[Camelot13 63]

I've not heard anything since we got the extension letter. I'm anticipating July?

That seems likely... Sometime this summer, I hope! (I'm a late August filer)

Unfortunately it seems that CSC has slowed down almost to VSC levels. CSC stands at May 31 2016, VSC is at February 15 2016.

 

I think it's the people from the Great NVC Backlog of 2014 now starting to remove their conditions. That's what USCIS gets for not working on any I-130s for almost an entire year.

Yup! I totally agree! Plus, I think that (even though they haven't posted it as a workload transfer) USCIS has, in fact, transferred some of VSC's backlog to CSC... trying to get their filings caught up so that both offices are processing the same dates. VSC filers seem to be getting processed reasonably quickly right now, if you look at the monthly threads. (We'll see if that's borne out when USCIS updates their processing times next month - but I wouldn't be surprised to see CSC still in May or maybe the very beginning of June, while I bet VSC will be either at the very end of March or maybe beginning of April)

I am September Filer, I have seen that June Cases are already completed early march, so that means they already started working on July Cases. I am expecting that August filers will start hearing something in last week of April or first week on May.

If processing looks like it's gonna go beyond September 2017, what is the next step when our green card 1-year extension letter runs out?

Well, that means....Yet another backlog for citizenship applications when we apply for US citizenship this year!

Good question. Anyone know? VSC is killing me. Even if we apply for citizenship in Sept and it runs concurrently with removing conditions, what happens when we hit the 3yr date? Another extension letter in oct/nov?

You have to make an infopass and get a stamp on your passport.

Just to clarify...is this because you're divorced from the US citizen? Or some other reason?

Because I want to apply based on residency length alone.

I hope that'll be the case. On a side note, she'll be returning from a trip with the extension letter...hoping she won't be caught up at LAX. That would be rough.

Wait!    I thought you could apply for US citizenship after 3 years of living in the US?   Am I missing something?
