Oh yeah.. blaming TSC is always acceptable. I think it works in every situation. Miss your fiance? Blame TSC. Ate a half gallon of icecream in one sitting? Blame TSC. Got a flat tire? Blame TSC. See.. they all work.

That is exactly all they are good for and even then they are rubbish because they're 6 weeks outdated.

Exactly! LOL

Haha! True words :-D

On Thursday I will go to the chocolate factory to eat a ton of chocolate to make myself feel better - I have done it before and this time I will blame the result on TSC too. After all I wouldnt go if I wasnt still here. Anybody want to come? Or I can eat your share of chocolate on top of mine.

I am glad they moved the processing date as much as they did - we all know it is way outdated, but at least it feels like somthing is moving. I think it was a March (or April) date back when we filed.

Yesterday, I went straight home from work, laid down, and slept for 12 hours straight. When Jonathan asked me what was wrong this morning I told him it was TSC's fault.

Thanks, TSC!

I know some of you have received NOA2, but for those who haven't: A light at the end of the horrible TSC tunnel perhaps?

I've started tracking all TSC 129F petitions electronically and updating them in real-time to provide a more comprehensive and accurate picture of TSC processing times: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/548621-finally-real-time-data-on-tsc-129f-receipt-numbers-src/.

Please let me know if you want to get the updates.
