FP and Processing precedures in VSC

christi

Registered Users (C)
I have seen many discussion about the FP issues with the caseshaving the RDs between OCT-99 and MAR-00, and many different theories about how VSC is processing AOS. My thought on these are:

    1. FP issued for the RDs fter MAR-00 is automatically generated by the computer system,While the cases received prior to that need to be manually generated, or processed, to be more acactuate. You will find the difference between FP notice with RD before 10/99 and FP notice with RD after Mar-00.

    2. The cases WITH FP DONE will be processed in the order of RD.

    3. OCT-99 to MAR-00 case are going to be handled differently. As they do not have complete information and are out of current newly adopted process loop. They are either going to be (or already) transferred to the Local INS, or handled by a different assigned group of people at VSC.

attention, the cases sent in after Mar-00, received the FP most in two months fram after the RD.

    Case to the point:

    IN early 1997, the process of AOS changed. The process of AOS for EB changed to be processed at Four Service centers (VSC, TSC...) in stead of at the local INS centers. During the process changing period, some applicants got the benifits, some got screwed. For the applications submitted after Apr-97 were directed sent to the service center, and got approval in exceptionally fast speed. For these, the green cards were received by the end of 1997 even with the delay of card processing due to GC production machine problems. While, for the applications with RD even prior to APR-97 had to be transferred from the location INS to the service centers. Unfortunately, for many of Chinese, PD showed up by the end of 1997. So many of people have the RD before 4/97, have to wait for another two or three years to get their approval.

my RD SEP00 and did my finger prints in jan01...

I spoke to IIO yesterday and she told me that a officer is working on my case and I should be hearing something in 4-6 weeks. I also checked with my lawyer and he told me that it is correct there are some internal changes in the way the INS VSC is doing I485 processing..He thinks to reduce the backlogs at VSC they have given the March00 onward cases to other group.

Suni,
This is hard to believe, but I long to believe its true. Even my case is same as yours with RD Sep 00 and FP done in Jan 01. This means your FP\'s are already in INS system from FBI.
Question for you: Which city/state are you in ? Do they fall in Vermont Jurisdiction ?

Thanks for your reply

Please note, that There are some pre-conditions and results I did not specify in the first message:

1. Here I only refer to Chinese and Indian applications as they have the PD, and consequently have the FP expiration problem. So it is not suprising to see some cases with RD OCT/99 proven. There are mostly like for Country as OTHER, or few cases have been processed before the policy started or the cases get lucky (you see some postings stated the cases got approval before PD became current).

2. The results with all of these does NOT mean that those people with RD later than MAR-00 and had the FP done will got processed or approval BEFORE RD between OCT-00 and MAR-00. The process is still going to be \'according to the RD with FP done\'. So it is matter of marching and catching up. Think about this, now INS VSC is processing the OCT-00 case, more acurately, they are sending out the FP for these month. And the time scheduled for FP to be done for these people is ranged fromo MAR-01 to APR-01. FP will start to go back to INS VSC from APR-01 to May-01. Then INS has to reopen these case from APR-01 (assume that INS is very effcient). So this leaves the following possible results:

1. IF from FEB-01 to APR-01, INS process is sending out the FP for RD OCT-99 to MAR-00, and just finish it in APR-01 when cases with RD OCT-99 are ready for reopening with FP, then you would not see many of approval for Chinese or Indian, but many approvals in May-01.

2. IF from FEB-01 to APR-01, INS process is sending out the FP for RD OCT-99to MAR-00, and finish it before APR-01 when cases with RD OCT-99 are ready for reopening with FP, then you would see some approval for Chinese and Indian with RD after MAR-00.

christi: on your point #3 it appears like cases with RD/ND between oct99-Mar00 are not transferred to local INS office I am seeing postings of FP receipt on a daily basis, even today there was one with country india and not other.

Hi! Can anyone in this group tell me if INS is still sending FP notices to ND after March 2000.
My ND was OCT 2000 and FP was in Jan 2001.
I heard that they stopped FP\'s from then on for ND 2000 people.
I guess someone should try to contact the II for more info.

Christi,
How do you explain that people with other country and whose RD is between Oct.99 and March.00 received FP notice in order?

That (transferring to Local) is just one of possibilties. And Do not forget to continuely read, \'Or the cases are handled by a different group at the INS VSC\'. The point here (in priovious) message is Cases for THE period are handled differently. And the reason has been the generating of FP process is changed.

485 process for China and India are handled differently from the others who do NOT have PD issue. It has been like this.

Christi,

What is your basis of saying that Oct99-Mar00 cases are being handled by a different group in VSC? Please clarify. All of us who have spoken to IIO did not seem to have any knowledge of this.

This is a logical process, or "theory". There is a new process about generating FP. Do you think your boss will have you handle both new process and old process in a busy production line so as to confuse you?

   He said is a long way to go....as VSC is processing Oct 15th 1999 cases.

You wrote: “OCT-99 to MAR-00 case are going to be handled differently. As they do not have complete information and are out of current newly adopted process loop.

My understanding is that you seem to imply that those Indians and Chinese whose RD is between Oct.99 and March.00 do not have complete information as those people who are from country others and have the same RD.

Is it correct? Please clarify it. Besides, many of Indians and Chinese do not have PD issue, and their PD is current. Do you have an explanation for this?

Thanks.

Hi Suni

My ND is JUL00 and my FP was done DEC00. I tried calling the IIO recently but could not get thru. I am dialing 802 527 4913 (correct me if i am wrong). If the IIO said they are looking into your case (SEP00) what was your PD. Mine is FEB99. EB2.
Could you give me your contact details so I can email u and see if i can get any info. I plan to call the IIO on Monday again having tried unsuccessfully all day today.
Or u can write to me at rickl02@hotmail.com

Thanks in advance dude.
