No, because se w aren’t out of range of processing times listed on the USCIS website. It currently has up to like 2 years within the range of processing. Just gotta wait

Right, so the USCIS website says don’t contact them unless you filed before June 20, 2016. Just gotta wait it out. It’s a long ride.

Houston is out of control
I have yet to find anyone on VJ that filed after May 2017 have an interview. It's like they shut down operations

There are also like no infopass appts ever.

Plus, Houston is only open 4x a week for 7 hours each day (7:15-3pm)
I mean no wonder the backlog is crazy. U would think they would at least extend some hours/hire more staff and get the ball rolling

I went to an infopass 1 month ago. The office told us Houston is working on Jan 2017 case right now.

June 2017 filer here, and still nothing. Houston is working on Jan 2016 cases according to an infopass appt.

I mean this is clearly incorrect because I've seen some Feb 2017 approved for a while since end of Dec 2017 like @Ben&Zian and a few others that I can't remember off the top of my head right now.
Certainly something happened in like April/May 2017 cuz all those cases and the future cases seem "stuck" somehow. 

I mean it's been almost a year since Feb 2017 got approved
And June 2017 folks are still waiting. Something is horribly wrong somewhere

Yea something must be going on because we were late February 2017 filers and approved without interview December 2017.

Awesome. January 2017 sounds much better. Are they in pace to move 1 month at a time?
