Just out of interrest, who all have filed to VSC in February and later on been transferred to CSC? Since we all may be approved around the same time...

There's me and Geist (as almost the only couple on the forum who have separate messaging accounts :D ). Then there's also vylex, dillydally and virt. Is that all? Or did i miss someone?

I'm still waiting since the last touch on 5/23. MegDan recently got approved although she started at CSC. Her NOA1 was at 2/13 think. Her last touch before the good news email was at 5/24. If that's the case and our NOA1 dates are honored, we should be getting our files looked at this month (FINGERS CROSSED TO THE POINT I CAN'T SEPARATE THEM).

My fingers are crossed tightly for you too! Actually, correction on my last touch, it was just like yours, 5/23, not 5/24. So that's a good thing, right? Good luck to you and I hope you get that approval SOON! :thumbs:

Based on what the bulletin mentioned about CSC-VSC getting swamped with H1B processing and having to put everything else on the burner - my understanding is that the service centers are striving to approve ( be compliant) by June 15th all those petitions that would have gottens NOA2s had they not been delayed due to the H1B processing .

We were approved for the I-130 on 3 May. However, as of 3 Jun I still had not received the NOA2 in the mail. I called and they told me there is a backlog of work for the machine that folds the notices for mailing. The backlog was due to the recent deadline for all the H1B visas. At any rate, I have not yet received either the NOA2 or any notice that the file has been sent to the NVC. Sorry to be pessimistic, but wanted to describe the situation for you.

Good luck to all!

Doug

YAAAAAY!!!! WE GOT APPROVED! I knew it would happen during your visit ;)

Whew. Now on to the NVC. I never thought this would happen...really. It seems so unreal.

Pjjoy, since you just got touched today, I want to bet that it might have been an approval :) Maybe you'll get a good email tomorrow like we did today after a touch yesterday :)
