Processing Times

[texasseoul 0]

Processing times and statistical averages mean nothing at this point.

I spoke with an immigration attorney today that is a friend of mine.

In his professional opinon, "OPINION", they will work the cases with RFE's coming in first and not according to NOA1 dates, ie. varying NOA1 dates in the approvals, and the NOA1 dates are not a good indication of the time frame our cases will be worked. He used to work for DOS and has a very good understanding of the internal processes. Also, it depends on the Ajudication Officer assigned your file for the exact order of processing, some will try to work by NOA1 but utlimately they are just trying to reduce the number of cases as quick as possible and not as worried about NOA1's until they get the case load back to a managable level.

Well, maybe we would have better luck guessing winning lottery numbers than guessing the date of our NOA2 approvals......

Thanks for posting this Tex... as 'unfair' as it seems, this validates one of the theories that has been discussed...

Get on with the business of pushin' paper, CSC.

I wish you much luck on your further process. You will make it, just be patient.

It's great to have flexibility and autonomy in the workplace, but possibly not so good when it comes to public affairs. This type of disorganized chaos can only result in unfair treatment of those have been waiting longer and/or couples that were previously approved. They are all being trumped at the discretion of the adjudicator (if this is the case) due to the IMBRA compliance. Not to mention, we are all still very much in the dark waiting to see the light, and USCIS has not stepped up to the plate to give us any hope, guidance, condolences, or anything. It's truly unfair, but such is life. Hopefully we can all make it through this without too much damage and latent hostilities.

Let's continue to support one another and make it through this mess.

My fiance talked to a USCIS representative on the phone yesterday and he told him that they process the cases according the NOA 1 .....

Well this is obviously not happening either at CSC or VSC. Must be the party line they are giving out

And if you believe that, I have some wonderful beach front property for you in Las Vegas.

Approvals have come in from all over the time frame spectrum in respect to NOA1 dates. I would guess the OPs post stating that they just push them thru with little regard to any date is more correct.

Not true. Just look at who's being approved now, and who's still waiting. Proof that this is not even close to being correct.

Obviously, this is another lie USCIS use so that they will look professional and great in people's eyes. They make me wanna throw up. My NOA1 is March 6th.... Where is my approval??? Hmmm.... No more comments.

I'm totally disgusted. I would be lot more merciful if CSC would admit that they are overwhelmed and they need time to process out petitions and ask us to be patient, but not with liars and hypocrites! There is no consideration for us, people. Yeah, that's life and I'm SO happy that I don't have to live an eternity in this world.... YEAH!!!

I have grown to believe that there is a pretty strong PR shield around the USCIS processes. If you want some proof you can just refer to the little chat session that was held with Mr Gonzales... what a load of bunk.
