Thats great news Rebecca! We also are overdue for our renewed fingerprints, I guess we'll get a letter soon.

TY, Patrick.

It kind of appears that you don't get the letter for reprinting unless the namecheck has come back. At least that's the anecdotal experience around VJ.

7 months and 25 days since we sent off our AOS and we are still pending FBI Name Check. No touches, no more updates to speak of. Sigh.

[well at least it was better than just saying "bump"]

hubby got a call from USCIS today (while he was on a site visit of course and in a rush).. They were responding to a 1/7/07 request I put in to the Immigration Assistance office re: status.
Mr. H - your still pending.

:rolleyes:

Did he tell them he sort of had that one figured out?

I agree...we have to keep this thread going....Alot of us still waiting :crying::crying::crying:

Nothing still on our case. My mind is boggled with just waiting, we have done everything except a WOM ; which I believe is not feasible with an AOS anymore (if I'm correct).

Almost to page 100!!!

Well I keep googling to see if there is any more information about the FBI Name Check in the news and if all this new policy regarding "immigration reform" being discussed is going to have any impact on those currently lurking in the "pending" black hole. So far nothing, and despite my best efforts of emailing any news outlet that claims to listen, they are not interested in covering anything about it unless, it seems, it is from those sueing for citizenship. For those of us still trying to get our green cards so that we can be on our own path to citizenship (if we want it), it's almost as though they don't want to know.

I did find an interesting article on CNN this morning called: Dobbs: Big media hides truth about immigration which is an opinion piece about how the media seem to be shaping the illegal immigration agenda by ommiting such phrases as "illegal immigration" and substituting it with "undocumented workers" - a fact the author notes is an inaccuracy seeing as they have documents, multiples of them, pretty much fake or stolen. It goes on to discuss the impact this is having, and why there needs to be a push for the truth, and accurate statistics and a look at the bigger picture that seems to be blatently ignored by both the media and the politicians themselves. It's a fascinating read...

Anyway, I posted it on the news forum section and am still waiting for it to appear, but it did make me wonder...

If we are wanting to make sure that this thread doesn't disappear into a black hole of its own, why don't we start a campaign to contact the media and ask them to cover the story of the FBI Name Check and the impact of its delays on the 3% that Gonzales says are stuck in its limbo [one source]. This statistic was part of an article posted throughout the press about the proposed fee hikes and why Emilio González, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services believes the fee hike should be supported. Since they were all happy to report that only 3% are stuck, perhaps they need to hear from some of those 3% so that they can put faces to these statistics. And through it all, we can post our efforts adn their respective feedback on this forum to encourage everyone, and at least *feel* like we are doing something other than just waiting for that one email which says our namecheck has been completed.

I have been trying to get the media to listen since December by sending them my own letters about what it does to me, but I am only one voice and it's pretty evident I am not making any impact by myself.

It's just a thought, and if we start humanizing the legal immigration and its strengths and weaknesses, perhaps we can impact the process enough to force some changes, while pushing for the enforcement of the immigration laws that are already on the books. We might (haha, *might) even get the press to stop sugar-coating illegal immigration and actually reverse the process of calling illegal immigrants anything but "illegal".

Anyhoo, that's my 2 cents for the day.

And it sure felt better than just saying "bump"
