Status of NIW applicants at VSC since September 2005

Hi guys,
I am submitting my petition for I-140 either this week or next. Everything is almost ready. The news is that the service centre might be changed to TSC from VSC from April 1st. Is it adviceable to rush and send the documents for VSC or wait for a week and get into TSC. Guys please suggest.

USCIS has previously instructed customers to file I-129 and I-140 petitions at one of its four service centers. Once the amended filing instructions take effect on April 1st, however, USCIS will not reject any I-129 or I-140 sent to the incorrect service center. Instead, USCIS will accept the filing, redirect it to the correct location, and honor the initial receipt date. The April 1st changes, establishing a new filing location for forms I-129, I-140 and related forms, do not affect other aspects of the forms’ instructions and do not change the forms themselves. USCIS will continue to honor previous versions of the forms.
 
startrek2005,
Effective April 01, you need to submit I-140 and other documentations (for concurrent filing) to NSC, and not TSC! Your case "may" be assigned to TSC. But from what it has been reported in this forum, perhaps I-140 applicants in CSC service area will be adjudicated by TSC.
 
Sorry, I should have been more clear on what I was asking. Since, TSC processes the applications faster, is it better to send it to TSC. Other school of thought is that since VSC won't be working on I-140 in the future as per the notice, they may process the pending applications faster until the ones filed by end of March and get it out of the way. Any comments please
 
initiate an enquiry

Hi NIW-VSC05 and others when can you initiate a query with the USCIS folks. i.e., soon after they post their processing dates that are close your RD/ND or a month or two afterwards.
And will it help if we ask them : what's been happening to my application ?

My case is still pending. RD 9/14/05
 
When to contact VSC?

Please see my previous message below. As of Feb 22, processing dates for I-40 EB2-NIW were at sept 10, 2005, that too since February. Now, the one month waiting is way past for RDs between Sept 10 and 19th. Should they call VSC now or wait until the next processing dates are posted?

I hope they are not shipping our stuff to NSC or TSC.

adjudicator on vacation?

Anyone with RD/ND after 9/20/5 heard from VSC recently?

I am hoping the processing dates starts rolling soon since it hasn't budged an inch for 2 months.....I wonder if the adjudicator responsible for NIW category is taking a vacation, or something might have happened to him/her.

Original Receipt Date /original notice date

My original I-140 receipt notice mentions Receipt Date of 9/26/2005. The notice date is, however, 10/6/2005. My online case status shows a receipt date of 10/6/2005. I understand Receipt date is used to set a priority date at the time of I-485 consideration. Would you guys care to share your wisdom on this subject or kindly direct me to USCIS resources that speak clearly on this subject.

I am raising all this discussion to see what my chances are to fight for the 10 days of advantage I can get for the Priority Dates or for that matter to even call USCIS to check on my I-140 status.
 
Vsc Is Sleeping Or Afraid Of Touching The Volume Of Applications Received By Sep 2005, So Expect The Dates To Move Slowly And Patiently Wait Guys, For Example Advanced Degree Eb2 Moved One Day People Filing To Nebraska After April May Get Early Approval, That Is How It Works
