I've tried my best to make since out of a crazy screwed up process. I've tried my best to give sanity back to the insane. I have no problem waiting my turn. The only thing that discourages me in just the little bit. Is the slow or lack of approvals. At this rate they'll still be processing the Marchers in December!! #######!! They should be cranking these things out like 10 a day or more. Maybe some other forum is having all the luck. Maybe it's just coincidence that we've (VJ) only had 1 approval today (I think). This is where I throw my hands up in the air and say "#######!!" where are all the approvals?????

I just expected to see approvals at a faster rate and needed to vent for everyone.

P.S. I still believe in the within 60 day theory, but damn!! sooner than later would be nice.

See why we are all venting so much. There is no true answers, logic, or fairness. It only gets worse with each passing day.

I'm buying a Ticket to see my baby too!! I'm getting it for October. I hope to hear something before then. I only wanted to buy one ticket and that was for the Interview. I was hoping for a November interview. At this rate, who knows. The good thing about buying the ticket now is it's cheaper. If we end up hearing something I can always move the ticket to a later date for a small price. If we don't hear anything, ohh well!! I guess I'll have to buy two tickets and go twice. No problem when trying to build a nest egg for a marriage. right?? but I have to see my baby!!

Same here...I wanted to be able to save some money so I can go with her to the interview, maybe spend some time at my parent's old stomping ground, see her family and then come home with her but the longer we have to wait, either the more desparate we become or God forbid, we start to lose interest and faith. To me, it's a piss poor way for USCIS to regulate the number of immigrants.....makes me wanna take my chances and live with her at her place. I'm about to go wailing at something just to hit it and take out all this frustration. Damn...I'm running out of things to do online with my girl. I know she is too. ####### CIS!!! Pull your heads out of your a**es and bust out them NOA2s so we can live our lives sometime this century!

Also, associate it with the VJ group! This way our family will get stronger...

Hey Andy,

The way I've been figuring, since the end of last month when they processed the big wave, they have been going at a pretty steady clip of 25 - 28 per week. Through June, there are about 220 VJ'ers left. So, I think all of us through June should be processed in the next 7 weeks??

In what order? Who knows.

Amen Brother!

All I can say is.......... I can't wait until all you Marchers and Aprilers are out of the way!! MOVE!! MOVE!!! :lol: I'm sure you wish the same too. Don't worry, I'm not insane. I'm patiently waiting and have no reason to be upset or worried.

I just thought we would see a higher rate of approvals, sooner than later. I know that we will all get approved, and the NOA2's are coming. "I put my trust in a higher power".

I am really frustrated too at this point (CSC march 27th, IMBRA RFE july17th). I cannot believe that we are being subjected to this while there are 1000 jumping the border everyday. For me it's basic logic: if people are trying to do things legally chances are they are honest about the relationship (hence the reason you do not see many denials), if we were really croked (a terrorist, thief, whatever) why bother?? just go to mexico, pay a couple of bucks and sure enough you'll be here in no time!!!

It seems to me that the whole process is ridiculous, from start to finish given the reality of immigration in the USA at this time.

Why prove we have met? honestly who cares? is that their business? do we as tax payers really want to spend money in finding out if two people met or not? do a background check on both applicant and benificiary and get it over with...Proof on intent? are you kidding me I have been waiting for 150+ days and they still doubt my "intent".

Sorry for venting but this honestly is RIDICULOUS!!!!

LOL! I guess I never saw it before, but now I see that Andy filed at VSC, not CSC! That prolly means that hes gonna get approved by the end of this week....and Ill have to wait until May of 2009. (Sarcasm)

Seriously though...this whole process makes less and less sense every day...the only thing that keeps me from going insane with the waiting is reading this forum. Its hard enough to wait, but at least I know we are all waiting together, and Im not alone.

And I don't think there's anything wrong with wishing the Marchers and Aprilers were out of the way. I bet they wish too!! and don't worry! I've got plenty of wait in me. It's only been 24 day's since they've had my RFE. I'm giving them 60 before I say ####### about me!!

:yes::thumbs:

I get frustrated when I see July people moaning about USCIS when the March/April peeps are pretty patient. Frustrated but not posting & whining. No offense meant, just trying to keep others' feelings in mind...hence, the reason I never posted a thread when I got my NOA2.

Well, I think your making it pretty clear you have your NOA2 in this thread whether you posted a separate thread or not, and IMO it doesn't matter what month you filed your petition, we are all on this board for the same reason, and if someone feels like they need to vent, by all means, let them vent, without telling them they are wrong for doing it, because others have waited longer than they have. That is what we are here for to support one another. Not to take our frustrations of this process out on each other.

Andy,

I just wanna give you a big hug. you and all of us march/april people. (L):clock:

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
