LiandLarry Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 I just got an email from one of Maura Harty's assistants. The namechecks are completed and our case should be on its way fromNVC to GUZ very soon. I don't know what else to say.......I am speechless I guess. It was Maura Harty who unlocked our case and we were at NVC for 383 days. Thanks to everyone here at CFL for the kind words and thoughts over this more than a year of waiting. Sincerely, Li and Larry Link to comment
Guest ShaQuaNew Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 CONGRATULATIONS! ...more great news!!! Good to know our government officials indeed can help.... Link to comment
philb Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 I had the same conclusion after 9 months...an eMail to Maura Harty with a quick response that it will be looked into and instantly my K-1 is forwarded to GuangZhou. Is there a correlation there? Someone's desk comes under her scrutiny and the bright lights get things moving? Phil Link to comment
Yuanyang Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Hot Damn!That's great news. Link to comment
warpedbored Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Very good news indeed Larry. I suppose asking them to expedite your case seeing as how it was their delay would be out of the question. Good luck my friend and I hope you have a speedy P-3/P-4 Link to comment

philb Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 LIand LARRY and other interested CFLers: Correct me if I am wrong...please... The NVC located in Portsmouth, New Hampshire is an outsourced goverment unit..ie. it is a private company competing to perform services for the State Department of the United States Government. Could look see requests from Maura Harty's office be the last thing that they want piling up when it comes time to renew; rebid; renegotiate the contract services? Just a thought...

Larry and Li deserve special consideration and they should be allowed to bump ahead of the line. Their case has obviously been grossly mismanaged and neglected for some time. Without any delay to Larry and Li, USCIS should open an internal investigation as to cause of the delay and the mismanagement of it that followed. How many others are there? How long would the case have sit there until Larry turned the burners on their butts? Link to comment

Phil174152[/snapback]I don't think the waits at NVC are their fault, the cases are really at the namecheck agencies in Washington. They just sit at NVC and wait just like we do for those agencies to finish and send back the approval. Ms. Harty had no reason to go to NVC for anything, she went to the security agencies in Washington where the hold up was. I don't know if NVC is contracted or not but they really don't have much to do with the long waits. They are just the only place we can call to get any updated information, I am sure they take a lot of heat but really can't do much about anything. Or at least that is how I get the procedure anyway........... Larry Link to comment

Thank you very much for your quick action on this case, you are verymuch appreciated. The second part of my letter to Ms. Maura Harty mentions perhaps giving this case "priority status" at Guangzhoudue to the extensive waiting period we have endurred. I respectfully request that our case get priority at GUZand I sincerely hope you can help with this request also. The consulate at Guangzhou will slow down pretty soonfor the holidays and then again for 10 days Chinese New Year at the end of January which will slow down thiscase even more. Also I think it might be fairly standard to send some cases for a second name check once at the consulate.I was hoping this could also be bypassed on this case. I thank you for everything you have done and for what else you can do for my fiencee and myself, you have madeus very happy.

She has untangled several tangles for CFL members. Gosh, a public servant who actually serves the public. Wonder what she is doing in 2008?? Link to comment
