Glad to hear you have your family together. My wife got here on Dec 3rd we had a wonderful christmas and new years. she was going to go back on Jan 10 but since TSC is taking so long she has extended it to Feb 27 as she has a 90 day visa. We have just gone ahead and started our life together, we found a house and are in the process of buying it, should go to colusure on Jan 31. and we are just enjoying being together. wife and stepson are loving the US though and he has already made some friends.

That's excellent Sahlis, extending your wife and stepson's stay in the U.S and buying the house here. Good luck and best wishes in all your life events :thumbs:

well, it depends how you look at it: for me every day that passes makes me one step closer to the finale, that's why I am positive and cheerful. And when it turns 4 months, it will be even better, it

Just bumping this up :) Is anybody still here?

I posted this on the CSC to TSC thread but I thought it was important enough to post here, as well: my congressman wrote to me and said that 36,000 applications were transferred to TSC. So...something to think about. And California continues to pump out approvals for September filers! I wonder why!

So...my husband called USCIS on Friday and spoke with someone who said that basically they are currently working on July 17th filers and that they have been really backed up which is why they even transferred our case from California to Texas. She said to call back in two weeks to see what the status was. So, really we are no where further along, and didn't gain much more knowledge. I'm frustrated beyond belief. If they are sooo behind, why are August filers getting approvals? I'm crossing my fingers for news within the next few weeks for us all, this has been such a waiting process, patience is an understatement.

I'm a July 5th Filer and still have no news, just a letter from my SR that told me absolutely nothing but "we have your case and call customer service if we do not do anything for two or three months" this is a paraphrase but the gist of there reply.I'm sorry to say but they seem to be a bunch of fibbers because if they were on June 17 i should have my NOA2 by now.
