OMG!! After Long wait! Approved after 40 days!

[Nathan&Elena 1]

It doesn't matter if is someone trolling us or is a genuine approval. Bashing fast approval doesnt help either. I went the through k1 process including watching thousand of people being approved faster than me. It kills you for sure, but we should be supportive with everyone in here...from the people who are till waiting to those who had been approved in 2 days. And if peope here cant say something gentle with one of our members, cause their frustration dont let them. Its better not to say anything at all

Right,about being supportive: why didn't you start with supporting of my frustrated, full of pain and anger heart?:)I would accept something gentle, for sure.

this post is someone's joke, obviously. but it shows, how intence emotions are here. and how poor informational side is. I mean approvals posts, not the VJ site, of course.

is here any posts about "how can we solve USCIS problem of timing"?

threads vs. posts. i actually believe it should all be monthly threads, with filers posting their progress within their month's thread.

for example...

a thread can be made for september filers, all september filers could post that they filed together and chat amongst each other.

there could be a thread for september approvals, as in everybody approved during september regardless of filing month, to celebrate and share their happiness with each other.

could even be a support thread for september rfes.

get where i am going with this?

I get where you are going with it and if these approval threads were keeping people from getting the immigration help or advice that they were seeking then I might even agree with you.

What I don't agree with is putting additional limitations on what and where people should post. This site has a comprehensive terms of service and moderators that try to keep content where it belongs. Personally I would rather have the choice to not read a thread than not have the choice on where I can post.

if you feel disrespected by a post here you have some problems.

People seem to have the idea, however silly, that someone else getting approved quickly in some way slows them down. That there is some imaginary line we are all standing in, and these people who get quick approvals are somehow butting in ahead of others. Which is utter nonsense. There is no way to compare one persons case against another, every last one has it's own idiosyncrasies, and every last one gets dealt with in a singular way, sometimes it takes no time at all, and other cases take quite a lot of time indeed.

I remember being a K1 filer very well. We were last in our group, and that has followed me up til ROC. Always last in any queue. And after finally getting our NOA2 on the K1, we were yanked out of line and placed in 'random' AP at NVC, which was not before common practice. Held up there a further almost 2 months, and missed Christmas together, thank you very much. But I didn't feel that any of that gave me the right to moan about other people getting in some perceived line 'ahead' of me. I congratulated every last one of them, and meant it. It's what adult grown up people do.

I think what disturbs me most of all, is this desire to pour scorn and disapproval on the lucky few who whiz through the process with the rally cry of ' it's not fair!!!" "They filed after we did!' " They are lucky and got the faster service center!"

Life isn't fair.

What also isn't fair is to try and subdue the joy of people who have successfully run the gauntlet, even if it appears that they started after you did. Why do we need to begrudge those people their happiness? Why do some think it is acceptable to ban posts like that, or warn the poster that they can be happy, just not too happy, and that they had better watch their words so as not of upset or annoy or provoke the ones who are still waiting?

Not really, but it sounds unfair to read the topic title right?

It is not necessary to make a new topic everytime you get approved.

There's people waiting 6,7,8 months in here or more. Have some respect.

Just saying....

I'm sure I speak for many

We are at the 260 day mark..and quite offended with USCIS...Time to do something..

Oh! I'm sorry for such a long waiting! after waiting more than average period we were applying to counselor, i mean local senator. it seemed to work, i'm not sure though, it might be just a coincidence that we got approved after visiting our senator

If you start a threat about how bad you feel I WILL BE the 1st one to say CHEER up and pray for your process as I did thousand times with others in your same situation and worst. After reading this, makes me see how angry you are and I cant blame you, but you shouldnt use this threat to show how angry you are, ok maybe is a joke but what if is dont? Start your on threat so we can support you, cheer you up, listen at you, or at least, try to make you feel we are here for you. But bashing on someone else post even if is it fake is not gonna help you. And the USCIS would be an awesome topic why wont you start it? If people out here turn their anger and frustrations to do something good and help other, this world would be totally different.

There's are so many things worst than waiting for a noa2 . My mom is fighting against cancer and she had being so close to death that she can barely touch it. I can not see myself bashing or complaining or mad at people cause their moms are happy and healthy and mine is sick, breast less and bald. Choose your battles wisely, is not worth it to fight about this. You all gonna get your approvals sooner or later and in the mid time try to be grateful with God for everything we have and being happy for others. As simpe as that

I don't need anyones' cheers. and of course i don't need anyone of you being here for me. because it looks like soap opera with bad actors and plot, all of these excitement around every step we all make here. it's a plain paperwork. and my point is- be informational, not emotional.

What can be done, while you are just waiting? it's not you, who won't understand- you were waiting for your darling long enough too. so you should agree, one informational post vs. billion "whohooo" is not enough.

i cheered a person who made a joke, because my feeling was the same, it's not you or anyone else who can tell me I'm angry or something. we have different sence of humor, luckily.

The fact Im not "miserable" as you right now doesnt mean Im hipocrit cause "im not in your shoes" , if I cheer or pray for someone in pain or in a bad situation is because i a human with feeling who had their bad moment of her own. Well basically WE ALL are bad actors cause that's what we do here, SUPPORT people.we are not immigrant lawyers, we are people who try to help others we are own experience, we help with immigrant info but if we cant help at least we cheer somebody with kind words. If you think like that you better try to find another website, with no BAD actors, hipocrits etc. and if you want somebody's sympathy, you are doing wrong

Just remember some parts of the process can be slow and some fast. Be supportive of each other because no matter what, its all on God's time. Everything happens when it happens for a reason. I wish you all luck with your loved ones.

I think, we are done, because this fight over our own points of view leads us nowhere.
