That is not quite right. CSC has, for all intents and purposes, stopped.

I am just curious what center is faster Vermont Service Center or California. My I-129F went to California, but I heard that Vermont is fester, is that true?

VSC is faster at the moment. Around two months ahead of CSC but that can all change. I was disappointed to be assigned VSC in january because CSC were known to be the faster ones but thats all changed.

how long are you waiting ?

Me? Not long, comparatively. 109 days so far. But it is frustrating to not see anybody move at all. All those folks from July and August still waiting for approval. It does not, so far, bode well. And it doesn't look like the recent transfer of caseload to TSC did anything to loosen up the log jam. I keep hoping that that was just because they were busy packing up boxes of paperwork.

So they open TSC for I-129f visa? As far as I know there are only CSC and VSC.

Starting today, there's a bunch of people entering the 8 month club, and each day with out action at CSC, many more will be getting over 8 months.

No, last week they sent some of the CSC workload (it was 3 other application types, K1 was not among them) to TSC. Theoretically, that should free CSC up to get back to work on our petitions. Theoretically.

Moved from K-1 case filing and progress reports to USCIS service centers forums as this is questions about the service centers.

Your I-129f was approved in 5 days from your NOA1 date.

Your interview took 67 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

AOS was approved in 2 months and 8 days without interview.

ROC was approved in 3 months and 2 days without interview.

I'm not sure why anyone would tell you three months...the national goal is 5 months when everything is functioning properly! Right now Vermont is about 6 months and California is approaching 8 months.

I am the USC/petitioner.
