VSC didnot stop processing. Infact they are rocking now.
I heard the story of TSC (texas center)that they stopping old cases and started approving new resumed cases. Who knows VSC may start approving new filers as they are in much better shape in relation to early Finger Print/ I-140 return of consular cases/ current employment (INS may get suspicious whether the old applicant really have any job offer due to economic downturn).
So VSC might think, current applicant atleast survived from the economic downturn and they are really tough cookie. If that happens, my dear new applicants, prepare for the good news.
