So,

after hearing everyones ecstatic experiences about getting their Senator or Congressman on their cases and getting immediate response or Noa 2, we tried.

And trust me, we tried all 3 of who we have.

So Congressman we inquired about 2 weeks ago, followed up on us with a Letter saying 4-6 Weeks it will take for them to get a Respond from USICS.

Senator 1 stated the same thing on the phone.

Senator 2 didnt say anything yet.

JUST GREAT, why is it so horrible to be a New York Resident ?????

in 6 weeks we most likely have the Noa 2 ourselves.Places us at 8 Months. Thank you <-<

Congressional staffers know it will take six or seven months. When they ask the question of USCIS and it is approved they take the credit for it although it was happening anyway. In my other life we would get congressional enquiries. They had absolutely no effect on the process other than we were obligated to answer them within 72 hours.

Second part of the equation is that our petitions are for non US citizens (non voters). Most (not all) congressional staffers will really just placate you, play nice, and try to keep your vote.
