Does anyone else here think that it is not just the processing time to endure, overcoming personal bias is an issue?

wow!!!

i'm so sorry you are still waiting.

Take care,

There is nothing at all surprising about this, since 90% of March filers are still waiting. As for anyone who filed after that, well, our petitions are hopelessly buried and have no idea when we can get our lives back on track.

Yes, it is terrible.

The shutdown did not cause the backlog. DACA and Provisional Waiver programs did....

Even though I'm in a different filing category, I thought I might post in here since my case was transferred to Texas as well. A brief summary of my case: I have been on an H1-B visa since 2001. Employer filed an EB petition in 2003 but that has gone nowhere due to retrogression. I got married last year to a USC and filed my I-130 in April of this year (receipt date 4/8/13). Once the 130 is approved, it will be merged with my EB I-485 filing.

The 130 was sent to Chicago and then was sent to NBC. I received a notice in the mail yesterday that my case was being transferred to the Texas Service Center.

I will keep you posted on the progress...

Cheers!

My USCIS Journey...

 

I had an I-485 filing already submitted through an employment-based application. Post-marriage, I submitted an I-130, which after being approved was interfiled with the existing I-485.
