APRIL Filers!!

Again I want to reiterate, I HATE THOSE MF"N SPAM EMAILS WITH THE WORD APPROVAL IN THEM.

I have my yahoo messenger always on so when I get an email it pops up a little message tab on the lower right of my screen. Like 10 times now I have received an email that says APPROVAL in title and it always makes my heart skip.

Especially the ones that are from a credit card company, so they say "YOUR VISA HAS BEEN APPROVED" GAH

HAHAHA

:angry: :angry:

I would seriously not even open them. As soon as you see a title a mail from CRIS saying "Case status Information" thats what your looking out for.

Chapter 37 - The case of the phantom touches.

Ok, so I Called CSC again today and spoke with a amazingly kind woman. I told her I have had two touches one Mon and another on Tuesday but had not heard anything since. She said "There has been no action taken on your case yet."

Refusing to let this all so familiar dissapointment slow me down I asked, "Hmmmm, these touches are kind screwy things, are they not?" She laughed.

I continued, "But regardless, my petition has been touched, so I am assuming it has been given to a case worker?"

she said "Let me check." I can hear a choir of keys clicking and clacking in my brain as my future happiness is accessed via her keyboard. Then she says these sweet sweet words "Yes, It was assigned yesterday."

I the calmly asked "So, what is it now 10 cases per bucket."

She laughs again and asks, "Have you worked here before? You seem to know an a lot about how things work around here." And followed that each officer receives about three buckets with about ten petitions to each bucket."

I said "Nope, I have not worked there, Just been waiting about 104 days now. Thats a lot of time to learn how things work. haha"

So, Rambaldi my friend, I have been assigned to a case worker. Perhaps you have been too. How long now until I can become approved? It all depends on what bucket I am in i guess. So we wait longer, but at least we know some of the grease from someones Kentucky Fried Chicken/Burger king has dripped onto the gears over there.

Join us next week for chapter 38 - Attack of the NOA2 announcements.

Yeha I know haha. I just saying i hate those other spams. Cause they make my heart flutter for a brief second no matter what haha. I am so jacked up to see that "CRIS" that anything saying approval on it makes me briefly explode hahah

Clever post, I like the SW titles. If it takes much longer I have a feeling that Chapter 39 will be Revenge of the Petitioners...

Congrats on getting assigned, you should be on your way to NVC soon!

Thank you for the compliment. And OMG, I know the compulsion. If I could have a nickel for every time I hit refresh on this forum and my USCIS portfolio page....well lets just say I would have the worlds largest collection of nickels.

It is usually slow at my work in the morning so I am glued to my laptop all morning. SAAADDD I KNNOOOWWWW, But it's what we do. I wonder If I can sue USICS for giving me eye cancer or Carpal Tunnel syndrome. Any seedy lawyers in the house?

Glad someone caught that haha

I'm glad to hear you are in a bucket. I hope I'm in a bucket too? Wonder if they put CSC/TSC/NSC together or if they are processed by different adjudicators in different parts of the CSC building?

This thread is my lifeline, now that I can't compulsively check my time line anymore since the "approval" date has already passed. =( Can't help but check in hopes that a familiar poster will receive an approval.

My fiance and I were discussing calling sometime next week if there is no news today. Not sure that I care to endure those false touches that would result though. For the record, searching "RFE trick" caused a whole lot of frustration for me last night and I can understand why the question is asked on a near daily basis on VJ. Not so easy to actually find a clear, step-by-step explanation of it, even though it is referred to often enough. If anyone has a link and can post it without a "read the guides" emoticon, I'd be a happy camper.

Also, this is a long shot, but what are the chances that petitions that weren't processed before some arbitrary cut off at CSC will be sent to VSC, if that is where they would be handled under the new rules? Anyone heard mention of that sort of thing? Keep on dreading that after the petition went from TSC to CSC that they will turn around and ship it to VSC, since petitioners from NC will now be processed there instead!

This long wait allows too much time to contemplate such things.

Really hoping to see a burst of approvals before they close up shop for the week. *sigh*

:lol: Though wioombeen, any particular reason as to why it's Chapter 37?? Shouldn't it be47? *coughaliascough*

Anyhoooooooo, glad to hear that your case has been assigned!! Finally man!! I'm hoping that ours get assigned too....guessing we'll know next week huh? Thanks for typing out that long post for the rest of us, you're amazing...hehehe

Eka, I know how you feel, I hope you get assigned already too. Well, in my opinion, I think they just put all the CSC/TSC/NSC petitions together, since once they arrive at the CSC, they become part of the big CSC family....

Oh well, CSC is now done working for this week now, so let's all hope that they approve all of us next week. It really has been a long wait for April filers....
