Hi, everyone.

I was looking at the processing times earlier today and for the CSC, it says they are processing petitions with October 2, 2010 dates.

Is this true? This is according to VJ, yet I read posts that indicate contrary information and that te CSC is really processing mid-August.

Which one is right???

Thanks,

VJ timelines us statistics based on when members put in their timelines. Is based on historical data, so is an average..

However, USCIS has noted to NOT expect anything for at least 5 months, so this is the yardstick to use when deciding to call USCIS for status, (5 Months minimum..)

OUR TIME LINE Please do a timeline it helps us all, thanks.

Is now a US Citizen immigration completed Jan 12, 2012.

Okay, so just to make sure that I understand...the charts available on VJ in the 'Processing Times' section is just a HISTORICAL view of the processing timeline of petitions that have already gone through the process. It is not a current view of when things are being processed. Correct?

I ask because I was confused by conflicting data.

I think that that due to the transfer of a large number of June/July/August petitions (the majority still unapproved) that caused the processing timeline to be artificially shortened. Now that those transferred filers are receiving approvals, they will be entering their timelines into the system of 180-210 days that will again throw the average off. Right now, the average processing time is not useful because if you are transferred it's much longer, and if you are not it's much shorter than it should be because CSC was able to get rid of their back-log and start working on Sept/October petitions immeidiately as they came in. Now I'm sure their backlog is filling up again so I would expect the normal time of 150 days.
