It's about time for VSC to get a second wind. Half of the list is approved...

The last approval in April we know of was on 4/22 and then only one more on 5/5. What in the world are they doing????

Seriously....what are they doing all day long???

Heh, you would be the King of the TSC-VSC Losers® but I think there's a 3 or maybe even 6 month VJ residency requirement . . . .

Well, I would be the Queen actually. =O) And, I have been on VJ for 6 years (read lost old user account info somewhere between K1 and AOS), but most things have gone smoothly *said with a grain of salt* until the I-751. But, I abdicate the throne to you James.

I renounce any claim! I don't even want to be a pretender to the throne.

Funny how I thought you were male. It's not the first time. For quite some time, I used to think Kezzie, may she rest in peace, was a guy.

James, remember that my prediction was 5/15/08, unfortunately it seems a if my prediction is holding up. My suspicion is that VSC is blending in the TSC transfers with the regular VSC filers so they do not unduly delay their territorial filers. Right now, anyone's guess about how the process is done is a mystery.

I wouldn't think they have any special obligation to their "territorial" filers, particularly because only VSC and CSC are adjudicating I-751s now. My NOA1 is almost five months older than the longest pending NOA1 of the direct VSC filers. Indeed, the direct filers who had the same NOA1 date as mine were approved back in October.

CIS rules require processing in the order of receipt. So do basic rules of fairness. It's the American Way.

"rules of fairness"

James, don't use these words while discussing USCIS. it gets confusing.

I haven't been here in a long time but now concerned enough to seek help from everyone. Like others we received email notice that our I751 application (notice date 5/15/07)was transfered from TSC to VSC on 04/02/08. My wife worries that her card expires on 05/20/08 for employment and travel. What can we do to get extended? Anyone have info to help with these concerns?

Keoke

What is or where do I find INFOPASS to make an appointment with my local district office. Sorry but I'm new to this.

I submitted my I-751 on April 19, 2007.

I see you hadn't been added and I noticed looking back that you just had your biometrics less than three weeks ago. That's very curious, I wonder how that figured in to the timing of your approval

That makes me curious also. Is that your fist time doing biometrics or not?

This was the first time I did biometrics. Apparently, USCIS never sent me an appointment letter when they should have. It was only because of this forum that I even found out about their mistake!

Now...a previous poster commented about exorbitant costs and how many other developed countries process immigrants at little or no cost. Well thats just grand! But the real question is, why isn't the U.S. citizen spouse emigrating to the foreign spouse's country? Seems like it would be easier and lot less stressful given that the developed country's is so immigration-friendly, no? The fact is that your spouses all wanted to come here to live and not the other way around. I think that says a lot about the good ol' U.S.A. Yes, things take longer, but here in the States we run a lot more security checks on any prospective immigrant (and rightly so) than any other country. Personally, I didn't enjoy dealing with the bureaucracy of petitioning to get my wife here but I'm all for it if it means avoiding another 9/11.

1). Being British, they have security checks there, but who carried out the 7/7 London bombings? Yeah, British born Citizens. Who carried out the Oklahoma bombing? Yeah, a US born citizen. Also, FBI checks take a couple of months at best, so how are USCIS avoiding another 9/11 by letting our petitions sit in a dusty room for the other 12 months? Maybe if the FBI didn't have to do this second check on us in 2 years, they may have more spare time to find the next 9/11...

2). How many US citizens move to their spouse's home country? Any figures? Of course not. Just because the 'foreigners' on this site came here doesn't necessarily mean it was because of the US. No, we came here to be with the person we want to spend our lives with. Maybe your wife chose the place over the person, but I can pretty much guarantee we didn't. If my wife was from Outer Mongolia, I'd have moved there if she wanted me to. Moron.

3). Would you have moved to your wife's home country if she wanted you to? Doubt it.

4). Are you Lou Dobbs?

Thanks for your questions. Happy to reply to you KC...

Actually I already have moved to my wife's home country in a sense as we have a house there and spend about three months out of the year living abroad. Once she obtains her citizenship, we'll be splitting our time evenly between the U.S. and abroad.

And no, she did not choose "the place over the person" as you surmise. In fact, she's made it very clear to me she doesn't want to live in the U.S. full-time, which is great as my employer has offices in her homeland. My grandparents also emigrated to the States from my wife's country so I guess you could say I'm going home in a way. It's a great place to live. We both look forward to going back every year. Maybe we'll see you there one of these days.

And no, I'm not Lou Dobbs, but I just might be Sean Hannity!

Good luck with your petition KC.

I thought you wanted to leave?

I know I'm a just despicable newbie troll who said he was going to take the high road and walk away but I am in desperate need of attention. So I'm back. Please flame me so I can bask in your focus on me, increase my virtually nonexistent sense of self-worth, and feel that I'm better than all of you.

No dice.

You only roll snake eyes distorting my posts like that James. I never made any disparaging remarks towards you or anyone else. It seems it's you that needs the attention, not me, as I don't pound my chest and stomp my feet whenever I don't get my way and then sling mud. Get over your bitterness.

I still think this is a great site where the majority of participants are fabulous people eager to resolve their paperwork, none of whom are any better or worse than I, notwithstanding James' personal comments and attack on me above.

Good luck to all of you.
