I just want to know how many people are there whose waiting for NOA2s from VSC???

CSC is approving March08 as for now. devil.gif devil.gif devil.gif blink.gif

What happened to VSC and people who are waiting for this form last year???

Anybody called in VSC and find out??
When are they going to work on our Appls? crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif


Calling them is no use the same lame excuses. They did tell me that if they are too busy they share their work load with another service center. Apparently VSC didnt get that memo, as they have so many December and even few October filers waiting for NOA2. But at the same time they are approving some K-3's from April/March. Gotto love FiFo!

Hanging around the system has made some of you very callous. You can sit on your mountain tops and shake your head at the poor newbies who are just experiencing the disappointment of this system, but it hardly makes you better. Your lack of empathy is pretty clear and that reflects on you personally. The delivery of your alleged "wisdom" is that of people who are full of themselves. And if this is where you derive your feeling of power or self-worth, I feel sorry for you.

If you think that the reason RJ is posting in this thread just to make herself feel like she's better than you, or to apologize for the system, then you really don't know her very well. Or reading what she's saying. or more importantly, receiving what she is saying.

It annoyed me back then when people complained about the "injustice of it all", and it annoys me now. In the US this process takes a long time. It always has, it always will. Pitching a b!tch about it will accomplish nothing, except maybe slow the whole process down while the onslaught of emails, Congressman inquiries, etc are dealt with. If you've been waiting over a year, then yeah....you have a reason to be pissed off. Otherwise, it's just a bunch of whining.

Just a year or so ago it was Vermont that was much, much faster than California. People started posts about how "unfair" it was for people at CSC, etc etc blah blah. Now Vermont is slow apparently, and people are doing the same thing.

It happens. Deal with it.

"The only reasonable thing is to have all the vermont applicants ask a site moderator to send an email"

You're smoking crack, right? Why in the world would it be the job of a moderator on this site to send an email to anyone? And why, exactly, do you think USCIS would care? VJ is just one of many such sites, and has absolutely no "pull" at all. There are only 3 moderators on this site...I think they have quite enough to keep them busy without sending out emails on behalf of people who are snivelling about their wait time.

How about sending a copy of the letter to the New York Times, while we are at it? They wrote about the USCIS in the past and brought to light many issues they were having, and most likely still have. The public awareness may force them to assign family based petitions higher priority. Most folks don't have a clue what's going on with the family based petitions at the VSC, heck if I knew how this 'process' works, I wouldn't be here now.


I think they'll only write something up if alot of people are involved.


Hmm I don't think people are comfortable giving case numbers and real names online....the alternative is to use the same letter posted here, just fill in the personal info, print and mail it to NY Times (or wherever)....that way they will have many letters regarding the same problem, with all the necessary info - so the letters will look serious enough. NY Times will do their research first anyways before they publish anything.



I dont know about the rest, but I really am comfortable doing whatever is necessary for my wife to come here and for other families like mine to stop getting the shaft! At the same time im down with writing a letter. We can email it too, send like 100 of copies and CC's to powerful directors/senators

At any rate, I just bought my old lady a ticket to visit for the summer on the VWP. After the summer, she's gonna go back to Japan, and hopefully, her interview will happen soon thereafter.
If she gets turned around and sent home at the port of entry and this USCIS ####### goes beyond August, I'll likely cancel our application and move back to Japan for good.
I'm American, my wife is Japanese, and she's half of me. If they don't want her here, that's the same as not wanting me here. So #### 'em. I'll leave.

To hell in a handbasket this country's going. They'll turn a blind eye to anyone who sneaks in over the border and takes some high school kid's summer job. Then they'll arrest the high school kid for selling pot because he couldn't find a summer job. But then, when an American citizen goes through legitimate channels to get a law-abiding spouse from a staunch American ally in, they give the shaft. What a bunch of horsesh*t.
Yeah, call me racist for daring to bring up illegal immigration. I don't blame anyone who sneaks in--hell, I'd sneak south if was the only way to take care of my family-- but this government needs to get its act together.

That's the message you get if you don't have an RFE in the system. If you look through posts, people who have had real RFEs get a more specific message.

The message itself has nothing to do with where you are in the process and won't tell you if someone is looking at your file. Sorry.
MsZFemaleCanada2008-04-18 10:31:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresOctober / November I-130 2007 Filers
Their system was set up to expect the NOA1 date to be very close to the receipt date. Therefore it is very possible that they are looking at NOA1 dates which were January for many October people, rather than October for the RECEIPT date, which is when they physically received the file and which is indeed the date they said they would honor. So somewhere in their they have to deviate from their usual procedure of using the NOA date in order to handle these cases that were sent to the lock box from Vermont and then back to Vermont.

However, my comment about the file and date was clearly in jest, thus the jester icon.

Shrewd -- I do not think you have an RFE. Nope.

She told you that you actually had an RFE? The automated system gives that canned message whether you have an RFE or not if you aren't actually in as having an RFE (as I understand it -- need to search on that.) So unless she confirmed that it says you have one, she might have been giving you a kiss off response and not an actual response.

If I don't see something in the next 2 weeks I am going to do as I suggested above. Since we can't call to get attention, resubmitting the paperwork with the NOA1 and a letter asking if somehow they misplaced the original documents or filed them incorrectly or god knows what and that the received date was to be honored, not the NOA1 date and therefore could they please ensure that the application is put in the proper order for review, seems all we can do. If we use their processing times, we'll have to wait for several months to be able to even talk to them (legally) on the phone.

If they lost (misplaced) files, would they admit it? And would they be forthcoming or would we have to ask and then, what constitutes a legal time to ask? (And if they find a December 2006 application sitting under a file nobody has looked at for a long time, will they change the date back to December 2006?? jest.gif )

I was very patient with USCIS and accepted the 3 month wait just for them to open the darn envelope. I accepted the wait for the NOA1. I accepted the wait for online status.

But now I'm getting irritated. People who have filed recently are getting approved and there are September and October filers, myself included, still waiting w/o so much as a touch. diablo.gif
