August 2008 Filers

[Habibi 0]

they totally missed the early filers!!, i hope they realize this soon because a few September people is getting approved?

At least someone is getting approved at CSC, at VSC no one is getting approved. Early filters and late filters are just sitting at some ones desk.

WOW 35 for CSC? I havent seen number like this since July when they hit 41!

USCIS works on Saturday also (Limited Operations)

helloworld: we filed on the same day, maybe monday is our day. They will realize, oh woah, hey all these early august filers, that combined with goodwill and cheer towards all of us suffering.

and habibi, hopefully VSC will be experiencing the same holiday cheer!

We got no touch either. I wonder if VSC will work next week, cos it's Xmas week. That means they will get even slower...

Both service centers, CSC and VSC will have a 3 day work week.

Yeah, hopefully it's the most kickass 3 days ever...

Helloworld: they did get a few early filers... but they got more early september filers than early august.

I think we could see csc hit 40 for the last week as people who get the snail mail version of the noa2 update their timelines... always seems to be a few stragglers who don't find out online before the week is over.

Federal government offices usually shutdown a week before Christmas and stay stalled out until the beginning of the year. There is basically no work going on at my office unless you count coming in to check e-mail, stare at the walls, lick the windows, and wander outside for "extended lunch" at 10:30AM.

I really hope that you are wrong, i hope that they will work on some NOA2. I need my NOA2. O by the way what government branch do you work in, if its not secret?

That's a pretty negative comment but that is definitely true, so many will be taking vacation time and time off but unfortunately deathnova is correct. May that's why CSC cranked out so many this week. As far as VSC they got some done.

Soinlove you have been a member here for awhile now, looking at my time and your experience that you have seen thru other members when is realistic time when i can get my NOa2.

Hey Habibi, just to make you aware VSC has always been ahead of CSC and in my experience I always kept my expectations very low, you can ask any member of this awesome August thread, I rarely check the USCIS site, I only started this month, December 7th to be exact.

But personally i expected my NOA2 between January 20th and so on.

But then as December rolled along I became very ansy and at times getting angry at CSC.

I wish I can give you some figure or a clear estimation on your NOA2, I know its torture to see your processing center lay dorment and not process as much as the other, some of us got lucky and got ours before Christmas. Rightnow the only figure i can go with is your timeline, that's as close as we could get to an estimation. The numbers don't look great but then you need to be optimistic and strong, hang in there my friend, that NOA2 will come.

I tell yah these things come when you least expect it. I never expected to get mine this early, I didn't even know who CRIS was, I was so close to deleting it or putting it in my SPAM folder! it was actually an approval confirmation.

Thank you for your response, now that you have received your NOA2 what are your next steps. Does the NOA2 automatically gets forwarded to NVC? Do you have to pay filing fee to NVC? What are you doing now in order to bring your fiancee to US. Just wanting to be prepared. Thanks for any suggestions.
