Same here.
'You application was received HERE' (we all know that HERE means TSC but it isn t a way to write an official letter), then today the message changes and we will be noticed 'when this case is DONE'.
If I would have received those messages from another website than USCIS, i would have thought those were bogus messages ;l-)
The guy that wrote those messages probably wrote them in a hurry...
ANYHOW ... i guess THAT counts as another LUD. Maybe they got tired of people asking them about this 400 days wait !

Status of Service Centers' Processing of I-140/I-485

Relay from oh-law:

* Bi-Specialization Program is likely to create some delays and other problems at least at the initial stage for the two reasons: Reason 1: The concept of the two Service Centers specializing in either employment-based nonimmigrant proceedings (I-129) or employment-based immigrant proceedings (I-140/I-485) require shipment of half of the filings via overnight delivery services from the Service Center that receives the petitions/applications (Vermont Service Center in I-129 and Nebraska Service Center in I-140/I-485) to other Satelite Service Centers (California Service Center in I-129 and Texas Service Center in I-140/I-485). Technically, the filings will have to go through the double front-end or mail-room processsing. Obviously, there will arise some mishaps of losing or misplacing files and contractor mishandling cases at the front ends. In the case of I-140/I-485, Texas Service Center has just confirmed that the workloads are split half and half between the NSC and the TSC and the NSC ships incoming I-140/I-485 case filings to the TSC every other day via DHL. Even though there is no confirmation, probably same thing may be happening between the VSC and the CSC for I-129 filings. Physical shipments of these filings coast to coast or from the Northern border to the Southern border must involve a huge traffic everyday. Reason 2: Initial announcement of the USCIS Bi-Specialization Program gave impression that the program would just apply to the new cases after April 1, 2006 and the existing cases may be finished up by the Service Centers where people had filed their cases. However, the reality appears to be completely different. According to the TSC, it received 14,000 existing I-140/I-485 cases from the CSC and another 4,300 or 4,400 cases from the VSC. No wonder why I-140 processing and adjudication have witnessed slow-down lately. The TSC reports that it intends to complete these cases within 180 days from the date of filing, obviously to meet the target of Bush's six-month adjudication commitment, but people should not hold their breath yet. There is no information available about as to whether idential process is taking place for transfer of existing I-129 cases to either VSC or CSC. But educated guess is "probably not" in view of the short processing cycle in I-129 cases. This does not mean that the processing of existing I-129 cases by the NSC and the TSC is not affected by the reengineering of processing system. Report indicates that those resources within each of these two Service Centers that handled I-129 cases have been switched to the I-140/I-485 production lines in most cases. Without doubt, such transformation has affected the recent processing times of I-129 cases in these Service Centers.
* It appears that the Bi-Specialization reform is supposed to achieve its intended goal when the USCIS' another planned transformation of filing, processing, and adjudication system "electronically" materializes. Until that time, it is likely that the USCIS may continue to experience some unintended aches and pains of processing and adjudication of the employment-based petitions and applications, albeit limited to the transitional period. We hope the best for the USCIS.

Hmm... everyone didnt get this message? I am also in the 003 series. I think LaxmanGupt is in 001-004 series as he also applied in end of Sept. What about you juntha? Does this mean that TSC will start taking applications in order???

The wording of LUD is such that I wont see the change in status in the scanner.

I called USCIS... they said that TSC will specify a date soon regarding which applications are being processed. And she told me to call back at the end of this month if I dont hear anything by then.

Wasnt that the previous one? Or did they just fix the grammar?

The message changed in my case as well. Earlier the message used to say "Its taking 270-300 days to process these kinds of cases...". Now its more than 270 days in my case since it was filed Aug 2005 and I dont see the line anymore.

There was an RFE in March and it was responded by end of April 2006 and the case is still processed in CSC I guess.
 
Hi, ahaly,

Did you see the cases move slow or fast in recent days? I did not see a lot people report the approval in this forum this week. We have less and less people stay in this forum. Do you mind post your scan results here? Thanks!
