I wouldn't make the assumption that the changes that were made were due to any of our efforts. If they *did* help, then why do you want recognition for it? That's pretty selfish. It's not their "fault" that they are being processed how we all should have been. I'm nothing but happy for them and glad that don't have to go through what we did, or even think about it.

I fail to see what's so selfish about it? They spent a lot of time putting together a package that has had an impact, whether or not you want to recognise that. I think it's perfectly okay to be happy AND mad (not at the people, but the process itself) for the couples that are getting their approvals in 20 days.

Ok sure, here are a couple obvious things...

1) When you quote someone, you're replying back to them personally.

2) You insinuated she was selfish. That’s personal.

3) From my observation, you seem to target certain people to respond to and express your disagreement more than others. That seems personal.

And here I was talking about the process. There has been 5 pages of people complaining that people are getting approved before us and it's so unfair because the september filers did all the work.

At some point it gets old and unproductive. And yes, saying that you want to go scream at the filers getting approved that it's thanks to "us" that they are getting approved is selfish. Yes, feel free to take that personally. You are right on that.

214 since receival.

hoping for a good week too...

Boy.. It's even taking long for a Canadian.. Then I suppose nationality doesn't play a bigger role as I had thought.

7 months, 1 week and 3 days here. What is that.. 220 days so far?

Guys, I'm positive that all of the money, time, sanity, and soul we've invested into this will pay off.. It has to.

I was recently accepted into the University of Florida for the Fall term, so I need to be there by July 23rd to attend the orientation day. That's in over three months from now, so I think (read: hope ) I can make it. We'll receive these damned NOA2 this week, the question is.. Does it take too long for the interviews to be scheduled? As always, I've seen varied results.. Some 2 weeks after NOA2.. Some 2 months.. Etc.

You know what? It f#cking blows having people surpass us even though they technically should be in this mess with us. Now, I'm really stoked that USCIS have realized their incompetence in shipping away files to certain service centers, and I'm very pleased that the changes are in place. But that doesn't take away from the bitterness I feel over how I'm 220 days in and I still haven't heard a single thing since the day they received our package 7 freaking months ago. I'm not going to apologize over the fact that I hate how our (my fiancé and I) life plans keep being pushed back while people that applied three months ago are happily married with their SO right now.

That we are *eventually* going to get approved doesn't mean to me, and certainly doesn't inspire any optimism, the fact is that our life together has been on hold for the past 7 months due to external factors that none of us can control. I think it's perfectly fine to be bitter over that.

Yep. I was naïve once and thought, "Hey, I'm Canadian. This should be a breeze!"

I mean, even when they get to doing a background check on me and/or my fiancé, it ~should be quick. Neither of us have travelled anywhere except between the US and Canada. Our backgrounds are so beige and boring. I thought it would have paid off to be uninteresting but I guess not! Haha. :oops:

:thumbs: Totally. I mean, I generally hate when people piss and moan about things in life being "unfair".

Except for in this instance, because it truly just isn't right.

God, I hate to say this but.. I agree with you. So much, but I couldn't have worded it better. I only find solace in the fact that there are people like you who feel exactly as I do. In some curious and anguishing way, it's kind of comforting. Like.. Somesort of mutual suffering comfort. Weird, huh?

I definitely know what you mean haha! It sucks because I'm usually a very happy, non-bitter person, but like wbeem has said in the past, this process really does change you (even if only temporary)
