Waiting for a NOA2 from VSC for your I-129F?

[Zee Bee 61]

First, I have send out a HUGE thank you to everyone who contributed to the story. US Wendy, fantastic work!I got off the train and ran to the nearest newsstand to snag the paper. Now that we have this small window of opportunity we need to grab it. We have all waited to be heard. This is our chance.

Everyone needs to go out, buy it and send send send to anyone and everyone who you think will listen. I am going to be sending copies to anyone and everyone. I love how the only quote about wait times is that the government is "commited to family-based visas"...what kind of BS response is that???

Anyways, get to sending out as many copies of the article as you can.

I was really saddened to see how many readers left such negative, hurtful comments about the article.

I'm so glad you all liked the article!!!!! And thank you all for the kind words, I was really nervous about all of this.

I CAN NOT take all the credit myself...there are many HERE who contributed to the article, directly and indirectly.

Mostly, I'd like to thank the Reporter whose writing was right 'on point'...she DID NOT let us down.

Keep up the fight!!!!!! All it takes is reaching out and making your voice heard!!!!! Don't ever think-->"oh, I'm just one

person, no one is going to listen to me, I can't make them change." The key is persistence and dedication to doing the RIGHT thing. I'm no more special than any of you here.

Praying also helps; I did a lot of that!!!

I'll contribute in any way I can-->although I'll be relegated to an internet cafe computer until I return to the U.S., if I return.

THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL THE UNWAVERING SUPPORT!!!!!

I gotta go to work now and finish some things.

I fully expected the backlash......that's what haters do, hate. So let them do their job.

I've heard it all before; I'm not moved.

Whatever bad things that might 'happen' to us as a result of these relationships we have with foreigners could very well happen right here in the good 'ole USA, by an American Citizen. It's a chance we all take, no matter who we marry.

I agree 100%.

If we were all going to be afraid of what people *might* say or do then how would things ever change?

It is the people who step and do somehting, anything to demand change.

It's already bad enough I'm sure most of us had to go through some measure of explaining to the rest of our families why we had to be with someone not of this country.

I remember when I made my first trip to London in the first place, and my father of all people threw the biggest fit about how if I got put in British jail he wasn't going to bail me out or some mess.

Yeah, there are people out to scam the country and others, that will never change, but the American marriage system is so broken and screwed up in general now anyway that two Americans can get married, the woman can high-tail it off immediately, and get all the guy's assets in alimony!

What bullshit. All of it.
