I am not taking any bank info , when God willing , i get my interview...i make roughly about 55k on the books, and another 17k off the books..unfortunately i dont have much saved up...mortgage, car payment, insurances and just plain life living in NY is not cheap...and to top it off , my four trips to see her this year wiped out what i had saved...but from what i heard , if you have enough income on the tax transcripts and the W2 forms , you should be fine

Oh, the things I miss when I'm up to my backside in cardboard boxes and drywall dust.

As for the point of whether or not people were grumbling about processing times last year - of course they were. They were when I processed two years ago. They were when the site was started more than five years ago. In fact, lack of information and lengthy processing times were the REASON the site was started. So there is nothing new under the sun in that regard.

Is it something new on VJ that people have jealousy about those with shorter processing times? No. Is it something new for those members with shorter visa processing times to be told they 'can't possibly understand'? No. Not new at all.

The ONLY reason some of us who have been at this a while occasionally come forward to take another beating is to ask you all to look inward. The intent of my post (way back in this thread) wasn't about JUST the immigration processing you will have to endure after you are reunited.

I'm sure all of you still separated often say what my husband and I used to say - that you just want to be together. That you just want a 'normal' life - you just want to be a 'normal' couple. Well, guess what? One day, you will. One day (probably several years from now) you will wake up and realize that the foreign born spouse you wake up to each day is just another man or woman with only a few minor differences from the conventional mate you might have found in the states - you know, they have that lovely accent or beautiful skin color you couldn't find around the block. They probably have some virtues similar to what you were looking for in a spouse. I assure you they come packaged with some of human natures annoyances too. So.....in time.......all the waiting will fade away, it will pass, and you will have to deal with your long-distance lover just as you would have the boy or girl next door. For all of your sakes, I hope and pray you have not romanticized your separation beyond the point of not being able to see that eventual horizon.

But there is a layer to these relationships that is unlike the conventional kind. Are you prepared? Are you prepared for all the things previously mentioned - delays in being able to work and drive? Language barriers? Are you REALLY ready to help your spouse start over just like a child - having to learn all over again how to function daily in society? Learning how to post a letter, count currency, find a favorite cereal on a shelf? Learn what words and phrases are socially acceptable here, and what ones are not? Are you prepared to help them with everything and everyone they miss from home?

And are you prepared for how society will react to them? Are you prepared for the employers who subtley discriminate against hiring the non-American born? Are you prepared to help your spouse translate their foreign credentials so those willing to hire them can assess their qualifications? Are you prepared for the people who DON'T find your spouses' accent or skin color as charming as you do? Are you prepared for the hostility of them being viewed as 'another immigrant' seeking a greencard, looking to suckle off the great American prosperity machine solely for their own benefit and at the expense of American workers? Are you aware that all the media attention towards immigrants these days is not productive to your loved ones future in America? Are you aware that as laws are crafted (as they surely will be in the near future) they WILL affect your spouse? Even if those laws are designed to stop the flow of so-called 'illegal immigration' - are you aware that some they those laws will possibly reach in and touch your family?

Your journey is not over when you receive NOA2. It is not over when the visa is approved. It is not over when the greencard is received. It is not even over if your spouse naturalizes. Each step of the process brings you to another plateau and THAT IS ALL.

Because we have chosen to love and marry someone from outside our culture and border, the rest of our lives will be different. In most ways, it will be beatifully and wonderfully different. Our families will benefit from blended cultures and our eyes will be opened to the differences of humanity. But in other ways (and hopefully they will be few for each of you) you and your spouse have challenges to face normal married couples don't experience. I am here to tell you that the fact your relationship survives this separation now IS NOT PROOF you will be able to endure all that life, immigration, society, and bigotry will throw at you.

Because one day, your life will be NORMAL. Can you handle the unique challenges you will face as a blended-culture couple once you are finally NORMAL?

With patience and understanding - you can. So - become patient now. The government is not the thing that will kill your relationship or your marriage. But American impatience and intolerance can - and I say American because that 'microwave mentality' is so prevalent in our culture today. We want what we want now and on our own terms.

Funny - life isn't really like that. Never has been and never will be.


