Hey I certainly don't hate anybody, no need to be vindictive! I agree there are a lot of bitter June/July filers. No need for low-blows and telling us we should have all did what Wade did. Most of us did contact all the same people he did, but Wade had a very good case. It was bull that he wasn't approved months ago considering what he's going through.

I don't have a story like Wade, so I can't really complain much. BUT I would never wish a 7 month wait on anyone, so good luck post July filers, Im sure it will be a smooth ride.

read Mrs. T's comments and you tell me who's being vindictive.

who's vindictive? me or Fermat who says that we can kiss his @$$

get your facts straight before you go off in here.

Hey I got my facts straight. I honestly think Fermat was just being funny. I mean, it is sort of funny to say that you're going to virtually "come back over here" and add the bonking emoticon. :rolleyes: I mean, who takes that offensively?

And there were some other comments I didn't quite understand if they were being rude to Oct/Nov filers, or July filers, so I just skipped over it. A lot is lost in translation via the internet because you can't read tones virtually.

October/November filers will be fine! No need to worry about it, CSC is da' bomb.

Now can we all just have a virtual hug and be over it already? :cry:

boo hooo 36.000 messed up cases can't wait for longer so that you can get your NOA2 faster!!

Fermat ... LOOL

Right!!!Now from "I guess we are not going to get the aproval faster because the CSC will be packed with July/Aug. filers" they will settle for "hope to get it in time"

What goes around, comes around!! Like someone said ;)

Get a number and while you're at that let us know how the "drama" tastes like, maybe after seeing Dec./Jan. filers geting NOA2 before LOL

why do you keep coming here spreading your vindictiveness around?? If you don't like what is on this thread stay off..maybe your not getting approved because of your attitude..its called Karma..we are trying to stay happy and positive through this whole experience and support each other..maybe you should start your own thread ....or like the other guy said ..stop all this and have a group hug..I think we all joined this forum for the same purpose to get info and to help each other bring our loved ones over..

Hi guys, I'm just a visiting August filer (one of the CSC to TSC and back to CSC victims), and I felt like saying something. I know some people are very bitter from having waited so long and are taking it out on you guys a little bit. I understand the bitterness and frustration (I'm extremely upset myself, and I haven't been waiting as long as others, nor is my situation as dire as others' situations), but I also know that it's in no way your fault. I remember feeling incredibly impatient even a couple of months into the process – even though it's estimated to take five months, it's only natural to hope it will be quicker than that, and it hurts to be belittled by others who have been waiting longer, as if your own pain doesn't matter.

That said, it is only fair for us transfers (who were at CSC to begin with and should have already been adjudicated) to be processed first, and I know you guys know that. Honestly though, I don't think it should have too big of an impact on you. CSC is very efficient (in relative terms... we are talking about a government agency here), and they've promised to clear us out by March 1. I think almost all of you should still be approved within the five-month time frame (which, I know, feels like an eternity). I know you've heard this all before, but I felt like sharing some goodwill with you guys. I hope you don't have bad feelings towards the CSC-TSC-CSC transfers who are now jumping back in line ahead of you (back to where we should have been, really!), and please know that most of us don't have any bad feelings towards you! We're mostly just thinking of ourselves anyway and just hoping that USCIS is really going to follow through on their promises and that this nightmare will end soon.

The very best of luck to all of you!
