Okay i called the California rfe line.

[MrsRowe 2]

The immigration office was very friendly.

She said that the cases were transferred to ease the backlog, that we already knew.

She said that the cases sent by Vermont Service Center will be processed immediately. As soon as they are uploaded into the system, they will be immediately taken to the floor for adjudication. Having said that, our cases are in transport but have not been recieved by CSC as yet. After they have been recieved it will take about 2 weeks to get uploaded. The people that recieve the cases are contractors and they have two shifts, so they will be working on uploading these cases. She said that i can however call back in about a month to talk to someone and see how the process is going. I asked her how long should it be before i get a decision. She said that it could take about a month and a half to two months to get either a decision or an RFE.

All in all, she said that our cases will be top priority once it has been received.

Good luck to all of us. Let's keep praying.

Very interesting! You all deserve a quick approval now...if the process is further delayed for you all then it's a major clusterf**k by USCIS. This makes me wonder, what is in the works for us @ VSC? I shall call them today and find out.

I like that word. It has already been that for us sitting here waiting for so long. I am thinking that it will only get easier for the people sitting at Vermont Service Center because the load is lightened. Good luck to all of us. I hope we all get the approvals we are so deserve and have been anxiously awaiting.

Called VSC RFE Line and they didn't give me any information, so there goes that. I am never calling again! It only adds to my anxiety.

I also called them. Got to speak to the supervisor.(wasnt and easy task) Now supervisor informed me that his agents arent allowed to speak to me anymore.(haha) She was explaining how they do things around vermont. This is her direct words " Sir, sometimes an agent might MISS a box and more boxes come in and go on top of that "MISSED" box so that might be a problem" They toy with our life like its nothing. Woops we missed a box, now you'll have to wait extra 6 months!.... Sorrrrrryyyyyyy.......

So I asked her to transfer me to CSC she said I might be transferred soon, but not 100%. She also told me to be patient, to which I laughed.

I called VSC RFE line as well today.. The guy was pretty nice. He looked at my file and said everything is fine. He also told me the Processing time on the website is pretty accurate and it's matter of waiting. If am not approved after 30 days after the processing time, then file an ONPT.

[khaleda 0]

Oh he also explained that the Processing date goes by the "Received Date", not Sent Date or NOA1 date... So those of u who file Oct/nov/Dec with Jan NOA1s are way overdue....

Illya - What a torment this process is turning out to be for us. I will regret not knowing much about the immigration process before deciding to get married in India. Had I known better, I'd have opted for K-1 and not gotten married there! But then again, no one f**king plans their life around immigration. As US Citizens, we can only hope that there is a process that guarantees that our families won't be compromised. Apparently, the threat of terrorism or whatever their (government's) excuse has also seem to take that away from us. Ilya - I've a feeling that they will send another batch of cases to CSC.

This is just not right and what sort of democracy we live in that we are tolerating this s**t. Nobody deserves this. Not even our enemies.

Khaleda - That's a very canned response you got there...I was hoping to get more 'color' from them too, but keep on getting these very subdued responses. I am never calling them, unless, god forbid, I get a RFE.

I agree, my fault for not planning around immigration's timetable. Its funny the supervisor, actually asked me why I didnt bring her over with visitor's visa and just did AOS? LOL, caz I am an idiot

I know, but atleast the didn't hang up on me... I think since we call so much, they were asked to not to answer any of our questions.... cuz the more they answer the more ppl will call...

Sux to say, but we can't to anything but wait.. Though I contacted my congresswoman n they placed an inquiry, so lets see if they can help...... but I have a feeling they say the same s**t.
