Hi Want,
NSC is processing up to October 2000 cases now, but not those filed in calendar year 2001 yet. The chance for those who filed in calendar year 2001 get approval is really slim, I guess less than 0.01% (29353 x 0.01% = 3) at this time. Those who got approval must be in exception or the lucky one. Why rushing to do the Bio before your schedule date since your notice date was in May 2001. I don't see your point. You just drive NSC flood with unwanted phone call. 29,353 asylee filed in fiscal year 2001; can you imagine how much resources needed to handle these phone calls. I guess you just expecting your case line up front of those filed in early fiscal year 2001, so you will get approved before them. That is absolutely wrong. Well, you might be the lucky one.
