Hi Anish, Just read your profile and seems like you are looking into getting a B2 visa for your wife. Have you done this for India? If so, let me know cause i might be interested in knowing as well.

We retained a lawyer to send my I-130 packet in on 20 Sept. Have heard nothing back since!!!!

seems like the situation might get better ... since the new instrection asked that you file in Chicago Lockbox instead of CSC or VSC .... now i would assume CSC will process everything they have to make room/resources ...

August 20

I'm trying to look into possible immigration myself to a non hostile towards families nation. I'm ok with waiting 2 years but 3 to 5 years is f'in impossibly retarded. My county is FAILING me. Thanks for nothing so far. What course of action should one take if you wait 6 months and do not even get in the system? YOu don't know if you packet has been flushed down the fn toilet or not. I do have a "postal service" reciept.

I'd be shocked if there's anynews at all for the rest of 2007... remember, those lazy workers that drag ####### have 208 holiday parties to go to this month.

I only have one comment, I can't believe that the US government makes it easier for a fiancee to enter the United States then a wife.

I wonder if those sent to Chicago will wind up ahead of the pile still rotting in Vermont?

[AandLKC 1]

you know i was thinking about that .... i am assuming the application in CSC/VSC is still in a bin somewhere not entered into the system ... overnighting a duplicate application to chicago lockbox might be faster that waiting for CSC of NVC

what do u guys think

Hun,

hang in there we are in the same boat, I would not suggest that but oh hell who knows anymore - but the applications going to Chicago will still be routed to the appropriate office aka VSC or CSC or did i read that memo wrong. No here it is....

Petitions filed with the Chicago Lockbox will be routed to, and adjudicated at, the appropriate USCIS Service Center. This routing will be based on the petitioner’s place of residence in the United States

Well I believe that the only reason USCIS is having ALL forms go to the Chicago lockbox is because CSC and VSC can no longer house applications that are coming thru their doors and just sitting in a pile. What I am assumming is that the current mailroom at CSC and VSC is overwhelmed and flooded with apps that just keep coming in and piling up. This probably makes it much difficult to get the receipting in a timely fashion when the mailroom is constantly overworked. So they implemented the Chicago Lockbox(CLB) so that apps can stop coming into their mailroom before they are ready to process them.

I think this is a good move. It may help in the organinzation process plus allieve the stress of the workers there so they dont just up and quit from all of the frustration. I am assuming CLB will start housing all applications until said service center is ready to receive them. Maybe CLB will start issuing out NOA1's too so that people can at least know that their application was received safely. I don't think this means CLB apps will get processed faster than the apps at CSC or VSC, but they could receive an NOA1 before others. There apps are still just sitting in a que waiting to get shipped off to the designated service center. I think this process is just for organizational and catch-up purposes. They obviously have workers at CLB who will be alleviating the work load from the service center workers, so maybe the service center workers can then start focusing on actually processing the apps.

Yes on trying to help the backlog and proces what is outstanding but the receipts will still come from appropritae area of filing aka CSC or VSC as per memo.

And i also agree good move, l think it may help.... ok need another paddle for our canoe lol

I would think all applications will be handled based on priority dates they were sent. That only seems to be fair and USCIS will work on cases piling up in Vermont/CS offices from July/August instead of processing new ones coming to Chicago even it means sending NOA1 notices. Atleast i hope thats what will happen..
