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.

I was actually thinking the same thing. if got a bunch of people to sign a letter and sent it off maybe then they might do something. then again it might do more harm than good.

This TSC nonsense has just made me do something I didn't want to do: I bought an expensive plane ticket to go visit my husband in February. It was the only thing I could do to take away some of this stress! But I'm still planning to contact my senator in Jan. to see what happens...

Guys, you can email TSC. First it is required that you call but then you can email. I called - but I am not satisfied with the answer, and with the fact that they give different answers to different people. At least, shoot them an email, express your frustration (of course, politely)! We need to bug them as often as possible.

Although I did receive my NOA2 from TSC (11/23), I have yet to receive my NVC Case #. Seems like no matter what stage we are in there is always a long WAIT! Now I'm thinking that my paperwork got lost between Texas and New Hampshire. Here's praying all of you will receive your NOA2's SOON! Also, the only phone nr listed on my NOA2 for TSC is: (800) 375-5283.

Guys, I was just wondering and thinking some crappy ways to help us getting out of this mess...

Is it worth if we file for K3 at this time (most of us are now on 5 month mark), I know K3 is just a dead end, but I heard USCIS is generally process K3 and CR1 together, and if that is true, then CSC will receive our K3 petetion and they will inquire about pending CR1 for perticular application and that may trigger approvals for these long time pending files ??????

What do you think ???

I know this may be bad idea but that is what I want to know, if this is bad or good ??
