Thanks to all of you guys.

It's difficult to express how it feels once you get that APPROVED mail. It's a feeling of relief, happiness, but yet some guilt that some of you guys are still waiting. Especially Wade who has now seen two approvals pass him by after he did all the hard work of digging out email addresses.

I urge you all to contact Barbara Velarde to see if she can help you. I have no idea what her position is, or where she hangs out, but it worked for Ron, and now us.

Keep the faith all of you - and generally ignore what you are told by USCIS. I think approvals will come, and soon.

We're not going anywhere, we'll be around to party on the next approvals!

Thanks again for ALL your support, we all need to stick together to get through this. good.gif

Some news: I just got off the phone with a Tier 2 person at USCIS...

They are now informing everyone that ALL petitions that were transferred from California to the Texas Service Center are "on hold" for 60 days beyond normal processing times. She explained that the average total time for our group will be 7 months. She seemed very aware that this was affecting a select group (namely us). No further explanation was provided.

I asked to have my petition transferred to another service center and was denied. I am calling my Congressman as I write this.

Well, my 60-day period will be over in just a week so we can check... I doubt though...

I'm confused about your previous post. I thought that denice.mitchell@dhs.gov was the person who replied to your email.

Hey read the threat better

Barbara is the Head honcho at Headquarters in Washington USCIS :bonk::bonk:

Denice Mitchell is the Supervisior at TSC

Barbara the one who got the fire going to Denice to do her job at TSC.

read all better and understand

Good Luck :thumbs::innocent::thumbs::innocent:

Hey RON!! THANK YOU!

Barbara and Denise seemed to do the business again. I'm hopeful these two are going to clear the minds a lot of worried people on here.

We're indebted to you and Wade. Thanks again.good.gif
