We just now got an email from Cris saying we got an RFE AGAIN !!!

Seems insane to me that they could have had it for this long without looking through it and listing what they need :blink:

OH well have to just pick ourselves up and move on and try to look at this as a step forward.

CONGRATS AGAIN AND HOPE MORE APPROVALS COME THROUGH

Andrew...call CSC again (don't get fowarded to the national call center...speak only to and officer) and explain again your situation..how long you've been waiting and hopfully you can get the info you need to expedite your RFE. Just don't forget that you remain top on the list until your case has been adjudicated !!! No worries !!! :thumbs:

Scott

Thanks for the advice Scott......and HUGE CONGRATS for your GREAT NEWS :dance::dance::dance: .

I really am happy for you because we ALL deserve to beat this crappy system of waiting for so long for this approval to start the real process of getting our visas.

We are trying to console one and another and waiting for the letter and we will keep you informed. We just hope that, as you say, it wont slow us down too long. We would call CSC but they will not talk to me as the recipient and my fiance the petitioner really does not want to speak to them at this time which is understandable really.

Best wishes Scott and have a few drinks for me in celebration you both deserve it :thumbs::thumbs:

Kits 24 Faith I notice that on your timeline it says Touched August 22: RFE received and case resumed - How do you know this ? did you receive an email stating this ??

I just dont understand how if it was resumed almost a month ago you have not received your approval. Please let me know what they say if you do call them about how they deal with the RFE,many thanks.

BTW when ever I do the 'REF trick' we normally just ask how the case is going once we get through to someone and make sure it is a woman as there is a guy there also and he is no help at all but the woman normally tells us whats going on. We haven't bothered to say anything about a lawyer just that we had an RFE. - Hope this helps :thumbs:

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.

It sounds like you haven't signed up under USCIS' email notification and on site service. It's free and all you have to do is go to www.uscis.gov and on the left ther's a link to check your status online. Then just follow the instructions on how to make an account and make sure you select Customer instead of Representative if making your account. Me either, it's hard not to complain since we all are just human beings. But really it is giving me and my SO such a hard time because we thought right after the case has resume from the RFE, we will have our NOA2 in less than a month. I have seen others here that had a RFE got their NOA2 in days or after a week or two. I guess we just have to stay positive and trust God that some things are not in our control. God bless on your speedy journey and I hope we can get out of this long wait already.

CONGRATS TO SCOTT !!!

:angry: However on our part we are a bit low really, after 156 Days and one RFE at the very start, We just now got an email from Cris saying we got an RFE AGAIN !!!

Seems insane to me that they could have had it for this long without looking through it and listing what they need :blink:

OH well have to just pick ourselves up and move on and try to look at this as a step forward.

CONGRATS AGAIN AND HOPE MORE APPROVALS COME THROUGH

Really very sorry to hear about the RFE. I was really hoping you would be getting your approval by now. It sucks that you cannot call USCIS on the phone and find out what is needed regarding your RFE. You would think they would be more understanding and want to get you moving foward as quick as possible.

I know you can do nothing at this point but believe me I do feel your pain. Stay strong. :thumbs::thumbs:

Many many thanks to StillThePretties..., kits_24_faith, and afterforever for those very very kind words and thoughts.

Believe me those words are very important to us and do help us keep going.

You people are the best and I just wish USCIS and CSC could see what great people they are holding up.

(L):D If they could only see that I know they would speed up.

At the end of all this I know we all will have our hard earned reward because we ALL deserve it sooooo much.

I am praying for all of us keep the good news coming as it makes us all smile :yes::dance::dance:

Thanks Scott.. but I have another stupid question to ask.. um will the officer ask me who is my lawyer if I made that up? Like if I said my lawyer said dah dah dah dah.. will the officer ask about my lawyer? Coz I do not have any.. thanks..I'll call them if by Friday I still don't hear anything or atleast a touch. Thank you.

No one will ask for you to prove it...the only reason for saying that is to play like an innocent little lamb gone astray from the heard and you can't find your way back :crying::crying::crying: It seens as though when you play dumb and are extremely nice they go out of their way to help and inform you...(just my opinion).

Best of luck!! :thumbs:

I second that. I called several times to "check on the status". Each time I was super nice and the officer was very helpful-even if they were just basically telling me to be patient. I don't think they understand how hard that is!!! <_<

Thanks Scott.. so with my situation (look at my timeline) can you kinda help me what should I say to the officer when I call this Friday if still no NOA2? Like what do you think is appropriate to say about what my lawyer said about my case? Since my case has resumed already from a RFE response back in August 22. Thanks for all the help.
