Photos are secondary evidence, so don't worry. If the rest of your evidence is substantial, it shouldn't be a problem.

Brian - RFE would be before NOA2. Since the NOA2 is essentially the approval, if there was a need for more evidence, it would come before that.

I would assume an RFE could come at any time up to then. Once they start processing your application, if there's a need for more evidence, they will then send the RFE.

Hello Byron,

I hope this note finds you less frustrated and more patient. Please realize that this system is set up so that YOU can do all the filing of papers yourself. You do not need a lawyer...they have no "special hotlines or connections." The paperwork she/he sends for you gets put in the system the same as if you sent it. If you choose to hire a lawyer...then, you should be willing to do things the way they are done in her/his office. You are paying them to do what you chose not to do. Every time you contact her/him, the "Money Meter" starts and you pay more $$$$$$$$$$$$$ :yes:

IF you want things done a specific way...the best way to accomplish this goal is to do them yourself. :thumbs:

Wow...you met in February? And, you have "about 150" phone calling cards. You must spend a lot of time on the phone with Leidy. I am married to my wife and my $10 phone calling card lasts me a week or more. We talk about 10 minutes each day and "see" each other on MSN Messenger almost every night for 30 - 45 minutes. I call my wife daily to tell her that I love her, miss her...ask about her day/family/work, etc. (IF something is REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT, she will call me!!! NOTE: She's called me twice.) And, we discuss any "important stuff" if necessary by e-mails. She is busy and I am busy...there isn't much that I have to say that cannot be said in 10 minutes. Oh...and I send her a couple of "Te (L) Quiero Mucho" text messages to her phone every day.

With regard to your "Contact Your Congressman/Senator" comment: I can see it now..."OK folks we are going to convene a Congressional Subcommittee to investigate why it takes 6 months to process an individual's Immigration paperwork." With all those people running around doing their

"investigation"...is service going to improve??? I doubt it. I agree with others on this site...IF your paperwork is taking longer "on average" than others shown in the timelines, MAYBE a call or letter to your congressman might help. Maybe just a call to the Service Center will suffice?

We are ALL in this process together...and, we would ALL like to have our wives/SOs at our side quickly. But, there are folks who got into the system before you and I...and there will be others after us as well. As my wife Karina says, "Paciencia Craig, Paciencia!!"

Good luck with your process. :)

Sincerely,
