Any February 2012 filers?

The process is quite straight forward. They blindfold a member of their staff, they go into the storage office and grab 3 random boxes. The contents of the boxes are then tipped out into one pile, which is then shuffled a little. All staff have to pick a handful of petitions from this pile blindfolded, they then have to find their way to a desk. Once at a desk they can removed the blindfold and start processing what they have.

It's difficult for some as they even miss a lunch break while trying to find an unoccupied desk. I think they should introduce a rule that if they've not got a desk in a couple of hours they should be able to remove the blindfold. Any petitions not complete at the end of the day are randomly put back on the pile.

At the end of the week very little is approved on Friday. This is because they're putting the petitions they haven't yet done back in boxes for storage over the weekend. Then Monday they repeat the above.

I hope this helps, it's the only way I can imagine they do it :P:rofl:

LMAO your too funny.

Thanks all for your congrats. Stay strong i know VSC will approve quite a big bunch of applications dont loose hope your almost all there.

Has anyone here who's been approved, also sent in additional supporting evidence or documents after they had already sent in their initial I-129F? I read from a VSC newsletter that doing so is slowing down the processing times for those people. I did this because I was told it wasn't a problem, as long as I sent in the documents with a copy of my NOA1, but the only catch was it might not reach my original packet of paperwork; but I was never told it could slow it down! UHG!
