Hello everybody. I made an account today though I've reading through various forums on VJ for a few months now.

My PD is 7th March and my case was transferred to CSC on 25th October. Everyone else seems to be getting approved within a month's time of the transfer, though in my case, it's been over a month now since the transfer and i still haven't heard from them. I'm starting to worry now. :(

Is there anybody else who has been waiting this long ever since their case tranfer to CSC? I hope my approval comes soon and everybody elses too.

Additionally, i have two more questions. One, my transfer notice did not have a priority date on it. That box was empty. Only the receipt date was mentioned. Is that the norm or should i be concerned? Two, how come cases shifted to CSC with priority dates later than that of my case are being approved before me? :/ I dont understand this.

Finally, can i just say that this forum has provided me with tremendous support. If it wasn't for all of you, i'm pretty sure id have gone into depression by now. So a big thank you to everyone. :)

I was going to change it but I guess what appears on Timeline must be the original case from. Because I got my NOA1 from Vermont. Then on November 8th, 2013, it was transferred to Texas Service Centers. Then it got approved. So ....

My signature tells better about my timeline haha :P

i think about the priority date. its normal. we got our transfer of notice too, and i noticed that the date from NOA 1 didn't match on the Transfer of notice that they sent us. Because the Date from our NOA1 was March 29. and the Notice of transfer (receipt date is April 1 ) on the priority box is empty (blank) too. about the time frame after the transfer they mentioned on the notice that we should have result within 60days after we received the transfer of notice. if we didn't receive result after 60days give them a call.

And there are several February and March cases transferred before yours which are still pending. Don't be discouraged, even if you see a couple of later transfers get approved ahead of you.

Edit: I've added you to the March filers' transfers spreadsheet.
