I got touched yesterday and today . SOmeone at least knows I am there

Good Luck with your approval. Seems like we are in the same boat. I called Mar 13 and was told it was moving - but no touch. Then I called April 7 and was told it was still sitting in the file room and shouldn't be. Got touched that day and the next day. Called again April 14 and was told it was out waiting for Security Approval with FBI. Anybody know anything about that? I have heard there was a backlog at the FBI. Damn where to find the patience when they seem to have passed you by! Moved from 43 to 44 on Igor's list in the last week. Very encouraging - urrrrghhhh!

lol yup is a good thing and with ur time line who knows u might get ur noa2 soon at least i hope for u that is what it means

mine was touched too many times 3 weeks ago and until now its still pending.

All I can say do is to make a >>BIG SIGH!! (oh that makes me feel better :dance:

Yuppers told the boy the other day to expect us def getting over the 100 day mark as told him about the couples on here that have sadly reached the 200 day mark :( SIGH sooooo not fair! I get so angry with the CSC vs. VSC thing, it is soooo true that they should split the load up a bit more so it truly goes in chronological order; but guess that would be too easy of a system aye? "Hey Vermont you do do December filers throughout while us here at CSC get caught up on all the older ones that way we can start out 2008 afresh!"

SIGH

Has anybody seen any scientific studies done on the hibernation habits of CSC Adjudication Officers? Seems they seem to spend most of their life in a Koala like eucalyptus induced trance but enter serious hibernation typical of the larger bears during late March and early April. Do they hibernate in jello or foam baths? Be good to get some money allocated out of the new high fees for hibernation research, could help with overall planning. Maybe if we sent them extra special eucalyptus leaves we could bypass the large bear hibernation habits.........

I do not know what to say about CSC anymore because they are sucks and I just stop checking case status now till at the end of this month because I am sick of tired seeing the same thing all time and I wanna throw my laptop aout my window sometimes ...there is no huge diffrence applications filers between VSC but even the february filers at VSC got their aproval which is not fair at all ..move some cases from CSC to VSC and at least cacth up litle bit but I do not think that they would ever do that ..

anyways goodluck

well we have bee checking Igor's' s list . we went to 96 than back to 100. we keep bouncing a bit because of not updated time lines. without Igor's list we would not know anything. i have called the USCIS several times and never received a valid answer. i guess thats why it is called the black hole. and i have contacted my congressman's office and asked why the big difference between the VSC and CSC processing times. they were told by the VSC they were working on Sept 17 app.so i faxed the congressman's office several of the time lines i have found here. hopefully that might peak his interest. and i just got off the phone with the USCIS and was told my file is still sitting i a box, how comforting to know it is in a box not behind a radiator.

In the annals of recorded history (at least as it is recorded in Igor's list and stats) the CSC has never performed more poorly for such a long time. We're going into our third week of abysmal approval levels and I'm getting pissed. They had a two week dip in productivity last year around this time, but not 3 weeks. I hate moving backwards on Igor's list for two weeks in a row. :angry:

And So It Begins......

makes me scared that we're filing in May! :wacko:

That would put us in Novemberish time line for approval i think (best guess!)...but that actually works along side our plans....

Surely there's something we can do to bring this to someone's attention?

I think it has something to do with people not getting emails anymore but only paper notices of their approvals, which are usually received about 2 weeks after their approvals.. and if u look at Igor's list, there are a few new approvals again, all updated recently but actually approved 2 weeks ago or more... I really think it 'looks' like it slowed down coz of them failing with electronic update notices.

Well the update works for touches as our case was touched 1 hour after my SO called
