Old TSC cases transferred to VSC

[James 2]

I got my stamp yesterday. It wasn't a big deal. I was in and out in 20 minutes.

I am sure it is not a big deal to get the stamp, I just didn't want to have to go get the stamp. IE. Approve me already!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's an unnecessary, pointless hassle in any event, even if a minor one.

I can't even make the InfoPass now -- I get the message "At this time, there are no information appointments available for the office in your area. Please try back again later." I've heard elsewhere that one sometimes gets that message later in the day, and you have to try first thing in the morning.

Last year I made an infopass... cause I tried to get my passport stamped... (Which they refuse since they said it was enough with my NOA) I remember trying for a couple days... and one afternoon after trying all morning: I got it!!!.... So keep trying.. And James Good luck with the ####### at the Miami Office, cause for my infopass (September) I went to a different one (not the building on Biscayne BLVD) and the lady was the biggest ###### ever!! Sorry for the language... but SHE WAS!!!!!!!

Yeah, thanks, I'll keep trying. What else can I do? BTW, when we went in for the name change a couple of years ago, we didn't go to the Biscayne Blvd. building either -- instead, it was at an old strip mall nearby, just west of Biscayne and north of 79th Street.

Hello all...

No news again today. Le sigh. I called USCIS and the message I got was that my case was transferred and to allow 180 days from the date of the transfer before inquiring about my case. The message also assured me that a customer service representative wouldn't have any information that the message didn't already disclose.

So, I don't know what to think. The officer who gave me my stamp at the local office aluded to a letter that was sent to me on March 28th (according to his computer) requesting additional information. But, I never received a letter and every time I call the hotline about it they say they have no record of any activity after the bulk transfer date.

The waiting game continues. I'm going to try to discipline myself not to check daily next week. I'll see if the "watched pot never boils" saying is true. See you all in a week - if I have the willpower to last that long. LOL

Just came on to say that I reveived my email from CRIS informing me that my card was ordered on May 9th. My file was transfered to VSC on Jan 30.

It's conceivable you were sent an RFE (what the local office referred to), it got lost in the mail, and the customer service reps are clueless about it, feeding you instead their scripted responses. Have you escalated any of these calls to an immigration officer? If not, tell them you want to take the call to a second level. You might also want to go back for another InfoPass just to say I never got the letter I was told about at my last InfoPass.

Edit: I'm serious, if you actually were sent an RFE and you don't respond, you could be in for major league trouble.

Congrats! Roll Tide! (Actually, go Seminoles!)

James, are you a Nole? I am...and here in good 'ole Tallahassee. I wish there was a smiley doing the chop.

Congrats Rolltide. May I ask what the first letter of your last name is and that of your spouse? I want to see if the alphabetical order theory still stands.

I received my card on May 10th, and my last name starts with a K.

Updating for Ara4's card receipt.

Staashi, yes, I am an FSU Seminole! But I have no FSU smilies. With two kids now, I kind of wish I were back in Tally -- good place to raise a family.

Well, Good news that slowly but they are at least working on same cases.... they have not touched (or approved) nobody with NOA May 2007, when they will start I guess it is a another mystery of USCIS...

To be continue....

They've only approved one of us in over two weeks' time . . . they've definitely slowed down for whatever reasons. It's not like they've been approving direct I-751 filers, either. So you have to wonder . . . .

I am tired of this. Why can't we be transferred to CSC and get approved within days like the rest of this freaking forum.

I am waiting till Wednesday and if no approvals, then I go ahead with mailing my passport to be renewed. I have been hoping to do after I receive the 10 year green card. Sigh

Let’s keep our hopes up for this week as before updating the date they might show some efforts.

It doesn't reflect particularly well on VSC. Tomorrow will make it three months that they've received my petition, after it had already been at TSC for ten months. CSC has already approved almost all of the NSC filers that arrived there at the beginning of April. It boggles the mind that CIS transfers long-pending petitions somewhere but then doesn't even act on them for months.

I am sick of this too....but what can we do???? nothing....

I always thought that this kind of stuff did not happen in the first world/// sorry but I am disappointed.....
