CSC still stating June 16 date for i130

[djromi 0]

Called USCIS for the first time today and just asked them what cases they are currently working on. They stated that they are still processing June 16. I guess the data they are looking at is obsolete. Got NOA1 on Aug 19. With this being the case for a lot of filers, i wonder if i here anything by end of January.

I was JUST trying to get a hold of an actually human being to figure the dates, so what number did you call (for future) and if it was the USCIS 800 number how do you get ahold of someone. also is June 16 for all visas or just I-130?! I read here like two weeks ago that they were processing June 16, but clearly no progression has been made, that's a little discouraging.

I dialed the normal number 1-800-375-5283. I put in status number and chose i think option 3 to make changes or something. Otherwise the automated system just keeps repeating. You have to chose the option to make a change/have question/something similar. I asked them to get me dates for i130.

My NOA1 was July 25th so I called yesterday and the woman wouldn't answer a direct question she just told me they are very behind on approvals and that I will receive some notifacation in 39 days. So that will make it 6 1/2 months just for approval. Who knows how long till interview after that. I've been told at embassy 3-4 weeks but looking on here at others timeline its 3 to 6 more months. I'm ready to loose it at this point.

This is very frustrating.

This has to be the USCIS CSC SLOWEST pace in a long time.

It's now been a week since a VJ user reported receiving an NOA2 for an I-130 application. I expected there to be a slowdown this week with a lot of people out on vacation, but not this slow. I'm well aware that VJ users only represent some of the applications that are pending, but it still is a good way to track actual processing times. 154 days have now passed since my NOA1. Once I hit 160 days I will contact my Congressman's office for the second time to see if they can be of any help. At this point I just hope that when I do finally hear from the USCIS that it is an NOA2 and not an RFE.

While I realize this is what they're telling people, and have been for well over two months now, it is mathematically impossible that they could be working on a single day or even week's worth of petitions for so long. This must be a batch date, milestone date or something along those lines. Such that all petitions still in normal processing with NOA1 dates prior to or equal to 15June have been completed. Make sense?

Of course, that doesn't help any of us at all and in fact hurts us greatly since they seem to be generally insisting that they won't open a service request until that date is past our NOA1 dates. In other words, they won't do a damned thing.

Day 150 is tomorrow for me. Time to start calling daily or over other day...

Day 155 will be next week.. time to start calling Representatives and Senators..

Sad thing is that after this we'll have to fight our way through NVC... and then hope that the VO isn't in a bad mood on interview day...

Question: When you hit the 150 days mark, What are you going to say when you call them? CSC?

Er... that's it? How long did it take for them to come back with such an insightful and deep answer?
