March (2012) filers...

[TigerFlower 61]

I wanted to apologize for being rude and my impolite language... It was just too much to bear. Thanks for all the encouragement (Tigerflower, elyhim and justinandoksana). Hopefully we'll have a Friday full of approvals

NO need to apologize!! You are going through so much right now, and it's a never ending frustration.

What a joke.

It means if your date falls before that, you have the right to call and inquire. Clearly, they are working much later than that date though!

It means they don't want to do any more service requests for people in the next 30 days.

Maybe it is a good thing and they will throw some resources at it?

I imagine they are getting hammered with inquiries. It is of their own doing, though.

I just ran the March 7th cases again over at the USCIS site - Five more March 7 approvals just this afternoon at VSC. Everyone check your numbers.

done that... still on

done that... still on

Me too Anita, me too. The two cases below mine were issued RFEs - the case after mine was approved. Lots of movement though - it's very close.

[TigerFlower 61]

The question is, will it be before the weekend?

Thank you Tigerflower! It is my hope that WE, including you and many others here, and myself will get the answer that we've been anxiously waiting for before the weekend. Super power prayers tonight. Regardless of what happens, I will be super happy and celebrate with those who receive their NOA2 tomorrow. :-D

I'm March 1 as well, and this is getting really hard.

I'm glad to hear they are on 2/27. And I think there's a lot of misunderstanding about that date. The thing is, they know as well as we know it - they don't go strictly in order. So that's not the date of the *newest* petition they're doing. That's the latest date they think they're *done* with. Meaning, they know they've done a few early March, mid March, even April. Those people are lucky, they floated to the top for whatever random reason those things happen. If you're on the same date as one of them, and you didn't get your NOA2 yet, it doesn't mean there's something wrong. It means you didn't get lucky.

Now on the other hand, if they think they're done & sewn up with everyone prior to 2/27, and your NOA1 is before that, then yeah you have a problem, like maybe they lost your file or something.

So no, I don't really think it's fair to put in a service request just because you've seen the lucky first person to get pulled for your day, and it wasn't you. I think it's fair that the resource of using a service request goes to the poor sucker who has seen *every* other person on their date already get a response, and they've still heard nothing. *That* person has a problem. The rest of us just have to follow along with the rest of the line.

In any case, we didn't get to file until 3/1 (NOA1 date) because my fiance had an issue with a document. We expected to file last summer - before our baby was born. We thought he might have even been here for the birth, in July 2011. But he has serious issues with his documentation, and we didn't have everything ready until February 2012. So he missed the baby's birth, and the baby's first Christmas, due to our documentation issues. And he missed the baby's first birthday at the end of July this year, arguably because of the slowdown in Vermont. We had a shot at that, if we had an NOA2 in 3 months. It didn't happen. Now we're coming up on 7 months. And our hope of him being here for baby's *second* Christmas is fading.

Believe me, when I see mid March, late March, and April approvals I try to be happy for those people. But I'm starting to want to cry all the time. When I see that filers who were routed to CSC for K1s with Mexico beneficiaries actually have had interviews or have them coming up in the next 3 weeks, it about kills me.

I don't know what I did that karma thinks I need to be challenged quite this badly by this process. I've already had the baby alone, and raised him for 13.5 months alone.

Can we just get an NOA2, so we have a chance at getting him here before I go through another holiday season and another winter?

It was arguably easier when I knew it wouldn't be today (like 6 weeks ago when they were still working on January). Every day for the past 2 weeks when I've seen March approvals and they haven't included my March 1, it's gotten harder and harder.

Good luck to everybody. I hope we all get through this in whatever time the universe has in mind for each of us, and I hope it's a distant memory eclipsed by a lovely reality and future, sooner than we think.
