers and be reunited with the original files to be put in the system. He also says that sometimes he gets the rfe and sometimes his client does, there seems to be no pattern whatsoever to what the USCIS is doing. Most likely it just has to do where the petition is and how easy it is to be logged back into the system.

NOA2s are starting to get their cases back in the system, this is a good thing. After reading most of these posts, it seems at this time only one of the VJ NOA2s has received an email that they are getting the RFE at this point but many other are starting to get emails that their cases are being looked at. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Thanks again!

This week was a good one for me emotionally.

I recieved a touched 3 times, on 6/27, 6/29 and 6/30.

And today, finally, something arrived via snail mail. Another I-797 to let me know the case has been reopened.

My case was reopened on June 22. I then received one touch on Saturday June 24. Nothing since then. Trying to wait patiently... I just don't understand why they couldn't just send me the RFE when they touched my case on the 24. It could be one more that they get done. Why put it off. How long could it take to send the RFE, like 1 minute!? Why touch my case at all, it was already approved, and I didn't use an IMB. I wrote a two page letter on how we met and our relationship up until we turned in the I-129. It's just rediculus that people that have met in person many times and espceially over a couple year span are treated like this. I have nothing to hide, and really I could care less if my financee sees that I don't have a criminal record, just get the ball moving!

At least I will never have to go through this again after this, but I can't keep spending money going to see her We need our money for moving expenses. Whoever is in charge of USCIS should be terminated with no pension for their lack of readiness. I hope they rot in hell, for the pain they are putting all of us through..

I know what you mean about simply sending the RFE. Just send the damn thing. Just......send.......it.

For the mother of love just send it.

Yeah, I enjoy going to Poland, as long as I have extra money to burn, haha. My Fiancee and I spent new years in Zakopane, and I sure I will be going back soon, however it would be nice to save a few bucks if she could have just come at the end of July like we had orginally planned. A plane ticket at this time of the year to Poland (flying to Berlin), would run around 900-1000, money I would rather spend on our wedding, apartment, etc. It looks like I will have have to spend that money, as it doesn't appear that she will be able to come for a least two more months...

Well Chertoff is in charge of the Department of Homeland Security of which the USCIS is a part.

My fiancee told me once that Chertoff sounds like a Russian name, and that "Chert-" means "devil". This could explain a lot.

if i am not mistaken all cases are assigned numbers and are processed by different people. There is no line that you get into to have your visa processed. There is no single file line. Many lines exist and each person processing your file works at a different pace.
