What do YOU deserve!  

77 members have voted

  1. 1. You have been used and abused by USCIS. You've paid lots of fees and paid you dues. If USCIS were passing out 'thank you gifts' - what would you want for your time, trouble, and money?

    • A t-shirt that declares you 'Legal Alien Allowed to Work'
      17
    • 'Wel-cum to America' condoms.
      5
    • Free paper shredder for AOS approval party.
      9
    • A camera that date and time stamps all photos and adds the phrase 'see how happy we STILL are' across the bottom.
      12
    • A bumper sticker that says 'Thanks for the DAYUM visa'
      11
    • A USCIS special edition Monopoly game with the 4 service centers as railroads and Condolezza Rice as the Top Hat Guy.
      18
    • A partridge in a pear tree.

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

I like the monopoly idea :lol:

Honestly I bet that would be something funny to make and sell it on places like VJ. There could be go to Admin Review instead of go to jail, or go to RFE land, etc.

Married since 9-18-04(All K1 visa & GC details in timeline.)

Well I voted for the Monopoly set, but also like Moondancer's idea "I survived USCIS" T-Shirt.

What I'd really like is a grovelling letter of apology for putting us unecessarily in RFE hell for 2 months. I would frame that and put it pride of place on top of the organ.
