As we can see CSC is much faster since April Filers are already approved on May while VSC is still stuck on September fillers...totally insane!!

Yeah we cannot open a Service Request since the current posted processing times are before our PD....Now the only thing we can do is to wait and watch for USCIS to update processing times date for June 2014......Keeping fingers crossed,.........

I guess lousy VSC are still stuck on 25 Sep 2013 F2A fillers cz the VB strike back with Retrogression...... ...make sense when Hardik got RFE being PD of 22 October since he was upgraded to CR1 only while mahdieh PD is 3 October 2013 and still the case wasn't touched..Hope this immigration bill will be passed this summer..Everyday i am freaking out!!

PD is July 5th, 2013. Received RFE On Dec 28th, 2013, replied back by Jan 7th, still waiting for response. Opened a request, was told to wait for 30 days....waited and then was told to wait more as file is under review....how long does it take to process a simple RFE (marriage certificate in long format).

As you can see visa bulletin has retrogress back in May 1 2013, so they wont precisely give priority for F2A unless it approach for new fiscal year!! Hope coming visa bulletin will bring some good news!

CSC is way faster... But for F2A's..its PD that matters most at the end of the day.. My PD is March 11th.. California SC.. And I was approved in less than a month... Case at NVC.. Nows the long wait to be current

Dear Franklinadamau,

At least we can process our case till NVC stage if our I-30 has bee approved and be ready to wait or PD to be current.

Particularly at Nov 25,2013 and still we are unknown about cases. :clock:

That's a challenge I've been battling with... Called NVC and got my Case number and IIN... Was told by the NVC agent that I won't be able to do anything further till my priority date is current...

But people with experience here on VJ told me to disregard what the NVC agent told me and go ahead to further my application and get case complete... But that I won't be scheduled for interview till my PD is current....

Tried to log in with my case number and IIN to fill the DS261 choice of agent form... But the website kind of bounced me out saying I'm not eligible for filling the DS261 form for now...

From what I heard such happens because NVC has not updated my case number in their system... I'll keep trying
