I hate VSC

[alohaspirit 0]

I just wanted to complain to try and cheer myself up - been waiting since the 1st of October, I got touched on the 15th and then nothing for another month. I know lots of people have waited much longer, but it's depressing to read all the comments about how great and fast and wonderful VSC is, and then to get nowhere myself.

Is there any easy way to check if they physically mailed me anything that never arrived? I got my girl to check for me and she said they hadn't, but I always feel more comfortable checking myself. She said she couldn't get a real human, is there any trick to doing so? I could ask them to check what the status is, in case something bad happened.

Don't worry, your time will come soon. Just be patient. Edited November 28, 2006 by dmaster123

I'll fill in a timeline, I know many people, especially via the other centres are having an even worse time and I don't mean to make them feel worse by complaining so quickly. I just got my hopes up after seeing 12 and 7 day approvals via VSC, I thought it was going to be wrapped up before the new year and I was excited.

Coming to the UK they have a 10 day maximum wait for a decision on a visa, I just wish they'd bring in a law like that over there so everyone one of us could get our approval. Maybe for christmas if we're good!

I think it is extremely difficult to go through this process. When you filed at VSC you had hope for a certain expectation in terms of quick approvals. Now you find youself the only one it seems waiting more than a couple ofweeks. That has to be very difficult becaue just like us at CSC tehre just doesn;t seem to be any rhyme or reason why.

Recently another poster was in the same position as you re. In VSC and never could get out yet still with in the 6 month window so couldn;t call. It eventually happened and he is at the interview stage with his fiance. You'll get there. Try hard not to compare yourcae to someone elses. Good luck

Your USCIS.GOV reply was normal, your case is processing.

PLease don't get your hopes up, as a visa before New Year is pretty much impossible. After approval you have to go thru NVC & then on to London. The waiting time is averaging around 6-12 weeks after NOA2 approval to interview in London.

If you look at the number of people immigrating to the UK compared with the number immigrating to America, I think you will find that even though we could use a law mandating the processing time for visas and immigration benefits, 10 days would be pretty unrealistic.
