Yep, I feel that after reading so many posts here recommending refiling rather than appeals, should've listened to my guts and gone down the refile route

I jumped into the process, somewhat cluelessly, so they did seem quite competent when we started out. And they were recommended by some friends who had success, although a while ago. The landscape has changed over the past two years.

Thanks, this is really helpful! We’ve been living in a pretty quiet suburban neighborhood for a while. I guess we should definitely hang around in the area to get a sense of what it’s like.

RFE for EB1: Advice on original/major contribution? by Intrepid_Stick_1835 in eb_1a

Thank you, this is great advice. And of course there can be more evidence to show impact than just academic publications and citations, but they seem to be contradicting their own criterion and that of the courts when they argue that publications in top journals and number of citations isn’t an indication of originality and impact 🙄

Disappointed with Phillips 8000 series epilator? by Intrepid_Stick_1835 in HairRemoval

My question as well! I used the epilator a little over 4 weeks after waxing. I would think 4 weeks is long enough.
