No Title
newly saint,
I tried several times in the past and let me try once again (this will be last time for me) whether you accept it or not,
1. On this board we didn\'t see any approval from 04/10 to 04/29 (by the way it is not just two days as per your mail). I am saying this based on the data I collected on this board! Please see
http://pc485.tripod.com/ADThrd.html
2. Even from 04/30 we saw very few approvals in numbers. Before 04/12 on average we use to see app. 6 approvals a day! (by the way message in #4.1 I posted on 04/30)
3. If you are one of those who thinks that there will be an official release/news for every thing that happens with INS, then I am sorry I already wasted lot of my time! My assumption is that in most of the cases what INS does and what it officially says (w.r.t. processing) there is no link and that\'s way so many people are coming on to boards like this to get more information based on experiences data etc.
Let me take some examples:
1. For AOS "OFFICIALLY" CSC AVM says it will take any where between 975 to 999 days when majority of people are getting approvals in and around 250 days.
2. Couple of months back as per JIT ("OFFICIALLY"
CSC was saying that -is processing cases of 01/01/2000 where as on this board we know that it was approving cases of 04/01/2001. Even now as per JIT CSC is processing April cases but we know that there are several people that got approved with Sept ND!
3. "OFFICIALLY" when INS talked about this new security check they said it is not going to impact processing time! But later they said that it could delay by 30 days! In my view "Planning" and "Execution/Results" are two different things. You are talking on planning side and based on that what INS aticipates, and I am on the other side (ie. what is the exact impact and how it executed their plan and what are the results based on the data we could get).
Now back to original topic: Probably you may say that in my earlier post I should have used "I" instead of "We" in #4.1 in this thread when I wrote
b "We are under the impression that CSC stopped approving any cases since 04/12.."
I know several people on this board agreed with me with my views on this topic and also understand that there will be people like you who won\'t agree with me. As I wrote earlier, I am not an attorney, I am not a law student either! I am talking based on my experience, and data/experiences I collected on this board.
I totally understand that we both have opposite views and different way of understanding. Can we please agree to disagree on this topic and others we argued so far? From now on I am going to IGNORE any post from you and hope that you will do the same. I wish if this board had this feature.
