Frustrated with VSC Transfers

[David97230 0]

I know I should not feel this way but.......

This month on the 8th, the 9th and then the 12th. I got some touches, I checked my VJ 'time line' on my profile and it was saying that I should be approved by Sept. 28 - Oct 10th 2008 Needless to say I was happy and content thinking it would not be much longer...

Now since all the transfers from the VSC office to the CSC office my VJ 'time line had my approval date as March 2009.... so that just added 6 more months since all the transfers..

Please don't get me wrong... I am in no way mad at you the other filers... I am frustrated with this system and how slow it is.. I read the post from the ex-immigration worker (some of you I'm sure read, if not click here.) that a typical I-130 form takes about 15-20 min to approve.. so why is VSC so slow..

Is it all the FBI background checks? Communications with foreign country's? or just not enough employees?

I said it before and I'll say it again... I would be willing to pay a higher fee for them to higher more people or I would be willing to pay a "rush" fee to get this done faster...

Would anyone else be willing to pay more for a 'rush' or higher fees so they could hire more people? Or what about this.. Heir people whom have gone through the process them self. Maybe things would move a bit faster..

I think you are misinterpreting the data. Any of us that changed our timelines to reflect being at CSC had petitions that were filed a long time ago. So that makes it appear that the average time to adjudicate has lengthened and that CSC is slower than it is.

If you'll note that they are handling the transfers fairly quickly, I'd wager that the transfers are adjusting the timelines only very slightly. Weeks, certainly not months.

Do you want a cookie?

Amen Shpat this guy needs a cookie

are you even serious, how dare you we have waited so long already,

I do understand what you feel but nobody even know what exactly is going inside these service centers..

Please pardon me for saying... It is too early for you to say that you are waiting way toooo long or your wait will be too long..

Everybody wants to be with our spouse at the soonest but it is just fair to let these people who filed ahead of us get their approval first.

It is a miserable feeling not to be with my husband but I know there were people who suffered long enough than us.

Have faith and hang on... Perhaps, the idea of fee increase is fine.. If that would result to faster approvals..

The problem is that we're skewing the data, it isn't that processing is going to take that much longer. It has me thinking that I should change my service center back to Vermont because I don't want to change the predictions by so much. It isn't accurate for one thing. And it is misleading for another.

Just as I think that people who received approved expedites should be able to remove their data from the timeline estimates, perhaps transfers should be able to as well. We both provide data that skews the numbers in one direction or another and that don't represent average, normal processing.

Well I NEVER SAID I've been waiting SOOOO LOONG........ (CaNdiD wiTcH)

I don't think you read and/or understood my message..

SO, please go back and read all the words and don't skip or come to a pre-determined conclusion to my thoughts and question which all of you failed to answer.

But if you do have a cookie.... (Shpat and Kath) I would like one thank you for the offer.

By the way.. Shpat I remember just the other day you crying about things.. so eat a cookie too..

We ALL get frustrated by this process, No need to take it out on each other, Unless it makes you feel better.

Oh and I have been with out my Wife since 02/18/07. Thank you for your concern.

Hope you all get approved soon.

They just raised fees and it hasn't improved service a bit. And a rush fee would mean that yet another bit of America can be bought. While I can certainly afford a rush fee, I don't think I'd like to see one put in place. Immigration is one place where we are all treated equally... and generally very poorly.

What system there is no system.

So either way, dude. Its kaput. Get ready for a wait.

I have this "or will be waiting so long thing" just incase I misunderstood your statement..

Anyway, you didn't tell us that you have been without your wife since Feb 2007.. People will just reply based on your timeline unless you will tell them the whole scenario.. I just want to ask, why waited till June 2008? I mean you could have filed last 2007 or 2006..

I remember such word when my Fil-German nephew visited us. He was holding a damaged/broken toy and saying "kaput"..

Shpat. Sory to hear that... SO why are you mad at me??? What did I do; but ask a question that in some why has offended you?

Have you contacted your congress person or layer yet?

Read my post again... I don't think I'm a fool for asking the questons....

Why is VSC so slow???

Would you (you being everyone here reading this post) pay a rush fee if it ment you got processed faster?

I've contacted, 2 senators, 1 congressman, Obdusmans office, Director of USCIS, made 2 formal complaints against VSC at Department of Homeland security. Talked to Supervisor overseeing Vermonts processing and 2 supervisors at vermont. Where has it gotten me? Please look at my countdown for more infor

TO: CaNdiD wiTcH

The reason I waited to file is that I moved back here to the U.S. from Japan to helped start up a new Advertising firm. My wife and I wanted to wait to be sure it would not fail. Also, so that I had a good income for the I-864 AOS.

So after I / we felt the company was doing well and my income was where it should be for my position in the company. I / we filed our I-130.