Rebeccajo, great post.....In my case its a little different, i have stopped to think about the things that come in a relationship when living together but that's the only thing in my case....My fiance is Colombian and so am I....New York, thank God is extremely diverse and she has some family here...as for work, i told her she doesnt have to work, she is going to get here and just try to refine her english, but that will be maybe a year after she is here..I live where i work so i will always be around for her...I want her to take the first year just to see all the new things about this country and to do simple things like take a walk with her son down the block to central park and just see what life is all about here...Thank God i never forgot my spanish, so the language barrier is not an issue...She is an esthetician in Colombia and thats her passion so after refining her english we will look for her to get her licensing to follow her passion for esthetics.....Allin all i think i am very fortunate that ur transition will be a little easier

I was separated from my fiance for 5 months, is my opinion worthy enough for VJ? My interview took 151 days from filing - hope that's good enough! wacko.gif

A year ago we had crazy IMBRA delays.

This year fees went up & there was a mass influx of apps to beat the date. OF COURSE THERE WILL BE SLOW DOWNS. You'll get thru it, ike the thousands before you, no matter if it's 2 months or 10.



I was long distance for 8 months, but we were in the same country so we didn't have to do K1 and our AOS didn't take that long so I know I'm not good enough for half the people here. (I thought the interview letter was a fake, took me 2 days to believe it.)

It's always a struggle, and everyone's always going to think they have the short end of the stick (when they don't, at least they can bring their loved ones here), and everyone is always going to have issues that make their case nervewracking to them. I'm just so tired of seeing this entitlement minded ####### and these pissing contests about WHO'S JOURNEY IS MORE DIFFICULT!!

We're all in this together, or we're all supposed to be. This isn't support, this is more just trying to bring people down because OH NO THEY COULD NEVER UNDERSTAND MY BEING AWAY FROM MY FIANCE. Newsflash: THIS IS WHAT WE CHOSE. I'd question the US government if the US government just let anyone and everyone in who said they were a fiance of a USC. If you can't accept the long wait times, then move to their country. I'm sure I could move to Peru in an instant (or if I can't, it's hella hard to find information on the process which leads me to believe it can't be that complicated) but we didn't choose to do that so I have to accept that which I cannot change. The US is the country with more fraud than any other, and a lot of these applications are coming from high fraud posts and they have to be careful.

I'd so like to see a little more of "we'll get through this" as opposed to "my journey's harder kthxbai" but that will never happen. This is America, after all.

(And dev you know none of that is directed at you, I agree with you completely tongue.gif)



OK, first ill say that the waiting , i expected...its the disorder, or more, the being kept in the dark thats so bothersome...I guarantee that if the customer (us) was kept better informed, none of the feelings of frustration would be expressed...At least we would have an inckling as to what is going on

I have been separated for over 4 months without even receiving my NOA2!!! so 5 months doesnot even seem realistic, for me or for the many others with the same predicament!!



apparently not, Devilette. At least you have more of a fighting chance than I, who "only" waited 2 months, but whose empathy and or sympathy is not welcome because I didn't suffer enough. But that's ok, since TSC is coming back to bite my butt on getting my 10 year green card. karma's a pain, hey???

VJ, sheesh!




Not about empathy not being welcome....its that im sure they way the process is going now, i would trade it for the way your process went any day...its very aggravating being kept in the dark...the first couple of weeks, no make that months , i was patient waiting , but as time goes by and its like looking for a needle in a haystack...to be separated from the one you loveand yearn to be with....not easy

It is very easy for those who were processed or united with their SO in under 2 months to defend USCIS....i don't think it is understod how hard and stressfull it is to wait so long and on top of it, to be kept in the dark without a single clue as to when you might be getting an NOA2....Something is seriously wrong with this!!



Byron I am not exactly sure that this is a fair to state as this is not really about defending USCIS it is about understanding that there is a reason someone is an ASYLEE. For the most part they are generally her for their safety.

