I just booked a flight for the end of March to go see my husband. I was supposed to wait til April but the tickets are $1000 in April. I had enough miles to get a free ticket for March. SIGH ... I miss him so much. We are arguing alot and I really think its because of the distance. I feel extremely bad for the waiting . The lawyer told us 6 months when we first filed. its already double that and still we haven't heard anything. Only lies from everyone I call. We still have a waiver to file. I can't take this process anymore. I feel terrible that it is taking so long. Its been a rough couple of days for me cray5ol.gif

OMG I really need an approval . I need something good to happen. I have lost hope.

Hang in there ! We're all waiting impatiently. At least u will go c ur husband I can't even go meet him. :( but hopefully we will get an approval soon hopefully hopefully hopefully! I hope we all get an approval soon !

I wasn't able to log on from work yesterday but I was reading from my cell. This is the response I received from TSC yesterday

I received something similar last week via Senator Toomey's office but saying 30 days instead of 60 days

The status of this service request is:

We have received your service request and researched the status of your case. We have had to perform an additional review and this has caused a delay in processing time. Your case is currently with an adjudicating officer. You should receive a decision or notice of further action within 60 days.

XM1268

Lovemytico,

Have you tried e-mailing SCOPSSCATA@dhs.gov ? It says, if the issue is still not resolved after 21 more days, email the Office of Service Center Operations.

Don't know if anyone else has tried that, but I would give it a shot?!

My heart is breaking for you! :( but at least you know your going to see your hubby. That should ease the pain slightly. Haven't seen my hubby since last April. And today is his birthday. Still waiting out the NVC bs. Ugh! We are going to miss our anniversary too. :( I MISS HIM terribly.

this is the response from the Senator's office this morning after my plea for help AGAIN.

I realize this is stressful but I trust the latest update from my liaison at the Texas Service Center. They are adjudicating both the I-130 and the I-129f per their correspondence to me. I have no reason to believe my liaison would not be telling the truth. In addition, customer service is not always able to see the full updates on pending cases; Congressional liaisons do have access to the full files though. In addition, when cases get held up due to security checks or requests for evidence, the processing times posted are no longer applicable.

Thank you for your Tuesday, February 18, 2014, email on behalf of your constituent, Ms.Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx , regarding Form I-130 Petition for Alien Relative and I-129F Petition for Fiancée.

USCIS records show this case is in transit to the unit where it will be assign to an officer. The background checks have been resolved, therefore a decision or some type of action will be made within the next 30 business days.

Thank you,

Rachel

LoveMyTico,

I understand your feelings and feel some of the pain you are going through. I have been waiting for 7 and half months now and it is killing me little by little.

USCIS have been telling me for two weeks now that my petitions are assigned to an officer, it has been already two weeks and nothing yet.

You have been waiting for so long and the feeling of nopt being able to do anything about it is really a killer!

I wish there was something we could do at this point, but we only have to wait some more!

Almost there and we will all forget about this BS!

Hang in there lady!!!!! and GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF US!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really don't understand why these congressman's staffers are so ready to accept whatever USCIS tells them. Its been really hard to be apart and keep the passion as hot as the day we were married. Maybe USCIS counts on this and wants people to give up, who knows. I don't really think they care about us, otherwise they would streamline the process and hire more people. Just think how much $$$ every day comes into USCIS. They could easily hire more people to adjudicate cases. Its sad how many people tell me that they thought my wife would be able to come right over because we were married. I have to tell them no, we have to sit and wait. I really don't understand why its taken since Jan. 6, when USCIS told my Congressional staffer that I had been assigned to an officer and was undergoing security checks. What possibly could take 2 months?
