I sometimes think... perhaps some VJ members are not updating their timelines... and that is why we see little movement.. ya think?

Yes, I think you should call. What I mean is that some people dont update their timelines... so we have no idea. Perhaps i am just wishfully thinking I am not really # 25.

seesh. it is such a gamble - who you get on the phone at VSC. today i got one of the

"procedure" ladies giving me the run around and nonsense, and just a week ago

i got the "let me check on that for you, just a sec" lady. bah!

i should probably keep my trap shut, but i end up calmly explaining how flawed the

procedure is and responding to every useless option she tries to give me with an

explanation of how they are completely useless. bah! she tried to tell me to write

a letter, and i told her i never revieved a hard copy of my NOA1 and had serious

doubts that would ever recieve any kind of response to a letter.

on the other hand, maybe i SHOULD borrow wiombeen's MO, he seemed to get

approval pretty quick after that letter went out

but DESPITE this, i feel optomistic about it all too:) the helpful last week said my case

was out for security checks after an initial review. that's gotta mean it's moving along, eh?

deep breaths and focus...come on good news for all!

hey thanks, sparrow. it's now day 105...seems like it can't really go on much

longer, right? it's really uncomfortable having *waiting* being such

a huge part of every day.

kinda feeling helpless. but also working hard to keep the ultimate

goal in mind.

hope you all are feeling strong . i think i will compose a letter. im not

sure if i will send it or exactly what i will say yet, but i think i will

feel better...and right now anything that makes me feel not os helplessr

is worth a try

Here are some more Visa Journey VSC statistics that might help spot trends.

Remember that these statistics only reflect Visa Journey Members and the sample size may be too small to be statistically relevant.

Any statisticians in the house who could provide some input?

This table lays out well in my Internet Explorer. Hopefully it will do the same in your browser. If not, please let me know.

VISA JOURNEY VSC SUMMARY STATS

As of 7/31/07

K1 
	  Applications			 NOA2's		  Avg Days NOA1 to NOA2 
Jan			24				   23					   18 
Feb			37				   35					   23 
Mar			44				   41					   31 
Apr			35				   21					   49 
May			35					5					   31 
Jun			30					0					   NA 
Jul			31					0					   NA

K3 
	  Applications			 NOA2's		  Avg Days NOA1 to NOA2 
Jan			 8					8					   72 
Feb			13				   10					   58

Apr			09					1					   93 
May			 1					0					   NA 
Jun			10					0					   NA 
Jul			 0					0					   NA

Conclusions:

• K1 applications are processed much faster than K3's.
  
• So far there is no evidence of a rush of applications from Visa Journey members to beat the fee increase.
  
• Processing times have been increasing significantly since January, 2007. K3 applications submitted in February are the only exception to this.
  
• So far May's processing times are shorter than April's, but it may be too soon to make any conclusions about May.

I sometimes think... perhaps some VJ members are not updating their timelines... and that is why we see little movement.. ya think?

Mine hasn't been touched since 10 June.... Would love to update.....

That is it I am calling today!

Yes, I think you should call. What I mean is that some people dont update their timelines... so we have no idea. Perhaps i am just wishfully thinking I am not really # 25.

And just when all hope is down I got my approval on email from CRIS for my I-130 today!!!!!!!

I am still calling for the I-129 though

:dance:
