Apparently their current stated date is always the single oldest case currently being processed. It is possible that July 4 represents an outlier and the center of mass of the longest pending cases is actually several weeks later.

DON'T PANIC

Agreed, but it wasn't my point.

4th of July is national holiday. No mail delivery and I honestly doubt anyone was working at VSC that day to issue a NOA.

So, there are no real cases from that date, are they?

Hmm, I'm not sure what it means when they say they're processing dates as of July 4th. I know they have handed out approvals on days I wouldn't think they're open - holidays, Saturdays, Sundays, so perhaps they did process NOAs on July 4th. I'm not sure.

Phil's parents are in town from Canada. They were telling us how Phil's sister is going back to work soon since her baby is almost a year. She was on maternity leave the entire year...getting paid! :wow: Canada gives women a year of paid maternity leave while the U.S. just promises to keep your job for 3 months but offers no pay. Hmm...If USCIS/GCs/Visas weren't such a headache and hassle, living in Canada may be in our future :lol:

Just checking in. Still no VSC approvals, eh? Poor guys! Actually it's 6 weeks not 3 months of unpaid leave for maternity leave. yeahhh I knowww. Sucks. I'm 21 weeks right now so a few more months to go and junior will arrive =)

You must be excited!!

This wait is getting ridiculously long... still no August approvals which means we are no closer to approval than the beginning of May. What is wrong with you VSC?!
