Congratulations...
szhou,
Congratulations.
Here is my 2c worth about your data that may look a bit different to most of us on this board.
1. FIrst, (I am not pointing to any one in particular but..) guys it may not be wise to blame every time if we suspect that the data is improper. There could be so many reasons behind it, which we may not understand it at that point of time. Especially note that we are dealing with INS here. The member may be providing proper data but w.r.t. approvals there may not be good convincing logic behind it. Also note that we don\'t have even 1% total cases CSC is processing!
2. As (along with rsrgc) couple of others suggested in current case RD and ND look normal to me! Note that there are couple of other similar cases. Around the same time CSC was speeding their processing of issuing receipts and in several cases they gave proper ND but much later RD! I remember several people complaining about this in July/August thread(s). Take my case as example my RD is 06/28 and ND is 09/24 (My receipts got delayed by minimum one month, I have to do several fax enquiries, IIO calls to get them).
3. There is another very important thing to note in current case! Based on this case I am guessing that INS actually following ND instead of RD while assigning cases. If it is true then right now they are into August cases. As I wrote earlier in my case they followed ND to approve my AP, EAD. But FPs came based on RD though, so I was hoping that I will get AOS also based on RD.
4. In the past when there is only couple of days difference between RD and ND it didn\'t matter much if INS followed RD or ND. But now since there is couple of months difference between these dates and in some cases (for e.g. current case and mine) there is some descripency it is making lot of difference. But by closely observing these special cases I guess we can establish the trend.
5. Based on this case, and what happened to my case so far, I am jumping the ship and assuming that INS follows ND instead of RD for AOS.
If many agree with this then probably I should make some changes to our summary lists and sort them based on ND.
