April/May? Seriously, what the hell do you know? You sound like a complete a@@hole for posting here. With all due respect, I'm tired of people who got their NOA2 in 86 days but did not file until 2

If my sister was working at DHS, I wouldn't wait 6-months then send an email to somebody at USCIS in DC. That's just me though. I'm not buying any of this tomfoolery.

Ok so are you saying you had their petition numbers and all other info to tell to those people so they are approved faster? Sorry but total BS! Or are you saying they came here to this thread, READ i

Wow, almost 5 more pages to go through........

As stated earlier today, I had an interview with Cindy Carcamo of the Orange County Register about this whole USCIS screw up. The paper took an interest in my story due to my sons health condition. The interview was much longer than I expected, probably because she was "old school" and took notes on a note pad, she did a lot of writing, LOL

I provided her with a copy of the Alert that was posted on USCIS website the other day, all pertinent emails for everyone that I had contacted at USCIS and other documents from USCIS. All in all about 3/4 in thick!!

She took interest in how my Congressman had basically ignored my plea for help, I threw him under the bus big time. Someone that I previously met many years ago and HAD respect for. He lost quite a few votes due to his inaction.

I provided her a link to this thread a few weeks back and she has been here reading.

I brought up waitingonthelords specific situation and Rachel's roller coaster ride yesterday and today.

The article will be in print and online soon, she was not able to give me a specific date but assured me it would be published. I am about to send her some pictures to include in the article, she wants a wedding pic and some other misc pics.

As soon as the article is posted online, I will let you guys know. Although we have some traction now, it would be advisable to comment on the story when it is available.

Good luck all!!

Woot Woot! Alright, Sgt Wade! I would say that was a success. Can't wait to see this article. As I said last night, thanks for being a voice for all of us! :thumbs:

AND.... in uniform (if applicable) :devil:

Lol! :devil:

Thank you guys for encouraging me to stay positive with all my mixed emotions this evening. I feel like my two year old son, throwing a crying fit because I didn't get what I wanted.

I have to keep my head up.

Goodnight! I'm Praying for more approvals for thos who hasn't gotten any yet at TSC or for all of us being moved back to CSC. Also praying that those who have "moved on" actually get to move on..and get to NVC and get those case #'s!!

We deserves this!

It's probably too late now for the article to help us BUT we still have to go through NVC and the respective Embassies. Having the article in print may help if any of you run into any problems at all with then next two phases.

I also hope a local attorney reads it and explores a class action, honestly I hate ambulance chasers but you have to take advantage of them like they take advantage of us.
