I’m currently in the US Air Force based in Germany. I’m due to return to the U.S. in Oct 07. My fiancé and I currently live together at my residence in Germany.

I originally applied for an I-129F in Mar 07. The California service center denied my application saying that because my current location was overseas, I must submit my application to the nearest American Embassy. I then contacted the US Embassy in Frankfurt Germany and was informed they do not process I-129F Visa’s.

After numerous phone calls and emails to the US Embassy, US State Dept. and USCIS, (which weren’t very helpful) I was advised to re-file my application and use a stateside address on the petition. I did so in Jun 07. A few weeks later, I finally received notice that my application was received and being processed.

Clearly the I-129F application refers to U.S. Service members living overseas (I-129F part C question 1). For this reason, I feel that my first application should not have been denied. Had my first application been approved (submitted Mar 07), the process would have most likely been completed before I was due to return to the U.S. in Oct 07

Yup! They definitely made a big error! My fiancé was stationed here in Germany (he left 3 days ago) and we applied for a K1 visa in May at USCIS in Vermont. That is the way it should have been. I don’t understand them, it’s not like you are the first person applying from overseas, especially from Germany.

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.

oh, I wouldn't give up so soon... I'm sure it would take longer than this if they were going to approve it :)

in fact you COULD see it as a good thing, not to have heard... you know what they say; knock-backs come immediately, but approvals take a while ;)
