Did you talk to a call center agent or a Tier 2 officer?

Vermont has had a lot of problems, the contractor wasn't paying the employees the prevailing wage and they had to file a case against them. Then 2010 they lost 100 people. The contractor seems to be complete uselessness to me.

Hi all, I have my petition also sitting at VSC; today was my 2nd call to USCIS - both the agents have been very cordial on the phone - 2 weeks ago I was told they were working on January 16 and today they stated they are into February 2, so the agent said things are moving somewhat. We are at 162 days still within normal processing times, but I wanted to check anyway. I do empathize on the waiting aspect, but it is what needs to be done for now. My fiance had said last week he hoped to be here by Christmas so we are keeping that in mind (I originally thought, see you in September) but that doesn't seem feasible. I have hesitated returning to visit him during this process in case any info was needed, etc. He also said it is so painful & difficult to say goodbye again. Isn't that the truth! For now, just working, waiting, hoping - we should be on the downside now. I wish everyone a successful journey and extreme patience; it is worth it.

Yes it is very painful and difficult to say goodbye again,thats what my husband told me too.ours is in vsc,and still waiting.we are at 100 days.
