This maybe a stupid question...

This may be a stupid question but I gotta ask...

We all know that the CSC takes its sweet time to issue NOA2s. But it also appears that cases involving Chinese beneficiaries are even slower (than Europeans, Japan, Philippines and etc.). Is this just my imagination?

I don't think there are any statistics but it could be since countries that have a higher rate of visa fraud would get more scrutiny.

You should be close to getting your P-2 any day now. After that it will start to move along.

Expect P-3 3 to 8 weeks after leaving NVC

Expect P-4 3 to 8 weeks after returning P-3 and received by GUZ

Good luck

Start getting all your ducks in order. GUZ can be a real heart ache getting through......we should know!

Thanks and best wishes to you too!

I followed the guides found here and prepared the I-134, supporting documents and everything else. Just waiting for the NOA2. :-)

I think it's just your imagination. While waiting, google "post hoc, ergo propter hoc"

I don't think the Latin phrase applies to this case. Just anecdotally, I have seen some VERY long wait times on petitions with Muslim males and American women whereas Brits, Canadians, Aussies and such seemed to go pretty quickly. But, this should be an easy question to answer for anyone with a good statistical analysis program and access to all of the data on Igor's list.

The question was specific to CSC as to a cause and effect relationship between Chinese beneficiary and CSC adjudication timelines. That cause and effect relationship does not exist and further, it cannot be proved or disproved through statistical analysis. That method is one of the best examples of "post hoc, ergo propter hoc" (coincidental correllation or "b follows a, so a caused b" logical fallacy in existence. So, you bet the phrase applies.
