Hey there dpmate!!
Yeah I think our cases are pretty similar.
I sent my papers back on July 10th or so to the Vermont center ( I live in CT) but then around late sept I got a letter on the mail saying my case was transferred to the CSC.
Then a couple days after that, it said online that my case was transferred to some local uscis office ( almost same time I got the letter saying my case was transferred to CA) and then around Sep 27th I got an e mail and text alert ( and update on my online case status) saying my application was being PROCESSED ( I thought that meant I would get an answer right away but I m still waiting..
I just hope I get my approval letter on the mail soon, I m traveling abroad for Xmas and I would LOVE to have my final green card with me ( I can still leave the country and come back with that letter saying my legal status was being extended for 1 yr but I still prefer the actual green card, u know what I mean :)

Congrats to all the people getting approved , it s nice to see that some people who got transferred from Vermont to CA are getting approved now , that gives me more hopes!! :)

Good Morning bairesgirl,

I have received an additional NOA (the first actually via regular mail, the 3rd since the previous two ones were delivered via e-mail) stating:

"This is to notify you that we have transferred the above application or petition to the USCIS office at:

California Service Center (...)

We transferred this case because the record indicates that the office has jurisdiction over the case. That office will notify you of subsequent action taken on this case"

Let's see how this one plays out, since the first notification, sent via email on the 11th of October, stated a transfer to the local office, the second one, sent via email on the 17th of October, stated that the application has been transferred to a USCIS office, and the third one, dated on 11th of October and received via regular mail, stated the above verbatim. This one is rather weird, since as a Florida resident, the office dealing with my CRI89 should be VSC and not CSC.

Did you notification state some similar to mine?

Kind regards,

D

Has anyone who sent their package to the Vermont office heard anything back? since I did my biometrics I've been checking for an update and there's nothing. Trying my best to not think about it, but its kinda hard.

Updating Janine&Scott - moved to CSC from VSC a few weeks ago.

Conditions removed (yay!) effective 10/21/2013 if someone would be so kind as to update the list (it's not working for me today for some reason).

Pretty surprised at how quickly they processed us actually considering I missed my first biometrics date by accident.

See you all next year for naturalization? :)

Looking at the pattern of approvals, there obviously is no computer-controlled scheduling or any other form of strict queue or regulatory process controlling the flow of cases within a given month. USCIS is stuck in the bad old days of manually processing paper files, and approval time is a crapshoot. This is true not only of our July 2013 approvals, but also the prior month's. There are original CSC people from June 3rd, June 13th (with EARLY BIO) and June 17th who are STILL waiting!!!

Looking at the prior month's messages, the approval letters (and presumably the approval decisions as well) are coming from regional offices (the VA office for a WV applicant, the Atlanta office, etc.) rather from CSC. Unfortunately, the online system doesn't tell you whether your case has been sent to a regional office or not, so it's hard to track regional offices and their speed or lack thereof. In theory, it should be possible to assemble the territories of each regional office and infer their processing speed - if VJers start reporting the identity of their regional office along with their approval dates.

The June approvals are at 70% for CSC (including VSC transfers) and 50% for VSC. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/433684-i-751-june-2013-filers/page-37

Looking at the following month (August), they are at 4.35% approvals for CSC (including VSC transfers) and 9.09% approvals for VSC. A 8/9/13 CSC filer got approved on 9/25 (while a 6/3 applicant is STILL waiting!). http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/440263-i-751-august-2013-filers/page-30

Going back to the May filers, they are at 95% for CSC and 61% for VSC (multiple applicants from 4/30 and 5/1 are STILL waiting!). A non-RFE VSC case from 5/3 got approved on 10/1, and a non-RFE CSC case from 5/24 got approved on 10/10! http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/427555-i-751-may-2013-filers/page-54

Going back to the April filers, they are at 73% for CSC and 69% for VSC (people from 3/29 and 4/1 are STILL waiting!) All the recently reported (October) approvals have been RFEs though, so maybe it's just a case of people not reporting their approvals to VJ. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/422393-i-751-april-2013-filers/page-63

July filers - when you are approved, please state your location and the location of the regional office that sends you your approval letter along with your approval date!
