Any recent approvals out of the Texas Service Center

No touches today. I never get touched!

[James 2]

Fellow TSC LOSERS,

I have good news and excellent news, not sure if they are related to each other... I sent in my application N-400 which was received on Feb 1st at TSC (as per USPS online) On that application I sent in copies of expired card along with copy of NOA extension letter.

This morning I received an Email, confirming card production , here is what it says,

"The last processing action taken on your case

Receipt Number: SRC07104*****

Application Type: CRI89 , PETITION TO REMOVE CONDITIONS OF PERMANENT RESIDENT STATUS RECEIVED

Current Status: Card production ordered.

On February 1, 2008, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you...."

I guess things are finally getting done. Not sure if N-400 application had anything to do with it. Also I have been checking everyday and I never got a "touch" GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

Congrats, vumbi! And good luck on naturalization. Say, you never did get to be King of the Losers!

Speaking of the King, I'm wondering if ven2lin was either approved or got an RFE. I don't think they transferred anybody with an NOA1 of February 15 or before.

It looks like people with NOA1s after February 15, 2007 were either transferred or got socked with RFEs, while everyone after March 1 was just transferred.

Everyone's getting touched! I hope it's consensual. ;D

I too had my file touched today, I guess that means the files arrived in Vermont.

Mine was touched today as well. Somehow, I feel dirty.....

I thought you said you were approved (or at least told you were approved when you called customer service)? I take it instead of an approval, your online status now just shows a transfer to Vermont?

Looks like im still at TSC.... not transferred ..last touched 1/22/08...

i havent been transferred either and i would like ot know who else hasn't.....

i am trying to figure out if it may be because my NOA of 06/25/2007 is relatively late compared to most of the people who got transferred, but your NOA is in February so that might not be it...

anyone else not get transferred yet????????

Ah ha. This is why the customer service number is a complete waste of time! Bad enough that they are unhelpful, but when they tell you that you've been approved . . . .

I'd tend to see that as a positive sign . . . meaning, like vumbi, you are about to be approved by TSC. Else they would have transferred you. Or given you an RFE . . . .

[James 2]

Well, this is kind of messy, but whaddya gonna do. I had to eliminate the date sent column, which is meaningless anyway (except, perhaps, if one hasn't received an NOA1, but that is limited to markwash02, who was approved in December).

I've made a couple of assumptions. First, that everyone on the list who was transferred did NOT get the notice that says "we transferred this case to our VERMONT SERVICE CENTER location to conduct the interview."

I've heard that some people have gotten this notice (e.g., a newbie named disneyworld and a couple of others), but I don't see anyone on the list. Check your notice and let me know if it does say this.

Also I'm assuming everyone who was transferred was touched on Feb. 4.

We should probably start a new thread with a list abandoning the already-approved and the left-behind . . . .

"VSC?/Int?" means whether the case was included in the bulk TSC>VSC transfer of Jan. 31, 2008

and whether the accompanying notice stated that the case was transferred "to conduct the interview."

Thank you, James.

If you don't mind, please update my information with (senator involved and service request). Not sure if it carries any meaning though.

Now all the VSC folks are ticked at us..........

[tweety 1]

Good morning all.

I just got back from my infopass appointment. It was short - and as usual when dealing with USCIS, not very informative.

I couldn't get a stamp in my passport, because the lady told me that the NOA1 was still good till May (so I guess the NOA1 extends the greencard calculating from the expiry date of the greencard - for anyone else who has been wondering about this).

I've enquired about my case being transferred to VSC and all she told me was that this was a good thing, as it would speed up my approval and I should have my new greencard before the NOA1 expires i.e. May 2008.

She said I wouldn't get a new NOA from VSC. Oh well, we will see what happens.

On a side note - I was there at 8:45, and the customer rep ppl at USCIS already had a bad mood, is that a hiring requirement for the USCIS customer care reps?

[junglee069 0]

someone is really busy at vsc touching everyone.

i am guessing that the touch is nothing more than an indication on vsc's part that they have gotten our files.
