I work for Customs and Border Protection/Department of Homeland Security and I am STILL waiting. :rofl: :rofl:

Why did I think you had to be a citizen first, to be able to work for CBP/DHS? Isn't that a Government agency?

They did say that nobody gets special treatment just because they know somebody.

Although most of what they say is false, I guess this one time they are right.

It is not necessary to post the same thread more than once nor is it useful to post in more than one forum. Triplicate thread without responses has been removed. Duplicate thread has been moved from US Citizenship forum and merged with existing thread in K-1 forum.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

not a K-1 process or procedure topic... moving thread

I would think that this case would be under more scruntiny because of your work affliations. We all must wait, but after the NOA2, things do speed up.

Good luck.
