:rofl: speaking of getting screwed all around, i can't view the video- a message reads "this video contains content from sony music entertainment. it is not available in your country."

Got the same message. Sony Music obviously doesn't like Canada and India. headbonk.gif

I know now they will use this weather as an excuse. BUT! What about the past 7 months before the weather? If they are closed all week i might seriously have a stroke. I am sick from this whole thing. I cant eat, and when i do, im sick. I cant sleep, when i do i have nightmares. And, i really cant function. My whole life feels like a movie that i am not in... i just go through the motions. My son thinks his father is a computer screen.

I know that this is a public forum, I believe that anything that I post is not illegal nor should be held against me in order to hold all parties responsible for poor communication, 20 different versions of WHY our cases are delayed by USCIS, etc.............

Is it possible to add more insult to injury??

Got a reply from the Congressman's office in DC:

Dear SSgt. Grant,

My email was in response to the email you sent to us through our website. I have been in brief contact with the District office and this is what they have sent me:

Since this is a city issue, not a federal issue, it is outside of our jurisdiction. I looked on the HBPD website and found the following information that may be helpful to him (copied from attached pdf):

IF DISSATISFIED WITH THE RESULTS, WHAT CAN BE DONE?

If the complainant believes that the investigation was not thoroughly investigated and believes

that justice was not served, he or she has several recourses. In most instances, the

complainant's dissatisfaction may be remedied by contacting the Professional Standards Unit,

who can answer questions regarding the investigation. If the complainant is still dissatisfied

with the investigation results, he or she is encouraged to contact the Chief of Police. If the

complainant seeks further redress, they may contact the Huntington Beach City Council, The

City Administrator, or in some cases, the Orange County District Attorney's Office or the

Grand Jury.

HUH???

I replied with this:

Hi Ms. Preston,

I am really confused right now. My concern and compliant is with USCIS and the handling of my wife's I-130 petition and the subsequent approval to expedite the petition due to my son's health problems.

Why would this be a city issue?

Please clarify.

And then this:

SSgt. Grant,

I apologize for the confusion. The email I sent you was actually meant for another constituent that I have been emailing today – I have called the District Office about your case and was told that they have been sending information to Tony Capitelli.

Again, I'm sorry about the confusion, but if I do receive anything regarding your specific case, I will let you know – hopefully you will hear from the District Office before me.

WOW, loosing faith quite rapidly that this will be handled properly. It seems like a comedy of errors all around..............

There should be no doubt in anybody's mind why I am teetering on the edge on sanity.

This whole experience is SUCH a huge disappointment. I too am concerned regarding gross mishandling of our cases. It seems like all it takes is one "boilerplate error" to send a petition reeling uncontrollably down a bureaucratic spiral, the recovery from which could take a minimum of 7 months, if not longer.

Of course what makes it worse is us being kept in the dark.

Some of you guys know by now that I'm a physician. What do you think would happen if I told you that I'll give you your diagnosis in 5 months, in the meanwhile emailing and texting you a bogus diagnosis, only to partially retract that diagnosis, only to give different estimates as to when I'll get around to actually giving you your real diagnosis each time you called me? :no:

you can learn something from USCIS and when we call put a service request and say these magic words 30 day, 45-60 days, 120 days, 9-12 month.

Would lying about what dates TSC is currently processing qualify?
