Yeah, it seems VSC transferred the rest of January and also February to TSC. It took about 2.5 weeks for TSC to start approving the first batch of transfers, but now they're moving at a pretty good pace. Hopefully they can get to all the transfers pretty quickly.

ive noticed that right after people got transferred they either get approved within 2 weeks, and sometimes a few days after TSC has gotten the petitions..

Notice that the text has changed slightly within hours of the transfer notice. Now says "your local uscis office for further processing". Did this happen with the last batch? Could it actually mean the local office instead of tsc, with a whole new training process and new set of variables for every case?

that was the case for a lot of people but there are still some people (like me sad.png ) who was transferred at the end of May and still not approved...there are about 15 within 100 numbers before mine and a couple after that are in the same boat as me - transferred late may and nothing. hopefully this will be our week smile.png

Are the RFE's done by when they are received too, because I seem to notice only early June RFE's (and RFE'S before then) are getting approved. We sent our off the 18th of this month, and someone told me at times it only takes a few days. I know it can take up to 60, and other say it took them 30 or more---but, do some people actually get their approval within the 10 days ?

Hey Lemon, I'm glad to see you're moving along in the process. If you look at my timeline, you'll see I also got an RFE. I got mine in the mail on June 10th and sent it back Express June 11th. They received it on June 12th and I got my approval on June 20th (although I am still waiting on the hard copy, but expect to see that this week).

From what I saw when I was checking other RFE's around the same time as mine was the fastest to go from received to approval was 6 days and then a lot of others were under the two week mark, with some of the longer ones pushing 3 weeks. I only saw one that took a month and didn't see any get denied.

The good thing about RFE's is they usually ask for what they need to get you approved. If you supply that and it's acceptable, you should be on track for approval. If they were going to deny the petition even with the extra evidence, they wouldn't ask for the extra evidence, so as long as you sent exactly what they were asking for, be confident that you should have your approval within a week or two most likely

Best of luck to you. Hope it's quick
