Im seeing lot of people getting their NOA2 from CSC in less than 5 months!! Im really happy for them but im sad for me and my fiance... i have a 2 month old and i really want him to be with us!! They got my application on 3/1/12 and was updated on 3/5/12!! i know its early to be frustrated about it but it is haaaard i have to go to mexico with my baby girl to see him and y'all know that its not that safe to go to mexico these days... Whats happening with VSC??? :(

From the time I mailed the petition to the time my wife was approved at the interview was a few days shy of 5 months. It went pretty fast! Your update will come soon enough. Mexico is safer than people think it is. Ciudad Juarez wasn't that bad.

All of us are in the same boat so hard to be in waiting time.. but that's all we can do even it's hard for me to keep positive.. I got frustrated everytime i see VSC work so slow, its been more than 5 months of waiting..for noa2 i'm not really hoping for it to come anytime soon.. i try to low my expectation and hope.. :( good luck to us..

Good luck to you!! Good luck to all of us!!

My baby knows his daddy because i go to mexico once a week or every 2 weeks!! And its not safe in there plus the trip is hard for here she doesnt like being alone in the back of my car :(

Im desperate becuse i want him to help me economically he does not get paid a lot in there is like i am a single mom taking care of bills and my baby needs!!

I hear you - I work full time and pay for full time infant daycare - no family to take the baby or share rent. Around 60% of my take home goes to just rent and daycare. It's really, really tight. And R can't do anything - you know how the wages are there, I'm just glad he doesn't need me to help him too!

It's really hard right now, but it's just a matter of time before our guys are with us where they belong. We're all doing the best thing for the long term, even if it means right now we have to be really, really strong.

I hope you're having a good week. I hope Vermont speeds up and we both get our NOA2s soon. :)

NOA1 2/5/13 for AOS from K1

Despise the fact you are just about one month away, it is sad hard to know you child hasn't met his dad. Is a bond and a feeling that it unexplainable, especially when they are still little like that they like to feel that warm of the parent. Sorry you're going through this, But it's not in our hand to get those darn NOA2. God willingly all will work out well for those who are still waiting..

Thanks for this. :)

I count my blessings that we have a video call once a week. When I ask my son "where's daddy?" he looks at the PC! It hurts a lot that he's missing so much. We're just keeping our eyes on the future. :)

sorry to say we are at 192 days since getting our noa1 with no rfe yet..and no information or contact from uscis or the vsc

Today is the 193rd day and I am still waiting, my NOA1 date is 18th Jan 2012. We are most unlucky ones that our files are at Vermont, before few months I was happy that my file is at Vermont as they were moving faster than other centers. VSC at this moment is working sooooo slow that they are not even approving petitions daily, they have a gap of couple of days (according to VJ timelines). Today there are no approvals. This wait is killing me and now i have lost hope that i will ever be able to meet my husband :( And I have also not recieved any RFE, at least if they ask for any evidencce then i will be assured that at least they are looking at my file, right now i have a feeling that my file is lying on a desk which is in a trash room.

VSC Stats

Strange that VSC is reporting they are processing more than CSC? The trend is going up but they are months behind. What?!

How does this make sense?

Just like the newsletter info where they blamed their low production on people submitting data without an RFE or coverletter. I wonder what is really going on up there.

It seems like no one knows...It's pretty scary...Many of us will be looking at 200+ days after this week. No answers, no consistency. It's really sad.

Our application NOA1 was Jan 9th. It went to VSC. We got our NOA 2 on May 25th, but our Packet 3 got misplaced by them after that and we weren't able to turn that in till July 12th. We just got our interview date for 3rd week of August. From what I read, there is a lot of delay at VSC now because they got really slammed with apps in January.

Keep praying! It will happen soon.

ohhh yeeeee am really disapointed with v s c cz the longest time was 5 months both its now steping up to 6 month y weeee v s c try to step faster guys and ladies needs to be with there love ones now ............
