It is good to see VSC doing something (Even if it is moving the files around )

Let's hope for approval! I guess it's rare to see almost identical touches on two different NOAs!

Haaaa I'm rolling that is so true!

I called USCIS on 9/12/08 to apply for an expedite because of financial hardship. Of course the person who answered the phone advised it wasn't possible, but after pleading as to how others have applied as well and were approved because of financial hardship. She entered my case and provided an Expedite # and confirmed I would recv a decision by 9/17/08. NOTHING!!! No touches on line, no evidence of any movement on my case. I am pondering whether I should call them again, but I don't want to rock the boat even if you know what I mean. Any advice from the group how I should handle the expedite request is definately welcome. I am just hoping someone picks up my folder and works on this case as its great to see others getting touches and approvals with similar time-lines. It's very stressful but I have faith!

Lets hope we see more touches this week!

DITTO that!

VSC, READ THAT!! Do NOOOOOT dare forget Marcherssssss

I've noticed that several April filers had their I-130 touched...I wonder this is start of something good or simply re-organizing of files on their end resulting in touches...god knows...we will find out soon. I hope.

Glad to see so many april filers are being touched and will get approvals soon, fingers crossed. Just hope the march filers dont get sucked into the black hole or something. goodluck to all.

Same here!

My husband (petitioner) called USCIS on 9/10/08 to apply for an expedite. After one hour of talking with the officer he got case number for expedite. Officer said that they make a decision by 9/25/08. Of course we didn't get any decision on 25th of September. Well, he called them back. He got information that our expedite request was deny. My husband was surprised because person he talked before said that we have enough reasons to expedite our case. Anyway he asked what was the reason of the deny. Well, they said the reason was only one. Like they said that beneficiary called for expedite instead of petitionary. Can you imagine my husbans face?! LOL Well, we applyed again and this time added one more reason tfor expedite-USCIS error. Still wating! No touches no anything! When my husband called them last time they promised to make a decision in 5-10 days. Honestly, I already don't believe that they will expedite our case. I lost any hope.

The woman I spoke with from homeland security said they only approve expedite requests for people in the military... yes, she literally told me that. I even asked her, "Did you say only military people can get their cases expedited?" She said "yes" !!!!!
