Seems like CSC may have overloaded the system. Lots of work done yesterday! Good job, men & women.

 

As for today, there's 15 RFEs, 1 denial, and 1 bounced mailing so far.

Amazing!!!  Nov 28 is the next date to get touched!!!  WOOHOOO!!!!!

There's a term for this in my field: GIGO (Garbage In, Garbage Out).   Some users probably entered the wrong year, or transposed the month and day or something.

I figured it must be user error.  Thanks Geo.

There are some NOA2 dates on there that have not yet come to pass...  What's up with those.  NOA2 March 9, 2017?  Wut?

I forgot this existed.  Thank you!

In the VJ immigration timeline from users there was a 11/29 approval also!

Really?  What is that?  Link me plznthx

On the app, is "date applied" the same as "receive date"?

Sorry, another question,

 

Does anyone know anything about expediting the process? My film is screening in a big film festival in the U.S. early April, and I would really like to be in attendance. I figured it's probably not a valid reason for immigration purpose?

Why can't you just go for the festival without the Visa?

Not bad, USCIS. Not bad! Lots of RFEs still, but they're cranking away pretty well. Hopefully the RFEs are for good reasons and people rushing to get in before the fee hike or post-election. Lots of RFEs and denials on the early Nov. and Oct filers especially...my guess now is they weren't all just overlooked but had to be looked at more closely.

Very nice.  Wonder if Jim was one of the five 31Octs.

Thank you!!!

I've been searching for where I have to go to get my medical done but I'm not finding anything.  Anyone know where I can find this info?

I honestly can't remember if it was me or not, but here is the Canada sub-forum:

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/93-canada/

It's very helpful.  Just about every question I can think to ask about Canada has already been answered.  I've read a lot of the threads and they have really helped me and my fiancé feel more prepared.

Thank you!!

@Chelleyandaaron Hey!  I recall you posting something about a thread specific to Canada a while ago but I can't find it.  Did I fabricate this in my shoddy memory?  

Where might one find that Canada thread?

I've got a memory like a sieve.  I'm not looking forward to trying to figure out US travel over my lifetime although I know for sure it's nowhere near 22 times.  10 times maybe...I'll have to ask the mothership.

WHAT on Earth is going on with your case???  That signature looks  difficult.

2 minutes ago, geowrian said:

No problem. Just running the scan only takes me like 2 minutes. The rest is waiting. If there's no updates today, I just won't spend the time compiling it into the excel and access formats. At the current rate, that's looking to be the case...4200/5000 scanned and 0 updates for today so far.

Okay, great. 

3 minutes ago, geowrian said:

 

Ah. Yeah, I think that's just how the app works. It doesn't actively go out and monitor everybody's case number for updates. When somebody opens (it maybe if it's running in the background), it checks and then updates on its end. So most likely somebody just found out about their approval, not that a case was just approved. Shucks.

Poo.  Sorry to make you go through that, Geo.

Do you know how to get the case number?  I just got another notification for a 16Nov Philippines file being approved....unfortunately it says it was generated at Feb 12, 2017 at 8:19 AM.  

2 minutes ago, geowrian said:

Still running. It takes 50-70 minutes to run, the another 20 or so minutes for me to compile all the info. That said, so far I'm not seeing any cases updated today.

 

@amye What case number(s) did you see updated? I can do a second check here to see if something is up.

It doesn't show me the case #.

Just now, geowrian said:

Really? Woohoo! I'll run my scan later just in case. I was planning to skip it, but I'll run due to this info.

Yeah, I just got a notification on my app.  A 15Nov Philippines file.

the ds-160 I filled in let me fill in nine.  Older forms only asked for five most recent visits

Okay, I understood your last message to mean they only require the last five visits.

7 hours ago, MapleLeaf29 said:

Oh, that's helpful.  Like a lot of Canadians, my fiancé has been to the US a zillion times, starting when he was a child.  We were afraid we would have to list every single visit.  It's so nice to know that we only need to list the most recent nine.

most recent FIVE

Have a lovely time, Jim.