As for being processed quickly....well if you read our timeline this is not the case for us. If you read the RFE thread you will see my posts in there. We had a hard time of it due to USCIS (VSC) errors not our own. It took over 4motnhs to get our NOA2 from VSC and never we did we get a correct answer when we called the center itself. It was not easy, however I can honestly say wit hand on heart that I cannot compare the k1 process with those that are ASYLEES...not the same at all. Like I said the wait is difficult, not knowing anything is even worse, however at least we are safe and our loved ones are safe.

If you feel the need to be upset over time frames, then think about how hard it is when those that applied after you are receiving their NOA2's and you have not even had a touch....been there done that!
It is the way the process is. Does it need to be fixed..sure I believe so. But when it comes to ASYLEES, I will not complain.

On a personal note I have been a victim of a violent crime, and I can promise that there was nothing more important to me then the need to feel safe. Hence why I am a Victims Rights Advocate today.

I for one would not want to be an ASYLEE. I feel for those people for the most part.


I could understand the asylee point completely, but like i said, the system needs revamping....why not separate it into visa type divisions!! Let be a steady pace for everybody !! Especially now that they raised the prices, and mind you , not by a little...there should be no excuse for the stop, because thats what it has become, not just a slow down but a stop

"If there are asylees in this country who were victims of political oppression in their homeland, and the US government wants to make some exception to process their cases prior to family based cases, that is admirable in my opinion.

Being separated from your boyfriend, girlfriend, or spouse a few weeks longer in order to save removal of persons who might possibly be sent back home to tyrannical governments should not be a reason for outrage".

I have to agree with RebeccaJo on this one.

It is not easy to have to wait through the USCIS process. I for one was not happy with the process, however, I do believe that those in NEED should have some priority.

It is not different to being TRIAGED at the ER. Heart Attacks should and do go before ear aches.

If we were being set aside for back ups do to their own accord that is different.

There is a reason why they are Asylees and if we can help then we should. If the way we help is letting them be a step ahead then it is all good.

We may have to wait a bit longer (not easy I for one know this), but at least we are safe and our loved ones are safe.


oh ok cool. currently there are a few thousand Iraqi asylees in Syria looking to get a visa to come to the usa. I figure its only a year to process them then sure, we wont mind them getting to our petitions. And i think that most of the cuban petitions put to the front are given an interview in switzerland, not cuba. I dont mind waiting for asylees, but i do mind waiting on ineffiecnt government #######. cutting the service centers down to 2 when they already had a backlog before the fee increase was the worst decision. They are a business just like any other and i can complain all i want if i so choose to. they are responsible for their decisions to their paying customers. And thats what we are, even on their own website. Customers...

So she should have her visa in hand next week (they mail it to her). I was already going to visit her, so now she hopefully will be coming back to the US with me! I'm so excited! I'm hoping we can get a half way decent fare and a seat for her on my return flight.

Then don't say people have nothing to worry about if they haven't heard anything in the first few weeks or whatever. It's not true. Ask just about anyone here that has received an RFE. Customer disservice has given everyone here accurate information? Is that what you are saying? Good night to you too. whistling.gif


Maybe you forgot what I said initially. if so here goes "I was really nervous when I first filed and I was wondering if I would be sent a request for additional info. When I called the USCIS a few weeks after they received my petition, I was told by an agent that a request for additional info would have been recorded in the system already, so I had nothing to worry about. Maybe you can call and inquire for clarification.

Hope this helps"

Once again this is my experience that I shared. If you have something to say about how inaccurate the USCIS may be, thats fine but don't try to make a case against me...I am obviously not the person you should be targeting your frustration at.

Its all good though. We are all frustrated...but lets direct it to those who deserve it. I wish you luck in your process. Take Care.

How would you know if the agent was telling the truth? You didn't get an RFE so the point is moot. Your case isn't even looked at in detail until it hits the adjudicators desk. How could they issue you an RFE 4 or 5 months prior if they haven't even looked at it?


I am not going to get into a debate about whether or not the agent was telling the truth. Neither of was standing over him when he looked into the system and told me that if there was a problem it would have been noted already. I simply stated what occurred. You seem like this issue hit a hot spot with you, but once again I am not the one...find some one else to argue with. We are here to share our experiences. Have a good night smile.gif
