I was sitting here alone in my office today looking at the changes in processing times as TSC continues to get slower CSC continues to get faster. Im starting to wonder when CSC is going to start processing future applications, soon people who get sent to CSC will get an email before they file stating we know you have not filed yet but may someday so we are notifying you in advance that your petition has been approved. Then I went on and looked at CSC on IGORS list and to my amusement there is an approval with NOA1 date as 7/24/2015 and NOA2 date as 8/22/2015.

CSC fillers can have kinds until TSC fillers get approved.

Well unless we see more of this type of thing happening, then I suspect that this was an anomaly. TabeaK is correct: one data point isn't enough to really know anything at this point. I tend to thin

LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT UPDATE Some of you may recall that the Skunkworks team sent a letter to president Obama requesting his help in balancing the I-129F processing times between the CSC and TSC.

They will take a while to initiate all the transfers. Try not to be disheartened because you didn't hear what you hoped for today. There may be more to be announced in the coming week or two.

Wake up people. They aren't going to transfer cases currently at TSC. They are routing new cases to California. April filers from the east coast are going to CSC!!!

The public announcement was to decrease backlog. One way to do that is to route new cases somewhere else.

I'm losing it at this point. No news is better than false f***king hope. My heart goes out to Aug/Sept filers...we other TSC applicants will be in your shoes soon.
