I-751 Check Cashed by TSC - Will It Stay There?

[Shari 6]

Hi all! Our check was cashed yesterday and the image on the back shows it was deposited into the TSC's bank account. Does this mean it is staying at the Texas Service Center? I thought TSC was transferring theirs out and and I saw where someone else sent their package to one service center but another service center actually cashed the check as it was transferred. All I know is under the stamp showing it was deposited to the TSC account, it is written "VLC_ _" and then underneath is our case number (I assume), "SRC_ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ , but it is not showing up yet on the USCIS site (yes, I know it's a little early). Can anyone give me any insight? Thanks!

I think you may be on the cutting edge here.

The service centers to which TSC had been transferring petitions (i.e., CSC and more recently VSC) were the ones that cashed the checks.

It could mean that TSC is logging in the petitions now and then transferring them (kind of like they ultimately did with ours, only it took them ten months to transfer).

Then again, it could mean that TSC is now starting to keep I-751s for processing there.

If that's the case, you have my deepest sympathies . . . .

Shari, the same thing happened with our petition it shows cashed at TSC and I have not gotten any paperwork from anyone. I got the information and a case number from the back of our check and it has not been found in the system when I try to check it. I am praying it will show in a week if I am lucky. Good luck.

So... assuming they got the check the day after you mailed it... they probably got it March 4th?????

I know they got my package on March 5th.... and the check has not been cashed yet...

And they got another package from Kathryn41 on March 3rd and that was cashed yesterday...

So here's fingers crossed I'll have my reference number tomorrow!!!

Mary,

We will have to keep in touch since our dates are close to the same and see if we stay in Texas or get transferred out. Good luck!

Jamieswith - We sent our package on Monday, March 3rd by overnight mail and it was supposed to be delivered by noon but the receipt said someone signed for it at 5 a.m. on March 5th, Wednesday. Anyhow, it was cashed on the 12th, yesterday, so maybe yours will be cashed today. Good luck!

If it says VLC_____, I'd assume it's at Vermont already....is that the Vermont prefix?

SRC ? It depends on who you ask - if you ask USCIS they'll tell you it's the prefix for the Texas Service Center...

If you ask most of the TSC victims they'll tell you it stands for "Slow and Really #######"

[Shari 6]

So no one really knows what "VLC" stands for written above the case number on the back of the check? Jameswith said Kathryn41 had her check cashed on the 3rd. We need to find out if the back of her check also has VLC.

hmmm, I guess Nebraska's "LIN" then is really "Lost in Nonsense"

[Ashish 1]

Odd . When our check, mailed to Nebraska, got cashed and I looked at the check image online it clearly had California Service Center written on the stamp not an abbreviation.

Shari,

Will be glad to keep in touch with you during this time.

SRC, EAC, LIN etc are old names for the service centers. For instance, SRC (Southern Regional Center), which was the old name for TSC (Texas Service Center).
