My sister is an immigration attorney for last 15 years in Arlington va, so she did all my paperwork  (so blessed) but I did pay the uscis fee though. Believe it or not, it all comes down to the background checks. It really doesn't matter if u hire an attorney or not, if u have a clean record, u r all set.  Furthermore, she will be doing my fiancés I 485, i765 and i131 as well. For those who haven't received their noa2's yet, my prayers are with y'all.  I m praying 4 u guys non stop. Lov u all.

 

 

I am prior military and work for the federal government. Can't be just the background checks. I really think they need to stick to the regulations and do cases in the order they are received lawyer or not. This seems to be a big money game and about who you know and it's  unacceptable. Sorry I am just a bit frustrated that this seems to be the norm and it's acceptable.

Yes i have no worries about the  interview either. Nothing to hide so should be  fine.  But with cancer history in family   x ray  always bothers me.  Even if i feel fine it will always worry me  that something will show  up there.   I dont smoke so i know my  lungs should be  ok.. But  still :(     I just want it over and done with so i can be  possitive about it  all.

My kids want to go so bad .. they packed  all of there toys  allready  haha

Hello. Yes I believe this may play a major part in how the cases are being handled. I will attend his interview with him for that reason. I hate that a few have messed it up for many. I have got the senator involved and I pray he can make a difference. I am sure shedding this type of light on my case would show that it isn't a case of fraud. You should do the same. And he is in Montego Bay. I was going there often when the prices were lower. It has been 5 months since I've seen him so I need this process to start moving faster. I wish you all the best as well and I hope you bring this to your senators attention because they need to know what's happening.

I am a March 16th filer and I have yet to hear anything as well. If you call they give you a generic answer that they are only working cases from January. The apps and scans show a different story. Sad part is you don't know what to believe. I have resorted to contacting my senator because they need to be made aware that the cases are not being handled in the order they are received and they need to accurately update their website.  The agent even implied that the ppl that get approved and announce it on this site are lying to be patient and wait another 2 to 3 months. Write to your senator and see if something can be done. I wrote to two. I hope they can do something.

I'm sorry you're still awaiting while others are getting approved around you. Not really sure what your State Senator can do at early point in your process only because others have resorted to those measures and have gotten no results.

 

Trust me when I tell you I feel your pain and I'm a May filer whose fiancé is also in Jamaica (Lucea, PO Hanover); so I have a longer ways to go. The USCIS process is unfortunately crazy for many of the reasons none of us will ever know. And while they say they box up the petitions in date order, we really don't know what adjudicator has that box with our petition in it and if they aren't as fast as others that plays a factor too. They work in a productivity environment which at times has no structure because you have those that are about their numbers and others that are sticklers. And no it doesn't just come down to the background checks, although that is the primary focus that the USCIS handles at this stage. And no, I don't work for them nor have I went through this process before. But based off of what I do for living, I can tell you that at times, if a background check comes back with a hit based off of the name or name variation, that can slow down the process. Not saying that is happening with your case or anything like that. And yes, Jamaica IS A HIGH-RISK FRAUD COUNTRY. Based off of what I do (I work in the Anti-Money Laundering/Terroristic Financing industry), you will be surprised at the things that I see and how much scrutiny I have to have when resolving case dealing with a high-risk geography such as JA, and I'm madly in love and engaged with my Jamaican fiancé!

 

But just remember, the VJ timelines are not concise, factual numbers. They are estimates based on others updating their timelines. I've watched my dates fluctuate up and down the last 2 weeks; one minute I'm suppose to get an approval in mid August and now early September.

 

I wish you the best of luck on the rest of your journey and pray that you get a NOA2 very soon! :D

I totally understand the paranoia also. My fiance had TB several years back when he was in school...he went through many months of treatment and made a full recovery. But I'm worried it will come up as scarring or something on his chest x-ray and prompt further testing. Fingers crossed it will go through smoothly for all of us!! 

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered "Man.... Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived."
