LOL.. made me smile.. nice to see someone looking at this in a good way! I have been trying to keep smiling, but, as the days turned to weeks, weeks into months.. I just kind of stopped watching the timeline to keep myself sane! I knew I was in for a long wait.. but wow! lol

keep staying positive!! some of us need reminding from time to time!

Unfortunately, for this group of filers, it seems to be pretty "normal." (Nothing is normal about that kind of a wait!)

It seems like what has happenned is that everybody was backed up like this, and all the offices were slowly slogging through the backlog. NSC got a ton of the early transfers, and maybe was not as experienced in processing this kind of files (it seems as though they weren't processing them at all before) and got REALLY bogged down.

Then early this year, it looks like they changed the gameplan. NSC and TSC (who had the majority of the remainder of the backlog) kept working on the older files, at their glacial pace, and CSC started getting new petitions and processing them right away.

So what we have now is one office working ahead (and I'm sure that has nothing to do with improving their average times) and the other two offices working to catch up. But they're still pretty slow. Picking up speed, but still slow.

It has caught Apr/May/June filers in the middle, still waiting while July and Aug filers are being approved. It really sucks, and as much as I personally (October filer) will probably get some advantage from this (heck, they might actually be caught up by the time they get to me) - I can't imagine how frustrating it is for the early filers still languishing away in NSC/TSC with no relief in sight.

Big virtual hugs to all of you and hopes for speedy approvals and flying through NVC and Embassy stages!!!

Well Said .... ! same feelings same thinking .. mine is june 3rd 2013 NSBC ...... one day I will do visit NSC

This is not entirely accurate. I'll see if I can find the timeline explanation someone gave before about what has happened. Sorry, it's nearly 4am and I'm pretty incoherent atm.

Ah, now my case was sent to Nebraska.

I can just pray for a smooth journey.

[red_tree 16]

Sorry '2014' is correct, I've just started the process.

I fixed that.
