Use to get really worked up on the wait time, but I have learned to go with the flow and appreciate the time given to prepare for marriage. I actually see it as a blessing and not a hindrance. Waiting

You're not alone. We gotta all try to hang in there. This process is sucking the life out of me. I don't even feel like myself most days.

An USCIS guy told me that the reason why some cases are quickly approved and others are delayed is because those delayed ones are being through a longer background check process. Is it true?

Many people think that's just an excuse they use to get you off their back, but I happen to think it's true. If you have a common name, or one similar to any bad guys, it could delay your background check. However, people were approved before me with dates later than me and I have a unique name and no criminal history, so there are probably a few different reasons it's out of order.

Different adjudicators also grab stacks of petitions at different times. It's impossible to process people exactly in order.

Let the rant begin.

Really starting to get annoyed with the whole thing. I have still not got my NOA2 and I dont see any reason as to why I wouldn't have it.

Any ideas?
