2008 March/April/May Filers

[cmnb 0]

As of now it seems I am the only one who is waiting for NOA2 in the March/April/May filer category. My case is still stuck in VSC.

Anyone out there who is still waiting for any movement

I am still waiting for a precious present: A darn approval.

desiman - did you submit the RFE requested?

i see your approval coming very soon...hopefully before end of next week.

April filer here, only a touch last month. Still waiting for something new myself.

You're not alone. It seems CSC isn't exactly going in chronological order from the applications they received from VSC.

Yeah, I did. It's on my signature & timeline. I sent it on 12/1, case resumed on 12/5. Had two touches after that, but still pending. I don't think I have much patience left...

Thanks!

I'm also still here........ I don't see it happening this year for me, its just the way VSC operates you all see that. Good luck to everyone still waiting from february and march and yes there are a few if not many couples still waiting this long. And those who just filed please hold your horses. Thanks

April filer here. Got I-130 application transferred last November 6 from VSC to CSC. Still waiting and still do not know what's going on. I just wonder why some May filers got theirs transferred in November 5th and now they get approved already. It seems that those whose I-130 got transferred on November 5th are already getting their NOA2 and the November 6 (batch) are still waiting.

The online system (on my case) did not even show a "touched" status, whatsoever. It would be a great step forward if there is at least some changes or update. My husband tried to call but all they say is whatever you get to see online, it's the only thing that they can give you on the phone. So we gave up on calling them. I am about to send my AOS, I-765 and I-131 already. Anyway, good luck to us all.

Ok, I just discovered how the "touched" case look like - it's nothing but an update. Well, the last time my I-130 application received some attention was November 14, 2008. That's like a month ago. I was just trying to make myself laugh at this ---- maybe that USCIS person, who is currently handling my case just took 2-3 weeks off from work and left his work unfinished. Who knows that person is now snow skiing in Colorado or something like that. So this is really really upsetting. I have so much questions in my head right now that I just wish I could ask them about. Like how do they distribute work in the office. Some USCIS personnels seem to work faster than the others. If your case landed on some slow turtle-like personnel, then you are bound to wait for 9 years before they can even get their hands on your case (I was exaggerating, but ya'll know what I mean). It makes me really want to send an email to the ombudsman already. Problem is, it will take months before the ombudsman's office makes any reply. Frustrating bureaucracy and there goes our dollars.

Ur luck at least you got transferred to CSC...I am sick of seeing May 14 2008 every time I log in to USCIS site......

I am just praying for mercy...ha ha...May be the lord will shower his blessings this Christmas......

Santa are you listening...This Christmas....Please give me a approval....AMEN

PS I am praying this hard at Christmas after 15 Years...ha ha

Aman --- try calling the USCIS and tell them that your case is now outside normal processing times. My husband called USCIS last Friday and complained that ours is outside normal processing times already. Looking at your info, yours is with the USCIS a little bit over 7 months. Normal processing times for I-130 is 6 months. I know it is an average length of time to wait for the I-130 but if it was that long already, there should already be some actions done to make your application move forward. Anyway, after my husband called USCIS, I checked USCIS and saw that they made an update that same day. He called 12 noon, December 12. I checked online around 8 pm, Eastern time and they had an update on my case. Then my husband just mentioned that he will make a follow up online everyday (He did not mean to scare them but he just wanted to make a point that we are on top of it.) Took 7 months also for mine to get transfered from Vermont to California. Just try calling -- make sure you have the NOA1 on hand when you call. Goodluck!

Thanks Lianne

Will ask my hubby to do that, But I don't see VSC giving any approvals, they are just transferring the files to CSC.

What was the update on the site, did they actually transfer your file...I hope you get your approval after all this follow up with VSC.

I am just working on getting my PCC and other docs so that we don't waste any more time post approval

God I am desparate for approval
