After everything is said and done today, do you still want an answer? Let's talk again in 2009.

hmmm,,so everything is over now,,so the law's and the rules are still the same right?

Yes nothing has changed. There are still 12 million illeals in the country and rising. There are still ridiculouslyy long wait times for bringing your family to the USA. Chain migration is as it is. Umm what else.
Nothing is changed. Because
The Republicans want to do nothing..so the next time that you complain what is the country doing for you think about the part of the bill that as about reducun wait times for legal immigrants. The part that was about bringing in more legal workers. Think about everything that was missed by thise bill.
When the next 9-11 happens and its an illegal immigrant..remember to ask your senators...exactly why didnt you vote for it?...

well,,actually yea i agree with u about some points,,,it would be better like i said before bcoz the goverment will know who is who? and also they will get more skilled immigrants and alot of things will be better,,but the only bull**** thing is that they wanna limit the immigrant visas for family members?thats bull****,and some other stuff,,but anyway,,it didnt pass ,,so now we'r back to the same ****,,u call the immigration and they said,,still pending?well 7 months ago u told me it was still pending and to call back in 120 days?i dont know who told u this but go ahead and call back in 180 days? u know what, **** them ok,,,iam sorry to say this,,but its true?ppl who's allready married wanna be with ther wifes ,or wifes wanna be with ther husband's?we all understand ,,yes ,we all understand that we have to fallow the law's and the rules,,but its too much?dont u agree with me,,before on some forms they were processing them in months if not years ,and now if u pay the $1000 u get an answer within 15 days?so we all know that its not just bcoz they r busy,,,and i said it before ,,iam not againts anybody ,,and i know some ppl have to cross illegaly to make money and support ther family's....i understand all this ,,but they should focus on helping the ppl who's been waiting for months to be with ther family's? u call ur congress man,,and they said,,we dont have authoroty ,,this is the immigration ,,they r a goverment themselve's...u call ur senator and they say the same thing?so who have the authoroty then?

Mike,
From what I remember about your dilemma in previous postings, the immigration bill in it's present form would not have helped you in your situation. It pertained to folks here in the US currently residing.

Any update on your situation? Still waiting??

no(needhelpfast),,iam still waiting and nothing has changed yet,,i hired a new attorney ,,and hes working on my case,,and hes one on the very good lawyers in san diago,and i have no idea what is he up to,,the only thing he keep telling is that hes waiting on my i-130 to gets prove,,for what i have no idea....hes not working on getting back just by getting the visa from the embassy,or i would not hire him at all,,bcoz sooner or later i will have to go there after the uscis proves it and the nvc,,so what do i need him for,,but hes saying hes doing some research and hes waiting on the i-130 to get proved,,he told me ,,if the i-130 gets prove then u will look better and we will have open doors ,,but i dont know exactly what is he planning to do...iam still waiting,,and iam in the 7th month already and nothing happened yet with the uscis,,i dont know what options that i might have,,he mention something about that might be able to re-open my i-751? but how if i was divorced from that woman?maybe based on my new marriage? but as far as i know ,,in order to do this i should be in the u.s ?so believe me i have no idea and hopefully something good will happen soon
