LMAO!!

Of course, not being a party pooper, but only four cases have made it from TSC to NVC at this stage, so we have not QUITE survived TSC yet! I hope the transfer time decreases, it's around 39 days at present....though I have to say, it seems a slightly less stressful wait.

Who knows, I may get the employees to buy some T- Shirts too!!

Just speculation, but I imagine that they are still going to try to meet that February 18th deadline for those they promised it to (particularly July filers), but EVERYONE theoretically should be getting some kind of notice by March 1. I also hope that they don't start going crazy with RFE's... but I think it's in their best interest to just approve as many as they can as quickly as they can to get our petitions off their desks and to get us off their backs.

In some way, this announcement does make me feel a little better though. Now they have given us a firm deadline that they have to be held accountable for.

I think for people who have received e-mail from TSC for Feb 18th will have their cases stay at TSC and prob. TSC is looking to finish all the cases they have (after transferring back to CSC ) before Feb 18th. CSC will prob. use until March 1st to take action.

What's betting the top brass have been in meetings all day?

THAT is why no one has responded.

MY BIG hope here, is that NVC will expedite us all straight to consulate. Hell, I'm printing this off the website now as evidence. We can all SO use this information to our advantage.

I also note, they have pushed the date back to March 1st.

I ALSO note, it says nothing about shortening the delay in getting our cases up to NVC.

WHAT A MONUMENTAL EXERCISE IN INCOMPETENCE. We should take nothing less than a full expedite straight to consulate.

Oh and - what were the "unforseen circumstances?

I agree, they definitely should push us straight through NVC and to the interview with first priority. Hell, they should waive the rest of our fees!

Yeah, just GIMME SOME TRUTH!!

[jennie ann 15]

When you are at 7 months and a week , let me know if you are still so optimistic

I know many of you have been waiting so much longer, which is why I haven't been banging down doors demanding answers. I know that people like you and others who have more serious situations should get more priority, so I've kept my harassment of USCIS to a minimum. But trust me, I'm not that optimistic either. I am just trying to hang on to any hope that I can, because when I don't, I seriously cannot even do anything with myself. I even started thinking today that I can barely do my job anymore, and maybe I should just quit. Obviously, I can't do that, but that's where my mind goes when I start feeling hopeless.

Yaap same here i also always wanted a public announcement. not getting a approval + no information was not an ideal situation. At least now we all know what is going on and what to expect.

For those who got approval from TSC i think at least now you guys should write to I-130Inquiries.Tsc@dhs.gov and indicate that USCIS has agreed that cases have not been processed and are beyond our estimated processing times then once that are approved should be Shipped to NVC ASAP because they messed up

If "USCIS error" is also one of the criteria for NVC and consulate expedite than this announcement is our proof of "USCIC error".

I dont know what to think... My stomach hurts n i feel like Im going to puke! For like one minute I felt confident that we where going to get approved very very soon...

I dont even know if I would like to stay at TSC or get transfered to CSC... At TSC seems like its taking over a month to get to NVC when it should be taking a week or so, but CSC didnt really do anything with our cases the 1st 4 months they had us to begin with. I mean i didnt even get a statuse update from CSC since NOA1 untill they transfered me to TSC. Thats when i got about 5 updates within November only....

[hindustani24 7]

don't hold your breath if you get a text or e-mail from USCIS in coming days, it may simply be another transfer notice "to speed up" processing. :rofl: :rofl:

I'm very slightly worried they are putting so much effort into approvals, that the already approved may get forgotten about. Remember, only four cases have made it to the NVC from TSC, and poor DanTes and Eguzi have no idea where their approvals are.

I'd LOVE to know what the unforseen circumstances were....

[raj1975 10]

i don't see your rationale behind saying "probably TSC will transfer them to CSC"

didn't they come from CSC to TSC?

Where did you find the info about NVC and Consulate expedite? please let me know

[Never_lose_hope 10]

Is hard to believe anything after this big mess. Until my NOA2 will be in my hand I will not believe nothing :bonk: We have the chance to have our papers in hands of professionals at CSC and this give us hope. The last notice from TSC was with wrong name on it , and they are professionals?

well i said "If "USCIS error" is also one of the criteria for NVC and consulate expedite than this announcement is our proof of "USCIC error"." so i am also not sure.

I just want them to correct their "original" screw-up with my application. I know for a fact (from the Ombudsman) that my application was NEVER sent to NVC... he told me that someone entered the incorrect code in the computer. I'm sure my application is sitting in a corner somewhere collecting dust because the "think" they have another 180 days to reveiw it. I've had an SR and expedite submitted in regards to this NOA.... and still.... they haven't even updated it in the computer (online).... there is no hope for these people (or my case).
