Anybody else have experiences with getting staffers of your u.s. reps or senators to help? Mine fed me what uscis is feeding them that they are 'frontlogged' due to the price increase. So why are they skipping ahead then? Duh?

I told her july is getting approved mostly now and she listened and said she would mail me the result of her inquiry. But I have a bad feeling she'll write something brilliant like vsc is up to may 20 or that they are doing in order they receive!!

It's funny I emailed a few months ago about another issue with the case and they were eager to help even though I didn't need it, now it felt like I was somehow wrong to feel I'm overdue.

Oh well, guess I'll try the ombudsman's complaint form.

Can't fight city hall I guess, what a country

Hey Dude is it just you and me left here unapproved and untouched.......like a virgin....hahahahahahahahahaha....that has been a long time.....hahaha...o.k. now I have sick humour......OMG....OMG....OMG.....what the he11 is this #######.......augh

I think Ric too? U know, at least before I got to 6 months I figured, oh well it will be over by 6 month commit time.

Now it's like open ended and there is no help even like from this staffer. It's like the twilight zone or '1984' with the VSC speak - you're in our commit timeframe even after 6 months cause we're processing only May 19 or was it April 22 even though website says 6 months and we are approving late july.

Hehe I should call them and tell them to 'go touch yourself!'

Okay guys help me out here!

I just got off the phone with NVC, and the woman told me our case had been forwarded to London already!

...What now?!

How can I track it? Can I even track it?

The guy I spoke with at DOS said I could call back in a few days to verify that my petition gets to London (as of now its just there) and also to find out interview date and stuff in the future. I'm planning on calling again Monday as I don't want to get greedy!

I would love to see the Customer disservice reps face when you told them to do that....hahahahahahahaha

that we are not getting touched because they are touch themselves too much.......wow......maybe we can bring that up at the Congressional hearings...hahahahaha...I really think I am loosing it

I asked my congressional representative for assistance and his staffer returned me a nice letter that said it had been given to an officer the previous day. I had called a few days before, and they had told me it had been assigned to an officer (some unspecified time previously). I pointed this out to the staffer in my return email but recieved no response to that point. But the general idea was, its with an officer, you're just going to have to wait. They also let me know that if I haven't heard by THE NEW YEAR i was more than welcome to submit my query again. So, that was no help whatsoever.

One of my senator's website has posted the following:

Unfortunately, USCIS is experiencing a large influx of applications and is therefore

unable to respond immediately to our inquiries. Please allow 12 weeks for

processing. We will notify you by letter or telephone as soon as we receive

a response from USCIS. I thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.

They also require that you present your plea via SNAIL MAIL (seriously not even a fax).

I'm going to wait until 180 days before I go to my other senator. Maybe a presidential hopeful will think of constituent assistance a good motive at the polls?

Until I hear, or until 180 days I'm just going to continue taking my frustration out on kneeding bread and christmas music.

Hey guys, I was thinking of trying to call NVC either tonight or tomorrow.

I was just trying to get a feel for how easy it really is.

From what I've read it seems to be...call the number, hit the right prompts, give EAC number...and then that's it, right?

I'm not sure.

I'm working up the courage to do the very same thing. I'm gonna try in the morning and see what happens. Hopefully, they won't bite my head off! I've been a really good girl and haven't called anyone at USCIS during this whole process.

I only complained to the ombudsman via email!

both of you should call!!!!!!! they're not scary at all

im sure that they have your petitions by now...mine was recieved by them in 2 business days, and sent in another 2 business days

CALL NOW!!!!! lol

Does everybody who got their approvals are on NVC or on the way to the embassies????

Do you all have your NOA2 hard copy? Just wondering...

Hi Mirla,

I was approved 11/15, my petition left NVC on 11/21 and arrived in Lagos on 11/27.

I have received the hard copy NOA2, I was home for Thanksgiving when I returned it was here. That time was between 11/20 to 11/25.

I hope that everything will work out in your favor with your resubmission of your RFE.

My hardcopy should be here today or tomorrow...

But i have a question:

Of those of you that have their petitions at NVC....Did ou get a TOUCH before it was sent but AFTER your approval????????????????????????/

Hi Faith,

Congratulations on your approval. I never received a touch at all. The only update was 11/16 and it stated that I was approved 11/15. Guess that's a touch. :innocent:

Well I did go to both Sentators and my Congressman and was told 1....my petition was assigned to an officer.....Nov 1....then I was told they found my petition and a supervisor was going to do it...then I was told my petition was assigned to an officer Nov. 27...then I was told they can do nothing else until 207 days have past unless they change the date of processing back again at which time I would have to wait some more..............because I would not be outside of there service times.........It is all bullsh*t
