I just 'ran' to check our case status and apparently no updates....... :*(
But here's hope for more efficient and even processing time for everyone!

I guess things can be more complicated for the people working there to transfer the cases, but I just don't get how they seem to not realize they need to divide the workload better between the two service centers................... It isn't even like a month difference on processing time between the two. It's 3~4 months difference. That's just silly.

I'm hoping it's no more than 3 months...the agony of waiting (doing nothing) is killing me. And knowing that tsc is lagging behind makes it worse. I feel for those who are already at 5 & 6 months, I really do. But I don't want to get to that point. I want them to suddenly start catching up & press forward so that maybe, just maybe, we all get done at 4 months instead of ten years like seems to be their trend (cuz the last two months since I filed feels like 6 years) if the people working there had to be separated from their loved ones like us, they'd work faster...:/

I know it's only been a little under two months since I filed, but seeing how tsc is reacting to November & December filers inquiring on their cases & how far behind they are, it just seems like they don't care...at all. I fear I won't see my love again until next year...5 months would be September, but if they continue on their route, we won't be approved until December. The thought of waiting this long hurts so much...and seeing CSC filers who filed after me getting their noa2 already makes me want to fly down to Texas & punch someone in their face. They should be processing February/March now. Not November/December. They were filing October/November when I first joined this site in March. So in 3 months they've only gotten through not even a month of applicants???
I contacted 2 senators about the discrepancy (yes, that was my intent, even though other filers got mad that us newer ones tried this) & the one mentioned Vermont. Vermont doesn't even process them anymore, so it shows that they don't even know what's going on at all with the centers.
And then when us "new" filers complain about the backlog we get "yelled" at by filers who have waited longer because...they've been waiting longer. Yes, I get it. You filed before me. I'd be a March filer if documents hadn't gotten stuck in international mail (that I still haven't received, forcing Matt to send me new ones). But just because others filed before me doesn't make my pain hurt any less. I KNOW I won't see him for an eternity & it's not fair. It's not fair to any of us to be punished just because we fell in love with a foreigner. I didn't mean for this to happen, but it did & all I want (& all any of you want) is to start a life with him.
I can't talk about this with anyone I know in person cuz they just don't get it. They see my staying at home & playing video games with him & waking up early to talk over the mic as weird & me being a "hermit". I just want him here & not seeing any movement in the months before mine just makes it worse. None of us can do anything. I can't do anything until September & from the looks of it, they'll just be mean to me when I call. But I'll keep calling. Every freaking day if I have to. This hurts. And I had to say something. I feel helpless in this process. And I know many of you do too. It doesn't matter when you filed, if you're not with the love of your life, it hurts. I hope to god tsc suddenly gets a fire lit under their asses & starts going through the petitions at a faster pace instead of being mean & not caring that it's taking over half a year to process these. If it were my job, I'd actually care & feel good about helping people, not getting mad because two people want to get married & be happy.

SO TRUE!
Well, here's some tiny bit of consolation for you (and all of us): there's a mid-January filer who got his/her NOA2 yesterday, which means there IS hope that we can get ours in 5 months. This is paltry hope compared to the CSC guys, but hey, any port in the storm...etc...

I thought I would follow this but I if this is for TSC filers how come CSC filers are posting on here

Considering the rapidity which people who were lucky enough to get routed to CSC are getting approved, I thought I would make this thread for those of us who filed in April and were routed to TSC. As a place to discuss the waiting period, but mostly because seeing CSC people getting approved after two weeks is heart breaking.
So post away my fellow TSC filers!

My lawyer contact USCIS Customer Service on June 13, 2014. At that time, they told her that the Texas Service Center was working on cases they received on December 3, 2013. Because my case was received on December 16, 2013, they said to call back in two weeks or a month (if we haven’t heard anything by that time).

My husband listed unemployed and at the time we filed I was on a layoff list for my job. I wanted to send the AOS with the original filing and spoke with my lawyer. He said the AOS is 3-4 months down the road and as long as I had a job by then showing I could support both of us nothing else mattered so make sure I was employed by then. Thankfully I saved my job so I can handle the AOS just fine. Would be interesting to hear what others say though as my lawyer also said I didn't have to send in evidence of bona fide marriage until they asked which I know isn't right.
