I was referring to those whose cases were not transferred to CSC. i did not receive any RFE and I have the same local office as the girl who filed in January but now have an interview date so I really don't know what's going on. i know that every cases are handled differently but it sucks when you have to wait this long and see other people who filed way after you get their greencards but oh well.....

Their "We process cases in the order we receive them" note in the NOAs seems so bogus with all that. It's like false advertising.

i bet they have some sort of internal formula for how cases are dealt with. i refuse to believe that they handle cases based on how they receive them..

so how do u explain ppl filing around the same time and having varying approval/interview dates. i def dont think all cases are dealt with the same way and thats all im saying.

Maybe like the "randomness" of the additional security checks at the airport.

and we both know those arent 'random' so all im sayin is there must be some sort of internal formula for things they look for in each case, and that would explain alot even though there is no proof really.. like what determines why some ppl get no interview? y do ppl like myself get it in three months and others wait for months longer even while we filed at the same time. i cant chalk that up as random

Internal formula, mood of the person who's desk it's on....

I had a fight with Mr. X so anyone whose name is similar will be transferred into the long line.

exactly..! so whether it be internal formula or mood or whatever..my point was that there must be factors that influence how cases progress through the AOS channels.

We need to "recruit" former USCIS folks to come to VJ with some insight. Whatever they're doing doesn't make sense.

yeah that's actually a great idea...be able to share things that the reg person would have no idea about. like u said that's that's the only way to explain some the things that they do

There also needs to be some kind of immigration process reform. The politicians are only talking about how to stop those who keep entering the US illegally. Nothing seems to be done for those who are going through the motions to come here legally.

That's a great news!!! Congatulations!!!!

"Have faith in God, Jesus answered. I'll tell you the truth. if anyone says to this mountain, Go, throw yourself to the sea, and that does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen. it will be done for him. Therefore I'll tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours" (MARK 11:22-24)

Chicago DO. Downtown on Congress Parkway. About a 20 min bus ride for me :)

What is yours? I'm gonna ask the IO at the interview if he/she knows the name of the person in the MSC that administered my file. I'm gonna guess it was the same for me and you :)
