And cheers to approvals!

GOOD VIBES ! ! ! ! ! !

So I am a bit concerned, on Nov 15, I received an emailed about my transfer. The paper transfer notice said i was transferred TSC...but I used the automated phone system to check the status and it says: Nov 18, USCIS transferred my app to office in lee summit MO. Which notice to I trust? This is making me worried since other people which were transferred after me are getting approvals at TSC before me. Should I schedule an infopass?

that's strange. Isn't that where your file originally was? It seems this whole immigration process is full of gliches and error messages.

Call a tier 2 and maybe you'll get lucky or contact a senator's office and explain to them what happened. Ask them to make an inquiry. That is how I found out I was transferred to TSC only 2 days after I got the email notice. I actually made the inquiry before I left to Costa Rica. I htought they forgot about me. Then I received the transfer notices and then on Black Friday I received an email from the Senator's office with my inquiry response

Good morning to all and congratulations to those approvals over the weekend...I am sitting here at the JFK airport awaiting my flight to go spend the holidays with my husband in DR...I am very happy and excited to finally being with my hubby, but at the same time I feel so disappointed and sad because I prayed so hard for a miracle of getting my approval by today...it would have been the greatest surprise for my husband.

well happy holidays to all and may you all have a very happy new year. I will continue to pray for that miracle that all April files get approved before the new year. :)

By the statistic data, it seems that Nebraska (I was transferred there) is the worse in approvals:
