My fiance called to put in a service request (our NOA1 date is May 18). He spoke with a Tier 2 Immigration Officer. He was told to call back in 2 months because they are currently working on March 15 petitions so they are within normal processing times. He told the IO that he knew cases from June and July were being adjudicated. She replied that every case is different, and that they are within their normal processing times so there is nothing she can do. What a load of #######! I'm so mad right now I could cry. Thanks for listening to me rant. :(

I had the exact same call with the USCIS yesterday. I wanted to put in service request (I am at 5 months +) and was told they have moved the processing date back to March 15, they are taking closer to 7 rather than 5 months, and that there is nothing they can do because they are within normal processing times...

I guess there is a bit of comfort knowing that so many of us are still waiting after 5 months at VSC. Sometimes, looking at the approvals from June and July on Visa Journey can drive me mad.

I hear you, jumperoo. Although it sucks so many of us May Filers are still waiting (especially when June and July+ Filers are being approved), I too feel a little better knowing that I'm not alone in this. Good luck to us all... I hope we all get our approvals soon.
