   My fiancée called about 10 mins ago and was told we have to wait 3-5 days for a call back from a Tier Two, as they’ve stopped taking call transfers about an hour before!

 

The call handler had no empathy and just wanted us off the call. It took her a while to bring up our case too! 

Are they still using Windows 3.1 and using carrier pidgeons to send mail?!

 

What really gets to me is that we paid $525 to submit our application, which is $225 more than last year, and they’re taking almost double the time that they did last year!

 

We all want to move on our lives and start a family and the USCIS is preventing us all from doing so! 

 

It’s total bs!!

 

Does anyone ask where the extra $225 is going? Why, as we paid more than last year’s applicants, is it taking almost double the time??

 

Sorry.... rant over 😳

I am not as concerned  about the fee as I am as how fast they cashed my check.  The same day they received my application...gone from my bank account electronically.  They should wait to process our payments until they process our petitions and you know they would move way the F faster.  And now I hear they told a caller it may take up to a year?  They make up the rules as they go!?  This is not a tax refund, this is peoples lives.  What's the old adage, justice delayed is justice denied?   When my Fiancé and I applied, the wait was maybe 3-4 months, I am at 142 days today with no end in site, and I know I am in the behind numerous April and May filers and god knows how many countless petitions after me.  My fiancé got a European Schengen visa to meet me in 15, FIFTEEN DAYS.  When is it OK to be mad, when is it OK to say hey buddies,  you are doing a piss poor job and its not acceptable!

Yep, was 3.5 to 5 months at tops to get word.  All went to California and was 3.5.  Now it's past 5 months.  They should've moved resources to keep the same pace of 3.5 months.

I completely agree with you!

 

As we would say here in England: “it seems like they don’t know their ####### from their elbow” (not to offend anyone with my comments). 

 

I did a little calculation about the extra money:-

 

$225 x 1000 (approx) applications per day received = $225,000 per day!

 

$225,000 x 5 days open = $1,125,000 per week!!!

 

$1,125,000 x 52 weeks = $58,500,000 per year!!!

 

So: if they pay one person $22,500 per year - out of one (1) day’s worth of applications, they could hire ten (10) extra people!!

 

There really is no ‘financial’ reason that we should be waiting this bloody long!

 

We all just want to marry our fiancées and have a happy life and make plans!!
