Hi everyone....I spent most of my day sitting in my Congressman's office telling him my trail of tears since last May 26th.....I showed him my log of phone calls, emails and certified letters.....the timeline of mistakes with the rfe......mailing of 1/2 a petition and the horrific wait we have endured.....Explained to him the pain we have experienced and how much stress this has caused us.......the unfairness of this process and the uncaring ineptness of the USCIS and NVC.....He listened and promised to make some calls for us...apoligized to me....I felt better when I left.....About 1 hour ago I recieved this email...

Thank you so much for coming to my office today to talk to me about your problems getting your voice heard and petition processed in a timely fair manner. I apoligize again for this terrible experience and hope to increase your confidence by telling you that your petition is now on it's way to Lima, Peru with my sincere hope in a quick visa issuance.

:dance::dance::dance:

I checked dhl and a package left NVC this afternoon for Lima.........I am numb

Thanks so much everyone for all of your prayers and support.....and God Bless you Congressman Wolf............Lora and oscar

Lora, that is wonderful news!! I do pray that Oscar receives a quick interview! You to certainly deserve a break in this nightmare you've had to endure.
