Has anyone been approved today? Did CSC stop again. :crying:

It's only 11:30 in the morning here? And at least for the past week or two, nearly EVERY approval seems to come after 4:00 pm -- I leave for work every day at that time, and usually there are 1-2 scattered approvals, but by the time I get home at midnight there are 15. So hold on, they'll come in a few hours ... I hope!

Thanks! I usually check VJ when I wake up but I had not noticed the times. I hope tons of approvals come in after 4pm! :)

California is on the West Coast. They likely don't even start working until the folks at VSC are getting ready for lunch. Plus, a lot of the people whose applications are at CSC are further West, and may not be able to check their status until they are home from work. Then figure in that there will be people who actually are so excited to get the news, they want to share it with friends and family, and there are plenty of reasons for the delay in reporting Here on VJ. Usually look at Igor's list each day and you should see how many have been approved the day before. That is a better judge. Of course when they approve more than 15 in any given day, you have to actually look a little deeper to get a good count because the list only propagates the last 15 approvals. Yesterday there were 23 reported approvals from CSC. Thinking about that makes me smile. That's the highest number I've seen since I started watching CSC once I applied

Yes, I have also seen RFE's.

Perhaps they are only processing the applications that are incomplete and are passing over the perfect applications, or heavily front loaded ones.

Well, I've been sporadically checking Igor's list, and as 4pm in California passed (about 20 minutes ago) we now have 2 CSC approvals where at 3:30 there were none, one from July and one from August. Will be interesting to watch and see how many get listed as the night moves on

You have to give people a chance to get home from work and fire up their computers lol

Yeah lol, it went from 0 approval to 6 approvals now... I find it amazing to watch the list. After so many days of being depressed about CSC's processing speed, I am now finally smiling everyday watching the approvals on Igor's list. Congrats to all the members who receive their NOA2 :)

I think CSC might be sending the approvals out in batches, as I checked my batch of reference numbers at 3:30 and there was no activity. At 4PM I got an email from USCIS, checked online right away, and saw that everyone in the batch was approved :)

(Finally! Good luck to all still waiting!)
