hello everyone I have a NOA1 date of 01/23/2012 and I am nearing my 5 month mark which is on Saturday to be exact. Does anyone have any update on anything that is going on at VSC? If they are even doing anything at all. I checked my case online and I see that it was "touched"(whatever that really means)in early February but thats it. I called last week and was told they were processing January 23rd applications which gave me some hope but I am just beyond fustrated by this point. I even gave up on calling them because I feel like they arent even doing anything over there and I was just getting nowhere with them. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH this is driving me INSANE

dont listen to USCIS theyve been saying that VSC on Jan 23 since May.. VSC is so slow, its painful. I would suggest that come Monday, call them and request for a Service Request to be done because you will be out of the 5 month window.

I called today and the line was they were processing Jan 1st.

I dont even think they know what they are processing either. I have no idea how February filers have gotten approved but yet they are hundreds and hundreds from January that havent heard anything

that was my initial thought as well...give them until Monday and see what the service request gets me if anything at all. Next step after that is getting my congressman involved

These are government workers who pile of work never decreases no matter how hard they work, it is painfully slow for VJ members waiting for results. Share our frustrations here, support each other and maybe have a cool drink or two. As I said before this process is painfully slow and the honest participants who try to do it correctly are greatly affected by the ones who try to beat the system or involved in fraud. They appear to handle them as they come in the system, their is no triage involved to find the no brainers and move them along. All we have is the system to check on the progress, and if delayed substantially our congressman, or the USCIS Ombudsman. Actions by public officials who move illegals ahead of honest filers also delays our progress, staff who would have worked on your file now have been ordred to work on something else, thus a delay in the legal process which we all strive to follow.

In Arizona its hot hot hot.

when you say 5 months is that from NOA1 online date or touched date

Typically you gauge the 5 months by the date listed when you input the receipt number into USCIS website. For example, although my NOA1 date is 1/20. My received date is 1/18. I use the received date to calculate the 5 months.
