Old TSC cases transferred to VSC

[Kez/JWolf 6]

Just got this email.

Current Status: Card production ordered.

On March 10, 2008, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register.

If you have questions or concerns about your application or the case status results listed above, or if you have not received a decision from USCIS within the current processing time listed*, please contact USCIS Customer Service at (800) 375-5283.

No offense, but if you're looking for congratulations, you've come to the wrong thread.

You didn't deserve to be approved before any of us, frankly.

People deserve to get approved in the order they filed. Period. Hence, neither you nor any other direct VSC filer deserves to get approved before any of us.

Further, and more to the point, kbf already posted his (her?) approval in a separate thread, as well as on the full VSC list thread. So what's the point of posting it in this thread as well? Strikes me as kind of rubbing it in -- particularly since s/he -- AND YOU -- have hoped publicly that you get approved before us "invaders" do.

I got a question: didn't the online status used to say something about the filing date? like was received on xxx date? it doesn't mention the NOA1 date on mine at all.....

Tweety, I don't have that status anymore, (otherwise I would C&P it for you) but I know my NOA was dated Sept 18, 2007 (from California) and my online status used to show as October 10, 2007. It said something like "Case Status: Received and pending: On October 10 this application was received at our California Service Center. We will mail you information on how your case will be processed, if you move, please let us know. This case is at our California Service Center. " The end.

Hope that helps answer your question

So you are going to be nasty to anyone who filed at VSC that gets approved before you do???? it is hardly kbf's fault that he got approved before you or before me, I am pleased that this part of their journey is over for them and for that they have my congratulations...

Please dont treat you fellow VJ members like this, the decision about which cases get processed is not in our hands, so to say to anyone that they dont deserve to be approved before you, is totally out of order....

Take up your greivence with the TSC because that is where it should be placed.... not at the feet of the people who filed at VSC and until your transfer were on course to be approved at the 6 month mark.... so yes we do feel that you being transfered to VSC is going to push us back in the queue...

We have waited in line to be processed and when we were almost there when things get slowed down.... now nobody can say for sure that you have been put to the back of the line just as nobody can say for sure that you have been put to the front of the line.... The fairest way would be to allocate a few TSC cases to each adjudication officer for them to slot in with the cases they are alrready working on.... for all we know that could be what they are doing.... but for you to take out your frustration on another VJ member because you think they are rubbing it in is childish...

We all want to be approved and I think the way you have been treated from TSC is wrong, does that mean I think we should all stand aside and let you all get processed first... he no... the same as you would be if it was the other way round... but it is out of our hands... there is nothing we can do.. we will get approved when we get approved....

But remember james when you get approved ahead of anyone at VSC they might just feel as Pi$ed as you do now...

Kez

I've got a news flash for you: we are "ahead" of everyone at VSC, whether we actually get approved before those people or not.

The only childish people here are those who think that someone waiting only 6 months should be approved ahead of those who have been waiting a year simply because they filed directly with a particular service center. Or those people who have been waiting 6 months who think that they would be "standing aside" if, heaven forfend, someone who had been waiting a year were approved "ahead" of them.

Obviously, you do resent the fact that we have been transferred to VSC and that we have somehow interfered with your plans for an orderly 6 month approval. Well, I've got news for you, lady: when we filed at TSC, they were doing nice orderly 5-month approvals. Two months later, they just stopped.

You seem to be incapable of grasping the fact that TSC and VSC are not government agencies making up their own rules. CIS is the only agency here. And everyone here filed a petition with CIS.

Time for you to get off your high horse, stop resenting us, and learn to live with the fact that you were never guaranteed a 6 month approval time, just as we were never guaranteed a 5 month approval time.

I agree. Geographic location should not matter. I personally would not care whether there are 2 weeks or 10 months but the injustice of the service center system and transfer policy is simply outrageous. I wish they would centralize it all and approve on first-come first-serve basis.

[kbf 0]

Please dont be mad that my case got approved and some ones else is not...James you been doing great so far...But i have to say that i agree with Kez...

we don,t need to argue here that who is right or who is wrong....All we can do is share our experience so that it can help someone. This forum and you all really helped me alot by sharing your experience. So I just want everybody to please continue sharing your data and dont be mad at any...Just hope that every body will get approved within timely fashion. After all its USCIS and its not in our control....

[kalstravels 0]

I have to agree with James and baunzerbudi.

Congratulations are always in order to anyone that gets approved, whether they are VSC, NSC, TSC or CSC original filers.

But the point is, we did file a petition with the USCIS - and the wait times should be the same for everybody, just like the fees are on a given filing date.

The original TSC filers who were transferred to VSC (like my wife) are in a mess.

We now have to start making arrangements to schedule appointments at our USCIS filed office pretty soon to get I-551 extension stamps. That means taking a day off work, incurring considerable expense in driving to the USCIS filed office (200 miles RT for us) and depending on who you get, maybe subject to a gruelling process just to get a miserable stamp.

So in light of this, I have to agree with James on this, that frankly posting your approval notice on 3 threads, especially this one, is rubbing it in.

Congratulations! No offence taken by me personally...but many people are agitated, and when agitated, people react differently...

Good luck with the US Citizenship process!

Ho wow!!! This got really personal already!!! GUYS GUYS!!! Nothing that you say or not say will make USCIS work faster.... I am a TSC LOOSER TOO... although I am only waiting since JULY 07, I get sometimes angry at people that get approved before me that filed on September ... well that is JUST human nature... ALSO LOOK AT THE LIST on the other threat (VERMONT CENTER LIST) and you can clearly see that my case got lost in between all the approvals!!! That really makes me angry... but, what can I do??? Nothing... what can you do???, nothing ! Let’s not insult each other!!!!

I agree with you..... I still think James was out of line to say the a member here did not deserve to be approved.... that is so so wrong...

Kez

well... understand that the frustration of seeing everybody being approved except us, TSC LOOSER, which we have not done anything wrong... (we are just unlucky applications lost in the limbo!) Makes us be mad at everyone.... I am not saying is the correct way but, like I say it is human nature, and no one is a Saint, now, don’t take me wrong but I had read other threats were maybe you or someone else from Vermont talked about us as "the invasion of TSC" some people could take that wrong... same don't... Hopefully we all get approved because we all deserved it.

As somebody said, there is only one cis, and they did take our money before they took yours so we should be first.

[Cassie 8]

this whole situation sucks royally.

Correct, sir. We were out of our money longer than the people who filed after us. Hence, we should be compensated for the longer "no-money" time period with earlier approval.

James' frustration is understandable, though, obviously, kbl was not looking for a "congratulations", but was merely notifying everyone of his status. Kezzie's, on the other hand, is being a little biaaatch. I first thought he was truly offended for kbl, but later it came up that he himself is an original filer at VSC and has vested interest in having original VSCers get approved before us, the transferees. I am watching you, Kezzie, "meet-the-parents-robert-de-niro" style.
