I have a question and lets see if someone has an idea. On my NOA 1 it says that my application is at VSC but I live in Florida and I sent it to TSC. Well my question is that I just checked on the timelines here on this site and there are some people that have been getting NOA 2's from TSC. Is that from the people just not changing where their process is taking place or is TSC still adjudicating applications?

I think its just that they havent changed their timelines.

yes, I'd agree with that; all reports say Texas hasn't been adjudicating K petitions for more than a year...

The Very Secret Diary of Legolas Son of Weenus - by Cassandra Claire

Day One: Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into volcano. Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.

Day Six: Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very afraid I am developing a tangle.

Orcs so silly.

Still the prettiest.

Day 35: Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary. Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir definitely not prettier than me. Cannot understand it. Am feeling a pout coming on.

Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each other, rather cute really.

Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height, so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet most off-putting. Foresee dark times ahead, very dark times.

no, not that weird... from everything I've read, petitions were still sent to and accepted at both Nebraska and Texas up until the changes you mention, but they were then just forwarded on to Vermont or California, as now... the changes at the end of July just formalised that

AFAIK ;)

Hello everyone, I have a bit of breaking news to share with you all.

I sent this email to CIS Ombudsman maybe a day or three ago:

Great effort in contacting the ombudsman.

I dispute the USCIS's claim that September petitions are being approved because they are especially well documented. That is just baloney. What could they have possibly submitted that allowed them be processed before May, June, July and August petitions? I can see that a petition without any complications would be processed before a more complicated petition submitted at the same time, but there is no way in the world that they should be even looking at non expedited September petitions yet.

When I wrote to the Ombudsman today, I pointed out that while there are different variables and nuances which may cause some petitions to be approved before others, I am highly skeptical that the 100s of petitons filed prior to Sept. 2007 are all of a more complex nature and less well documented than the few that have been approved after that time.

Unless they physically stapled their bodies to their applications I can't imagine these September petitions being anymore well documented then ours.

LOL No kidding!!! I studied for over a year in preparing to file! It was well organized and well documented!! I dare an adjudicator to dust it off and take a look - its all there!!!

We all need to keep pounding the ombudsman with this info and have our concerns addressed. Hopefully we can make a difference!

Yeah, that's BS. They shouldn't even be touching those yet as many of ours haven't been touched yet, so how would they know how swell they are versus the other petitions?

My theory is they decided they had all they could handle with the may, june , july, august piles and started to split off the newer petitions to another work group to get started on. Not saying it's fair ...

just a reminder; remember what the guy that used to an adjudicator said; many of these folks work from home and may only come to the office once or twice a week; you petition could be approved but be at home with an adjudicator; when entered into the system it will show as approved.

another point, I think some of the fast approvals were because these folks came back with spotless criminal records, no previous marriages, etc and might have been easier to approve than some of us with divorces, previous K1 applications, previous criminal records-no matter how minor, etc

Mar 06 - Val came to stay with me in Greece where I was living.

Highly dubious that hundreds of petitions filed prior to those approved in Sept. & Oct. fall into this category. I know plenty of people who had prior marriages., etc. that were approved through VSC in under a month back when VSC was an efficient processing center.
