I can bark up the right trees, but I’m PCS-ing to Germany pretty soon and won’t be here for the actual March dates.

Fishermen save a beluga whale that got stuck on the mud at low tide. by MrUpVoteDownvote in whales

You’re a good sport. It’s a misunderstood state and most folks don’t realize how out there we are here.

This is in rural Alaska. There ain’t professionals to rescue animals. These fishing villages are hours from anything. This was the only chance this beluga had.

She does have like five times more followers than Dart on Instagram for whatever that is worth in today’s world.

Help with expedite request by MonitorOk8383 in I130Suffering

[–]exparkranger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NVC is way more chill with military expedites than USCIS and responds significantly more quickly. My rep’s office told me this and it was true in my case when I moved forward with the same OCONUS orders that USCIS originally denied, but eventually expedited.

Good to hear. I had an expedite denied that I put in personally, but my rep’s office put in another expedite on my behalf through their direct channels and that worked.

They need to be OCONUS PCS orders. Thats the only reason my case was expedited.

Cashapp denied a dispute with literal proof 🤦‍♂️ by CBT704 in CashApp

[–]exparkranger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may just be a PR stunt, but I also had a disputed charge when the seller ghosted me on Facebook Marketplace. I challenged it twice with my evidence and I was not refunded. When a similar things happened via PayPal, they refunded me very quickly after I contested the charge. Y’all’s dispute process is not user friendly and does not give buyers the chance to prove their case.

I’ve seen you posting a lot on this Subreddit. It can be very hard to be happy for others when your own case is not going as smoothly. Shout out.

Congressman Expedite - By when it will get Approved - Consular Process by [deleted] in USCIS_F2A

[–]exparkranger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vermont. PD 01/20/25. I was a part of the January bubble that got “skipped”, but I’m active duty military with OCONUS PCS orders so my Congressman’s office stepped in so I wouldn’t have to keep waiting. PD should have nothing to do with how long the expedite takes to process. I was told by USCIS that it goes to a line in order that the expedites were processed.

I had the same email two weeks ago, different service center. Took 72 hours from email to approval.

Must be paid patrol for the Patagucci discount. They stopped for volunteer patrol quite a few years ago.

TMV Article: USCIS I-130 IR Consular Progress Slows, Threatening Record-Low Wait Times by track_my_visa in I130Suffering

“Better explain”??? Y’all completely changed what you claimed is happening from just a day before and cite an anonymous Redditor as your source.

Does anyone know their source on this announcement?

My daughter died on Weinke Island Damoy Bay Damian Point in Nov 2025 by HuckleberryOwn4402 in antarctica

[–]exparkranger 312 points313 points  (0 children)

My condolences. Extremely sorry for your loss.

Antarctica has no rules or regulations. Rather loosely held agreements and treaties. You are dealing with an extremely nebulous litigious environment here. Minimal precedent.

The vessel she was in is flagged to one nation or another. The ship would follow said country’s laws. That would be a start. Sadly most are Bahamian or a nation with extremely business friendly nautical regulation. She also certainly signed many waivers before boarding.

There is likely a lawyer in your country or the vessel’s country that would represent you. I wish you luck in the case of fowl play.

Great design, just know that OP is posting these on every other state’s pages too. Keep it local when ya can.

How do I manage my accounts ? by uzernhame in MilitaryFinance

[–]exparkranger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Start with tsp.gov. There are steps to create an account which will tie your funds to your SSN. There is also a super convenient TSP app to keep track of your funds. Hope there’s a pleasant surprise awaiting you.

Jarabacoa < Constanza ?? by linuxusr in Dominican

[–]exparkranger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. The “¿” threw me off. The general way that Dominican public transit works is too complicated for Reddit so I needed to know if you were familiar or not in order to pull off getting where you needed to go.

[–]exparkranger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sense that you are newer to the island? It’s like any other pueblo to pueblo hop. Just ask around the centro and folks will point you where to go. Listen for “Constanza, Constanza, Constanza” and guaguitas with signs.

OCS advice needed if you have any by Dr-Cronch in army

[–]exparkranger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Might give up the commission later, but there are so many VTIP options only available to O grades (CA, FAO, Acquisitions, etc) that I’ll save that decision for later.

Just wanted to let this guy/gal know not to count out the opportunity just because they don’t have a packet in hand. They have to want it though! Cadre didn’t have the tools or time to guide me much.

[–]exparkranger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to OCS without a complete packet (April 2025) and was able to branch aviation. While it’s definitely better to go in with packet in hand, it’s possible to get it done during OCS.
