Look guys, there are not a lot of F2A's left from 2012, they would have retrogressed further if they had been. I honestly believe, if you look at October stats from previous years, they always jump ah

I really hope this prediction is true but I really think we shouldn't be too excited until we actually see

the Visa Bulletin for September. I sear this visa bulletin ####### is like buying a ticket to the lottery and

waiting for your ticket to be called. They play with our emotions so much it's depressing,

I mean they just went backward in June now they are going forward again in September

and so on this system is so flawed and seriously depressing sigh.As a matter of fact, I

think we who have to do Consular Processing often get left in the dark as I think when the

Visa Bulletin was current last year they used up a lot of the available Visas on the people who

filed for Adjustment of Status, so alot of Visa weren't left after. If I depend on this Visa Bulletin I

would probably not be reunited with my hubby until Early 2016 smdh.

This is great news. Even though my PD is 08/23/2013, I'm very happy for any forward movement. Atleast and at last some of us will come out of the cold. :dancing:

Aww hun I am so sorry to hear that you got caught up in this retro with a case

complete. I would be so mad if I was in your position. The funny thing about

it is that people who filed their petition months after you did, we able to

get through the hold process before the retro. Just to show you how unfair

this whole system is. I am really hoping for rapid movement starting in

Oct too but I just have a feeling they will move forward slowly.

Good luck, pray for me and I will pray for you. All the best:-)
