November 2009 filers

[that_girl 9]

Hey I'm grateful for you figuring out the way to check these. Did you ever talk to the Senator or Congress man? Oct 30 is already taken. See this. http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=ttO...OH-VZE2O76pOeLQ

Mmm, yes. How do I add my data to that spreadsheet?

Thanks!

(Can I email it to someone as an attachment?)

Also, are we planning on revisiting these to see what the changes are in a week or so?

And let's try not to turn on each other people (we can however turn on December and October filers, as they are the enemy!)

Lol...we are not the enemy.

We waited almost 4 months for our NOA2...and I would like to share some of the strategies that worked for us.

For months we watched the projected timelines slip away...and watched people get approved with filing dates prior to ours.

We became focused on what was going on with our petition, and everday we resented having to wait what seemd like an unfair amount of time.

We had two weeks together during Christmas..and we never dreamed back in Sept. that we would not have an NOA2 by Dec. The airport goodbye was very, very tough...because we had no idea what was going on with our petition or when we would see each other next.

We had completely twisted our own minds into knots of hopes and expectations based on the lightning quick approvals from Sept and October....but it was a situation we created for oursleves...hope junkies just getting a daily fix, with a heavy withdrawal pain. In reality if the USCIS website didn't exsist..or VJ..or anything that altered out expectations we would have just be finding ways to get by until 5 months rolled around..the offical processing time..and been happy to get it at five months.

We created our own misery, not USCIS, hell they have 5 months...and we were so angry because we didn't get ours in 32 days..lol

It made us sick...literally, and upset and a feeling of despair was common, mostly due to the complete lack of control we had over the situation.

Eventually we hit bottom...no NOA2 , no touch...nothing...just...nothing...and we made a choice to take a big break from VJ, and a big break from checking USCIS case status.

We choose instead to focus on those aspects of our lives which were in our control, making healthier food choices, building our immune systems with proper rest and nutrition...practicing accepting the situation....

It worked for us!.

The deep and serious fact of the matter is that NOA2 approval dates are completely out of our control...completely.

The lesson for us is to surrender to this reality and choose to take action where we had control, and could improve the quality of our life while waiting in whatever ways we could.

It really and truly sucked and was a lot of suffering , but we finally got approval, just as you will.

We realized that the waiting gave us an opportunity to grow together through a challenging time, and we must bring the type of support and skills to our marriage that we brought to our NOA2 waiting period.

After all that waiting...we got RFE...my divorce certitifcate did not say Absolute Decree....and we really had a bit of a big ole' miserable time waiting to see what the RFE was for and waiting for it to turn around...but we practiced acceptence , prayer, and staying positive... and got through it.

Seems like they are really screwing with Nov. petitions at VSC. It seems certain they have re-assigned staff who wrere assigned to work on 129f back in September. That sucks. You can be grateful that cal. and nebraska will be handling all the TPS visa!!

Sorry to hear you folks are getting the administrative shaft ...but there is great prayer that says:

"God Grant me the serenity to accept the things We cannot change ( VSC processing times) the courage to change the things We can ( our attitude and actions that will help us suffer less while waiting) and the wisdom to know he difference.

God bless and ..yes...stay positive...and yes...be strong..and yes...pray ( if so inclined) and avoid a 'victim' mentality that leads to futility, resentment, anger, fear, and depression!

Do as you will....but there are ways to lessen the misery :-). ..and yes..of course..it is always the people who have gotten NOA2 giving advice!

Hey guys, I'll take a day too, nov 2 if still free. Same question as megger, how should I add it to the spreadsheet?

To paraphrase AandD:

Fear leads to anger; anger leads to hate; hate leads to suffering, suffering leads to the dark side.

The dark side i'm fairly sure involves nuclear war with VSC

Hey all.

Im the other half of BadWolfProphecy, A November Filer.

I generally dont post much if anything here but I have been reading this thread and due to having a little time on my hands and using the info here I have gone through the first 1122 tickets issued on Nov 3rd. There are a total of 2022 by the way.

In the first 1122 there are 70 K1 I-129F applications.

57 are still in Initial review.

6 have been approved.

2 have denials.

5 have RFE's.

Yes a complete waste of time but as I said, I had the time. Will try and do the rest unless my IP gets banned and I cant keep punching in receipt numbers.

hi guys,

thx for the help.

pm me ur emails, and i'll give u rights to edit the spreadsheet.

I dont remember who is working on what date but i guess nov3-4 are free. im working on nov 5.

oct 26 - 30 - nov 11 are done. nov2-6 are being worked on

as for the "revisiting", would be cool to revisit the dates u worked on like twice a week, but depends of ur time.

Message for all who are helping : please create a sheet with the date u're working on, even if blank, and put "in progress", just to know that this date is taken.

thx all for the help, really appreciate it ^^

God I wish nuclear destruction of the VSC. It would be worth it to resend all of my papers to know every last lazy ####### there was exploded to pulp and hopefully a painful after life.

I wish I could edit my last post. I don't have that option for some reason. Of course I would never wish anyone any harm. I'm sorry if that post made anyone uncomfortable.

thx for ur work, i'll add that to the spreadsheet

[KisK 0]

Guys, the day I started working on turned out to be done, so I took on Oct 29 instead. Let me know if somebody has already done it.

[kenandakiko 0]

hi guys.. im a web designer and programmer. my NOA1 is on NOV 4th.. i was thinking of developing a database driven site so we can all log in and update the days and easly keep track and be able to view it from a website.. i will design the site just wondering if anyone is interested in inputing the data from the spreedsheet and helping keep track of all the and input each petition number from a certain day.. i could design a control panel to easly imput and maintain the petetions so we can all view it and get a clear idea of what is currently beeing processed.. with the software i would design it would be really easy to see what USCIS is currently working on if we all worked and keep it updated and inputed the k1 visas.. let me know what u guys think... thanks.
