VSC 2003 by sampling scanning

[nemessis]

Since sbctsublc decided to stop his weekly reports I will post my weekly scanning for EAC03 cases. The data I have so far is obtained by sampling every fifth day for EAC03100 – EAC03215 (my date), EAC03001 and EAC03050. Even if this data is not as accurate as sbctsublc's data because of the sampling error, it can give you a feeling of what’s going on at USCIS. I used the same method for I140 and I was able to predict pretty well what was happening. I will also try to post weekly statistics about what they’ve done from a week to another. Unfortunately I don’t have Adobe Acrobat at work to convert to pdf so Unix/Linux users may not see the data but if somebody can convert it to be accessible to everyone is welcome to do it. Also if there are volunteers who can help me to do the initial scanning for other dates that will improve the quality of data/prediction we have here. I hope also sbctsublc will continue with his data so we can have a better idea of what’s going on at USCIS, especially in this period when they might implement some new things ...

I plotted only 2 things now: “Completed” means Approved + Transfered + Denied/Withdrawn. I also plotted the FP since that might be of interest for some of us. As we can see from the plot the frontwave of FP is somewhere at the end of June 2003.
