No one really knows what it's like to be in our shoes unless they have been our shoes. And I understand your frustration my friend, sadly, there is nothing that can be done. That is reality of what is goin on now. And it hurts me to actually say those words cause I can truly understand what you must be going through along with several others who are frustrated by backlogs or longer approvals but we absolutely must SUCK IT UP.

Why not try to take our mind off of things? Let's advocate for the Drea
Act! Lets actually stand on an intersection on a busy highway and pass out flyers of the Dream Act that promotes it! Ideas that reflect the positives that would come out of allowing us idividuals with degrees in various fields to work in the United States and contribute to it's power and help it gain dominance in every aspect compared to other nations. Convince the citizens of this country that look down upon us "immigrants that don't deserve to be part of our nation because they bring us down", that we are individuals with high level degrees that can actually boost the economy, we can create jobs with our innovation, our business centered backgrounds.



There are a couple of users on this forum that are waiting for approvals for a really long time now, almost a month, and I won't point them out but that is the attitude we must have. They are frustrated as well but they realize the sad truth that what's done is done.

It is kind of sad that you read in this forums some members arguing along the same lines. Those people that are doing the walk-ins are taking my spot, they should get in the back of the line.

For me, if a DREAMer benefits from a walk-in good for him/her!! I've waited a lot of years to get a work permit, what is a few more months more?? I get the feeling that those that are complaining are just bitter that they did not think of doing a walk in. It would be better to have a cooperative mentality (being happy when a fellow member gets their application approved) as opposed to having a competitive one (being jealous and bitter because someone's application got approved faster for reason X or reason Y).

And like another member said, complaining in the forum will not change anything. I am 99.99% sure that USCIS will not change its policy because of the comments here. Instead of arguing why not keep this forum a place where people can come in for information and moral support?

Just because those who are already approved have a timeline of 25-30 days doesnt mean your application will be approved with the same timeline.

You have a valid point. However, the point is that walk ins will delay the process and there will be a back log. God forbid that it does really get back logged, it will reach the news that because of walk ins the DACA has been back logged. So wouldn't these same people who look down upon us say " You see you give them an opportunity and they screw up the system". I know a lot of people who think this way. All the naysayers and such. As you said we have higher degrees and post graduate degrees shouldn't we know that the actions we take create consequences for others our fellow Dreamers?

As one pointed out about survival of the fittest, haven't we all been on "Survival Mode"? So shall we act like savages on survival mode and keep doing walk ins or be "civilized" people as you have said and start acting like it with this great opportunity that has been given to us the Dreamers?

Exactly my point. I am not bitter either. There are consequences to actions that's what we all are saying... Why condone or encourage that kind of action?

Really back logged in Nebraska... Greeeeeaaaaat....

What I'm trying to say now is that, what's done is done, lets not cry about it and if it really is affecting process times, then lets be patient.

You are absolutely right though. But do you wanna how fortunate we are to have this process? Without this we would still be living our dull lives trying to squeeze out some sort of happiness day in and day out. Do you know some green card petitions have to wait for years and in comparison to those wait times, ours is still the fastest even WITH the backlog.

I'm not defending a walk in at all actually if it does slow down the process time. I'm against it if it has that impact and we should try to prevent it not for selfish reasons but for reasons that affect our entire image in the american community.
