and it also makes no sense at all... ANY approval is one off their list, so there's no impetus there to do things in order, but the longer the earlier ones wait, the more risk VSC're taking of going past their advertised timeframes... one must conclude that the insane are running the asylum :wacko:

The Very Secret Diary of Legolas Son of Weenus - by Cassandra Claire

Day One: Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into volcano. Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.

Day Six: Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very afraid I am developing a tangle.

Orcs so silly.

Still the prettiest.

Day 35: Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary. Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir definitely not prettier than me. Cannot understand it. Am feeling a pout coming on.

Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each other, rather cute really.

Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height, so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet most off-putting. Foresee dark times ahead, very dark times.

Hello from Russ2622

I have two ideas about why a few people who filed in September have already received their approvals. Both of these ideas are just guess work on my part.

Idea #1 there is a fairy godmother that works at the processing centers who at random pulls a petition and approves it. It is entirely at random and for no specific reason. The only problem is she only works one hour every six months.

Idea # 2 if just a few petitions are approved with a short wait time it skews the average wait time downward and keeps the processing centers within their processing timeframe goals. That is why the fairy godmother only works once every six months.

I write this tongue in cheek but it makes as much sense as anything else that comes out of USCIS.

As a May filer I guess I was lucky to receive my approval in 144 days. I have not forgotten my fellow filers. I finally received a letter from my congressman basically saying he would take my concerns under advisement. (Not very helpful) I have not heard back from my senators but I will contact them again this week.

Good luck to everyone

Russ

First, Happy birthday Jason!

Pat's bday is on the 25th....and I assume I'm not going to be there. Hell yeah I'm fuckin pissed off at VSC, I can't believe they send me a RFE a few days close to the 6 months mark. That is so ridiculous. I'm going crazy here....How come people are getting approved in a month or so and they waited 6 fuckin months to check on my petition!!! I have nothing against the people who had been approved, good for them, but I'm pissed off at VSC about the lame work they are doing over there.

Not only they ruin my dreams of being with Pat for his 32nd birthday but they are also putting me under so much stress here.....

I feel so frustrated right now, I can't wait for tomorrow to find out what that stupid letter says!

The worst thing is that today is my stepsister's bday and I gotta go to her house and fake a happy face and pretend that everything is fine just when in the inside I feel like ####### about all this....of course she's gonna ask once again when am I leaving and how is the process going and I'm just so sick and tired or having the same answer....

I don't feel like going out and pretend I'm happy when I'm not.

Sorry guys but I just had to let this out.....This doesn't mean I stopped being positive and hopefull! No way! But this is something that I had inside me that I had to let go......

Sorry! Hopefully some of you will understand my frustration...

I fired off a quasi-strongly worded email to the CIS Ombudsman, and I highly suggest all of you do the same too.

The gist of mine was "How can we expect to be patient when the process is not even working correctly?" and "Why are the rest of us waiting?"

Seriously, send them a dozen or so emails saying the same thing, see if they can't ignore that.

oh Mirla; I know you've heard it all before, THOUSANDS of times, but truly - hang in there; don't fall at the last hurdle :)

you must be so close now... and the crappier it is, the greater the contrast when you're together, and so happy, and all this is a memory you'll hardly even think about, so wonderful will the present and the future be :)

there are LOADS of updated ones, but nothing really recently (at least, not in that format); bszoom, who used to generate the lists, now has his fiancée with him, and therefore better things to do with his time ;)

I am really p*ssed off about this. Sorry, but I am! I know I'll sound like a two year old here, but it is so unfair that they are approving these later filers knowing they have such a huge backlog. :protest::ranting:

Makes you wonder if some people filing petitions have friends or family that work at USCIS as adjudicators.
