Awesome news about vermont

I visited Congressman Saxons office today and talked to their immigration department. They told me they just had a USCIS meeting few weeks ago, and questions popped up why I-130's werent being processed. USCIS told them that they are only processing "SELECT" I-130's for the time being until they clear I-400 backlog which they said was their #1 priority.

BTW this is directed at VERMONT SERVICE CENTER only,

I believe the "select I-130's" are the easiest ones they can find, all of our DEC/NOV/JAN get ready for long wait.

Well, that confirms why all of VSC is slow right now.

Good news Ilya

It would be wonderful to learn why different centers have different priorities. (Not that I'm wishing a slow down on CSC mind you.)

I feel lucky that I belong to Sept/October filers . This definitely explains a lot. USC's filing for spouses are almost an unknown category and definitely not present in the media or politicians' speeches. Our numbers are small comparing to I-400 filers, nobody knows about our struggle and nobody cares either. We are being swept under the rug, quietly.

Did you mean N-400? Application for Naturalization? Either way, it still sucks.

But Vermont doesn't process N400. Only recently have they announced they Vermont will process some initial N400 work. N-400 doesn't even show up their processing dates. I am not believing Saxon's office. Most if not all work for N400 is done by local offices.

I am sorry, I didn't mean to attack as an informer. I just don't think this is a credible answer from Saxon's office.

I think that it is very possible for this to be the case, when the surge of petitions and other applications that took place they changed their procedures to handle it, thus all petitions were to be sent to the lockbox for receipting and data entry. It could be that VSC has become a data entry center.

Well I am not sure what they are doing because we do see people being approved from October from VSC. But there post date sucks so I 'm not comfortable with any congressman.

Dude, all I know is I'm waiting to see you approved as well. I hope it's soon. Hang in there!

Before it was H1B, now it is N-400... what the heck, WHEN is it going to be spouse visas???

CSC keeps approving March and April filers... We are still stuck at Dec. with some applicants from Nov. still not processed...

K-3 or CR-1, I've seen just a trickle of approvals in the last 2 months.. I hope that the next two will not be worse and they can catch up with CSC and approve all at least to March.
