September 2013 I-130 Filers

Are you trying to say something with your choice of colors for the different service centers in the spreadsheet?

That's just messing around with Blueberry Pancake and the rest of us 2/25 transferees!

Ummm no. Not at all. If people are going to be bothered with colors, we can just have a boring white spreadsheet.

And, if you're just making a joke, lol

Yeah I was joking around. The September spreadsheet looks great with the new color groupings. Thank you for managing that for all of us. Your work is totally appreciated!

I had a feeling you were, but I didn't want to assume and make it worse lol And it's no problem! I wasn't expecting this much activity on the sheet in February!!!

Yup, we're 9/18, nothing for us :-\

Yeah ... not too happy about that to be honest. This sort of thing happened to us last go around with the K1. Typical. Hope we hear something soon.

So, is it common for them to skip around the month when it comes to transferring? Boooo USCIS!

I haven't seen this happen before. So weird.

Congrats on all the transfers, guys!

I am still very upset.. Sigh

I am very upset as well...The news yesterday almost shattered water on my expectations...I have no fudging clue why they would send out files to the worst performing center? This makes no logical sense unless they are really planning on processing in the next month or so..I know that Texas is processing April/June/Aug at the same time...May be NSC will follow the same logic?

I think they will. Every month with USCIS is an unknown. I know in the past NSC has been the worst, but they've not been getting transfers for the last 2 months or so. It's anybody's guess what could happen at this stage. The fact that there aren't as many going to CSC tells me they could be getting backed up now.

I think it's best for everyone's stress level to not get too excited or too depressed about where our petition went. Our petitions got some movement finally and much quicker than those who have filed before us, so there's some progress :-)

No matter where our petitions went, we're all in this together!

I have been studying the spreadsheets all day and .. I don't have good news. Seems like NBSC (Nebraska Bullsh!t Service Center) has been just sitting on the transferred cases and not approving much..

Although USCIS shows NSC been working, it does NOT show on all of our spreadsheets.. A lot of people are way past the 60 day timeframe..

I hope we will start seeing a FLOOD of approvals from there so they can start working on Sept transfers.

Also it seems that the last transfer NSC got (not counting ours) was around Jan 3rd ish.

Almost 2 months later they still haven't caught up.

What. The. Fudge.

Like I said if they follow TSC's logic then we could see approvals much sooner than expected. Tier 2 I spoke with told me that I would see some activity within 30 days of transfer and if I don't then I can call them back. The only logical reason like I said i could see is that both TSC & CSC are maxed out at this point with July/August transfer. Does anyone have data to support this hypothesis? I know USCIS publishes this every month along with the processing times.

Morning all. I just received another email from USCIS to say my case has been transferred to my local office for processing, whatever that means...

Application Type: I130 , IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN

Your Case Status: Initial Review

On February 27, 2014, we transferred your I130, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN, to your local USCIS Office for further processing. The new office has jurisdiction over your case and will send you a decision as soon as processing is complete or you will be notified if further information or action is needed. If you move, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address.

I don't think TSC and CSC are maxed out. They have received a lot of petitions but they both have a great turnaround

Approvals:

JUNE:

TSC- 64%

CSC: 85%

NSC- 31%

JULY:

TSC- 93%

CSC- 78 %

NSC- 27%

AUGUST:

TSC- 47%

CSC- 65%

NSC- no cases received

Thank you so much! It means a lot...I feel so good to be on this forum...Feel have someone to talk to about the process and get help...It is a family to me.
