Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between September 12, 2012 and September 17, 2012.

VSC.....Vows Seriously Changed.....

[Galla 1]

Im happy for all the people that are approved and my heart goes out to all of you still waiting.

Im on the other hand panicking about our RFE- what do they want, what if our hardcopy will be late or lost, when we send it back will it be done fast or will it take the dreaded 60 days period that they are entitled to drag out if they want to?

This whole thing is so hard! And nobody around understands. If I hear another - Dont worry, it will come.. it will be done in due time.. or the worst- when its meant to be?!!

Cant wait for that visa to be in my passport! I will fly out next day

This stuff is just insane .... This is the first time I have dealt with the Federal Government aside from paying taxes and getting a passport... I never knew things could be this bad in the age of computers... We need someone in VSC who cares about people, individually, ... and would make it their job to handle these types of cases... there isn't anyone who cares

Yes you're right ... and as long as there is no accountability, there is no reliable system. Pretty sad isn't it.

You are right. This is not the US government's well oiled machine. 99% of America has no idea this is even here.

Hello! just sharing this information that i got from my friend Evee Tam, her friend had an interview from one of the filers who had a chance to talk to the Director of VSC...

Why is VSC taking so long, what happened? >>> We had problem with labor last year and lost many workers, we hired more last November and it took some time to get them trained. Some of the petitions were sent to California and we also assign people to different tyopes of visas. They will concentrate on one tyoe, get behind on another and then shift many people back to the other type. Lately we have shifted many, almost all, adjudicators to I-129fs, so that should make people happy. They will do that until they get caught up. Summer is a busy time for I-129fs, usually about June we get slammed with them. The winter or early spring is the slowest time for I-129fs, b

ut then it depends what they have everyone working on also.

OK, why can't we get through to you? >>>The 1-800 line is useless. Those are contract employees and they are trained to select answers from a menu of 14 answers. They pick which one is best for your question. There are thousands of visas being processed at any time and everyone is special and everyone has special circumstances and if we had direct lines we weould do nothing but field requests by petitioners to give them priority, we just can't do it. How would you feel if your petition got bumped because some woman called and cried on the phone and then her petition got moved up ahead of yours. We simply have to operate in a way that avoids any chance of fraud, corruption or unfairness.

So what about some people get approved ahead of others? >>>Sme petitions have problems or delays, we do not hold back others for this. If an adjudicator has problems, he puts that one aside or sends an RFE and goes on to the next. The next one may be clean and gets approved right away, in just a few minutes, they adjudicate 15-20 petitions a day per person, and the ones with problems may wait weeks for the petitioner to respond to the RFE, or maybe it is a name check they are waiting for. Petitions are assigned as they arrive, when we are working on those petitions, but they do not go out the door in the same order they came in..

What about the consulates?>>> Consulates do what they do, as I said, some are bastards. They get whatever we get when it is sent on. I can't tell you what NVC and consulates do, I know some are terrible and some are really easy, but I do not know all the details of each. Kiev is easy, western Europe is easy, Nigeria is horrible, but you would not believe the scams from Nigeria, I get jaded. I am surprised a lot of them get visas and then we have to deal with them.

Yes, the original post is from 2009, so some of the information seems to be outdated.

Hello Guys,

I am an April but I have been watching this forum. Today, I have decided to join the fight.

-I would like to inform you that I have send an email to Mr alejandro.mayorkas@dhs.gov who is the director of USCIS. Couple pages from the igor list were included to show the alarming discrepancy between VSC and its counterpart CSC. My point was to make them understand that we salute the Obama dream act -which is suppose to be the cause of our delay- However, we are tax payers and we paid some fees for the I129F. They delay is hurting us, most of us would like to spend New-year with our soon-to be spouses. Why Americans should hurt fellow Americans for some illegals?

Here is his email address:alejandro.mayorkas@dhs.gov Please be polite and let flood him with emails. if you prefer to fax him:202-272-8118

Let's flood him with emails maybe, he will wake those VSC adjudicators up.

Good morning Marchies! I'm officially sitting at 200 days as of today. Sigh.

[Nick + Elizabeth 54]

Well, another Friday. Let's hope for a ton of approvals so we're not all left with a black cloud hanging over us for the weekend! I can't bear another two days of no action....

When I woke this morning... I wanted to hear this song by Justin Bieber As long as you love me....

I'm under pressure,

seven billion people in the world trying to fit in

Keep it together,

smile on your face even though your heart is frowning

But hey now, you know girl,

We both know it's a cruel world

But I will take my chances

[Chorus]

As long as you love me

We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke

As long as you love me

I'll be your platinum, I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold

As long as you love, love me, love me

As long as you love, love me, love me
