UGH! Stop. At the risk of being flamed by everyone, and being a visajourney member myself, I still have to ask if you guys could keep this stuff offline and off the forum? This can't be the only way y

I can only imagine the dread that April and May filers must be thinking. The same things we did when we saw February people waiting 200 days. The denial... "Oh, surely they will catch up by us?" or th

In honor of the amazing super fast VSC rep holding our case hostage, I've written a poem. It is to the tune of "You're a Mean One, Mister Grinch". I call it, "Ode to Mister Sloth". You're a slow one,

Hey Marchies... don't you think there should be a Pinned thread at the top of the K1 thread with this warning? :innocent:

TAKE HEED

You are about to embark on a journey that will test the limits of your patience. It will test your relationship. You will feel completely powerless and blind. You will have to endure being separated from your loved one, who will also be just as frustrated. Some have fallen along the way, but more have survived, and are here to help you. This forum will become your invaluable source of information, resources, knowledge and wisdom. Your fellow filers will become your confidants, your support group, your lifeline. Use the guides provided to send in your packet. Then, prepare to wait. Yes, it really will take months to get an answer. Plan on the longest time estimated. If it happens earlier, you'll be that much more surprised! Find the thread for your month of filers, and also find understanding that family and friends just can't empathize with. USCIS is a beast, but you have the tools at your disposal here to conquer it. If you feel you have what it takes to survive USCIS, continue on...

LOVE your constant optimistic attitude! (L)

I am not optimistic. You know how after being stressed out for such a long time you just laugh at yourself? There is nothing left... O woke up in the morning with a feeling that today's gonna be the day! But apparently it's not :( Hopefully, they work on Friday, or in their case Freeday. :bonk:
