This is the email message I just read:

Hi Dean - the latest from the California Service Center.

Romaine,

The petition is pending review with an officer. A congressional case will be opened to ensure the case is reviewed/adjudicated. A congressional specialist will provide a response after review.

California Service Center

Congressional Liaison Unit

Thanks so much to Romaine at Sen. Ken Salazars office!! She cared when noone else seemed to!!

You were touched by a Senate aid? Naughty!

godspeed to you

Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. ####### coated bastards with ####### filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive bobble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine.

I got about the same message almost a month ago. My congressman's office sent a letter saying CSC was "reviewing the merits of the case" on Sept 29. Still nothing!!!!

Even they get a Congressional Inquiry they still could drag their feet. I mean, how long can it take to review? There's only so many pages of evidence!!

I hope your's doesn't go to the desk mine is on, for your sake. Nobody should have to wait this long when they have the manpower to process it, they just don't care obviously.

230 friggin days. My luck I'll get put on AR at the Embassy too. :crying:

Gonna try again.
