When i called on March 19th and asked what Vermont was working on, they told me Jan 1, 2012. So thats more than 2 months that they've supposedly been working on "JANUARY" cases :/

Back before we filed it was about 3-3.5 average for Vermont. It's definitely slowed down a lot since then and CSC is speeding up it seems.

I hope too that they get back on track soon!

There is no such thing as a slower and faster service center. One year ago, everyone wanted to end up as CSC, cause it was "the fast one." Then in the fall and early spring, filers at CSC wetre waiting 6 - 8 months while VSC filers were getting approvals in 3 months. It all depends, one is faster than the other for a while, then the other is faster.

Since the begining of 2012, the Vermont Service Center has slowed down the NAO2 approvals.

The best month for the VSC to file was in the Fall of 2011.

and at this time the CSC is a faster service center

Very true. Seems like the best time to file at one service center is when it's at its slowest. They're always bound to make up their backlogs sooner or later.
