Here are the new VSC summary stats that reflect approvals dated through November 4th. To compare to the previous report, click here.

The projected number of processing days is based upon the number of open petitions divided by number of petitions approved per day for the various periods. As the approval rate changes, the projected processing time will change also. Perhaps dramatically. Please do not take the projections too seriously. However, projections may be useful in determining if your plans are realistic given the current rate of approvals.

This table lays out very well in my Internet Explorer. If it looks strange in your browser please let me know. Suggestions as to how to make the Summary Stat Report better are welcome.

THis is crazy, I am reading other post and California is kicking Vermont's butt with regards to June approvals! How can that be? Is Vermont so understaffed? Can someone attempt to help me (very frustrated to say the least) understand what the H_LL is up with that?
