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

[TBoneTX 45,308]

Nice! You think it had to do with your phone call?

It had to. (I belatedly updated the last line of my sig.) Ergothuswithforthly, perhaps they'll arightly determine that I am not a threat to the national security of the U.S. or most other countries, and they will do what they're supposed to do. A couple of folks at the VSC are in worse shape than me, by a few days!

Yeah, hopefully the phone call prompted somebody to realize your file had been sitting idle, and actually start moving on it.

[TBoneTX 45,308]

Well, it had been idle only since Dec. 12 (my last call was Dec. 11), but I just wanted to learn where it was and hopefully get it across that they need to shake it, if not jet. Thanks for your continuing interest, dude.

Off-signing soonly; will check in late tonight (11pm-ish Central).

WHAT, Aly?! Jeremy has touched you only TWICE? If this is true, he is nuts, and he deserves a massive out-chewing ("oot-chewing" if in Canadia).

My timeline first having been assiduously updated, I am now free to report that the Disservice Center forgot what it was supposed to be doing (delaying, obfuscating), because it issued an NOA2 notice to me today, by e-mail and website (further proof that those birds have lost whatever was left of their non-minds). The effective date was yesterday, 12-18-2007.

Ergothuswithforthly, the steps are being followed in proper order: [1] update VJ timeline; notify fellow VJ celebrants/sufferers; [iii] fax printout of approval to Mama T-Bone; [d] call the future Mrs. T-B.; [V] make note to self, in case political office ever seeks me, to overhaul the holy hell out of the USCIS system and everyone in it; [6] perform further and thorough Anaesthesia by Beer, even though I don't drink.

For those still suffering (SSAH, Lora, Maria&John, and I know I'm mortifyingly forgetting someone), the secret seems to be Get PAST or AROUND those front-line contracted screeners and talk to an ImmigOff; [2] rather than get emotional and simply beg for (or demand) action, ask WHERE IN THE DIVISION your file is; [C] point out dispassionately that applications submitted in July & August are being approved; and [Four] request that the ImmigOff send an e-mail to the workstation where your file is. When faced with the facts, and when the facts are presented in terms that the ImmigOffs can relate to, they can send more-meaningful messages to the people on the floor who are actually (supposed to be) handling your file.

Now, can someone please:

[A] Tell me which forums here to begin scoping next; and

[ii] Tell me exactly what happens next, approximately when, and what I/the fiancee need to do?

Like Bartles & Jaymes, we thank you for your support. We do not know what we would have done without you during this wrench-gutting ####### 188 days. Most sincerely stated, si man. We will not disappear on you, no man. We appreciate you, and you are living reverification that "If we do not all hang together, we shall certainly all hang separately." Si, man.

T-B. (si, man)

By Jeremy, or by the Bastards of the Visas? Mazel tov (that's Hebrew for "jolly good")! You will make an absolutely lovely bride.

[iii] fax printout of approval to Mama T-Bone

LOL! Yeah, my mom is always saying "Son, you never fax me anymore. What, you don't have time to fax your mother who carried you for nine months of her life? Oy vey!"

Okay, you get one more CONGRATULATIONS out of me. I have to save some for a rainy day you know.

[Jeraly 4]

Thankee, sir. You are a prominent part of why I am still comparatively sane today. Aly certainly exudes brevity, si man, but her happiness was more paramount than minimum numbers of words. And, how cool that she & Jeremy are together at this moment!

LOL! Yeah, my mom is always saying "Son, you never fax me anymore. What, you don't have time to fax your mother who carried you for nine months of her life? Oy vey!"

Actually, dude, your accuracy is scary. Oy vey and si, man.

- sorry TBone!! In my self-indulgent excitement I forgot to wish you my most heartfelt gratzies

Thank you, Sweetheart. Remember: Jeremy had better be touching you more than twice!
