The status length dates mean nothing and are not accurate, see how many are over just in VJ. Maybe a sign of things to come?

In Arizona its hot hot hot.

Well as I see it...the status dates may be inaccurate BUT they DO mean something. They mean that if you are OVER 5 months waiting, you can ask for a service request, instead of being told to wait another 2 months before even calling. So it is not for nothing. I'm not at that point yet but I am glad for those who can now at least ask what's going on...

YAY! :dance:

I couldn't agree with your sentiment more! Sheesh, it seems there hasn't been much good news lately and so I'd rather continue with a Pollyanna attitude rather than a negative one.

...just my two pesos.

Cheers

Agreed there...any change in info that the4 uscis gives is better than having something stuck at 5.6 months and stating that they are working on March 15th filers

Like said above the change on the USCIS website gives hope if nothing else. Shows that some type of progress is made!!!! Beats nothing for sure!!!!

'Quilla, my friend,... it don't show nottin, 'cept that somebody was messin with the site. it may have 'implications', but that's about it. Look here, on VJ. There are people who get 'approval' in less than 60 days. Few, but it happens. Then, there are people who still waitin for approval over 160 days out. Few? Maybe more than a few. Cause there are some real morons here on VJ. Sometimes..... I'm one of 'em. jaja
