anthony have you been checkin your mail regularly? I know this is so hard, try to be as patient as you can! may I ask what's wrong with your background and why you think that could be the reason why they are takin longer to approve you? have your case been touched?

Nothing is actually wrong with my background, but the job I had before in the government was a high profile and high security related job. not sure if that might play a role in why it is taking so long for me.

I called USCIS today and asked them to check on my case since I was coming up on the 5 month marker. And they told me to just wait until next month to call back since I have not passed 5 months yet. OMG!!!! what is a couple of weeks. Why could they just not go and check? So I guess I am stuck waiting until either I get an approval letter in the next couple of weeks or start calling them after the 5 month date passes. :angry: either way I am not happy about it.

I think I am at the end level for patience. Anyone have any good remedies for frustration LOL!!!!!

Try calling them again Jesal, I actually just gave them my and my wife's email addresses about 5 minutes ago and I've only had my NVC # a couple of days. I spoke with a pretty nice lady on the phone, which I wasn't expecting for some reason.

I am agreeing with you JD because it doesn't make any sense. i just hope they don't give me a hard time. last year i breezed right through but my wife now stayed an extra month here and had to go back for an emergency. we didn't have time to adjust her status so that is why she stayed longer but just a month. we were going to do it before she left but she needed to go.
