O.K> group - I recieved a brown envelope from CSC today

[MrLonely 0]

O.k. the brown envelope is from the US Dept of Homeland security.........

the first page is an I-797C, Notice of Action.....REJECTION NOTICE !!!!!!!!

This was the "AMENDMENT" (typed in size 18 font and in red on my cover letter) I sent to CSC with the three new forms of the application with the new IMBRA questions...........I even had my receipt number highlighted on my envelope!!

Anyway......the notice states, " The above application or petition along with any check or other form of fee payment, is attached. The application or petition cannot be accepted because the proper fee of $170 is not attached. Since the case is not properly filed, a priority or processing date cannot be assigned.

Please attach a check or money order for this amount and resubmit this entire package to the address listed below. To speed processing, please leave this notice on top.

Note, the fee for this filing will be $170 if received at INS on or after October 26, 2005.

OK.......what was william saying about the intelligence of these people at the CSC?????????

My cover clearly stated that this was an amended application form for an existing application with the reciept number clearly marked on the cover letter in red ink and with a size of 18 font!!!!!!!!

I do not get this incompetence at all..............Don't they even read these forms and letters when they recieve them?

Did anyone else who sent an amended application with the new IMBRA questions get the same results??????

I know that some of you have already tried this.........let me know.........OK??????

Oh my lord, this makes me want to cry real tears. These are the hands our fates are in?

I'm not familiar with your case, but I guess you didn't send out the updated I-129f with the IMBRA questions? If so, there's nothing you can do besides waiting for the RFE and getting in touch with your congressmen/senators so they can request info about your case on your behalf.

The oppressive CSC : they promise to harbour no doubt, enjoy their own ambiguity, and actually exult in their own calamitious hallucinations. Such beautiful uncertainty and rich confusion !

Not at all surprised this happened. If one already has a petition submitted you must wait for the RFE before submitting anything. You took a chance and it didnt work. Now you just sit back and wait for the RFE. Hopefully your wait is not too long.

I hope you know what your saying my grandfather used to work for the government and when they get people that bug them to much they put them on silence... A dog can bark so many times before some one complains... If you want your bark to mean something wait for the RFE... the most dangerous dog is the one that only barks when there is real trouble my fiance and I recevied the RFE for the IMBRA but, we just waited just sit and wait... to much barking they will get mad... so like everyone else saids sit and wait for a while good luck on your journey,

sincerly a fiancee in waiting,

Oh **. What happened? Take Aussiewench's advice.

I guess my point about CSC is validated again. Message below my Avatar says it all!!!

Sorry this happened, but you still have your primary I-129F petition in play, no?

Sorry, this is BS.

I worked for the Government for 20 years, in this century. If they note a mistake, they will do their level best to correct it. What, do you think people are that shallow in the Government? Nope.

Exactly.

Christina, what you may not know is that this system is broken - in shreds. Mike filed in MARCH and has STILL not received his RFE. People who filed AFTER him not only received their RFEs but also their approvals. Obviously there is something very very very wrong here. If he does NOTHING, his file could end up sitting in a pile of dust for three months like waitingincolo whose file was sent to the wrong location. It would still be there is he hadn't raised some hell.

USCIS is NOT a place where you can sit back and wait your turn when you see stuff like this going on. It's pretty annoying and irritating to hear people saying that contacting congressmen or senators for help will get them a "black mark" or that the USCIS operator is going to put a note in their file that they call too much. "Too much barking will get them mad?" Well too f*cking bad. Mike is just a tiny bit mad himself. Give me a break. This guy needs his damn RFE so his file can be processed and just about everyone else already has theirs.

Mike, give 'em hell and good luck.

Hi Mr. Lonely,

I am sorry to hear this happened to you but I believe Aussiewench and everyone to be correct. Wait for your RFE. It's the process.

Also, I hope CIS doesn't browse through VJ, checking out petitioners. 700 letters? Plotting? Etc....

[MrLonely 0]

Thank you all for ALL the advice and ALL the comments - pro and con. Now I want to say something.

I am just a humble, man. I am not afraid to admit my tremendous love for my wife. I now that today men have an issue doing this in public but with age comes wisdom. I have learned that there is nothing wrong for a man to admit love to the world to the most wonderful woman alive. And yes, I keep using the title "wife" for my Kat because in our hearts we are already married - regardless of what any government paperwork says or doesn't say. We have committed ourselves to each other for the rest of our lives - period. It does not matter what others think about my words in this post.

AmericanWoman.....your post made sense. I only write that we have exchanged 700 letters because it's the truth and because I thought that the more letters that were written between the two of us the better the proof that our love actually existed. Your right though, they could be reading VJ and thus take this info the wrong way.

I thank Kit for her words of wisdom. And I think she is correct. The system is broken. Someone has to attempt things that have not been attempted before or we will never know what to do or not to do. I am willing to take this risk. Why.....why would I take such a big risk????

Well, I have run out of things to tell my pre-teenaged daughters who constantly ask me when their new friend is coming to us. I am running out of things to tell my wife when she writes desperate letters to me asking when, and why this is happening to us. I am constantly worried for her because she is not just some female looking for a free ticket to America. I won't get too much into detail here, but her situation is a little bit more serious. All I will say is that her life is seriously in danger where she is right now. And her husband that pledges his life to her cannot do a damn thing to help her!!!!!!!! Desperation????? yes, I would call it that about now!!!

I continuously write letters to her because I dread the day I do not recieve a letter from her. No letters from her is a serious sign of trouble. So we keep writing. Yes, we repeat alot of things over and over again, but who cares, we love to hear them. So we continue to write them.

As many of you all know.......us men are the fixers-of-problems. That is how we are wired. We do things to fix things. Just simply sitting here waiting for a broken system to correct itself is not being constructive or productive from my stand point. I am now continuosly on my knees praying. It is helping me. I am strong today. Normally I'd be all in pieces. But my faith keeps me going.

I had a strange dream last night. I was in the CSC and I found boxes and boxes of all our applications. In the last box I looked into, I found my file all seperated and torn apart. Nightmares????? Yes, I would call this a nightmare about now.

Ok, I will get down from the soapbox now. Note, I admit these things to all not for your pity - but I will humbly and definitely accept all your prayers about now. I'm human like the rest of you all. I'm a man desperately waiting for the woman who pledges to love me for eternity is all.

Now if someone responds back that this is all BS.........oh well..........I can't stop those of you who feel that way. Like Gary once said......."it's pretty much every man for himself now". The world does not care about my Kat or me, or kitkat, or american woman or william or gary or anyone else on this forum. It is too busy trying to make money or start another war somewhere.

Love is becoming a thing of the past every day. I choose to keep it alive. We all have choices to make in this life. I have made mine. Now you all go out there and make your choice of how you want to live your lives.

Mike
