USCIS Service Centers

World International

Published

Do you have any idea why Vermont is now the slowest among the four service centers on the processing dates? It seems Nebraska is the most updated followed by Texas then California.

This came to my attention coz a lot of nurses have been applying for Vermont and now that it had slowed down, they were thinking if they made a mistake in submitting their petition there.

Hope somebody could enlighten us on this. Will really appreciate it. :nurse:

Monday is considered the legal holiday here, so only a partial week, as many will leave early on Friday. Do not expect the service to return to normal until after the New Year. This is the same with the Embassies as well.

I think Texas is accurate, here is my story (RN)

Everything was received by Texas on 19 August 05

EAD approved September 6th

I-140 approved October 5th

Finger printing October 13

RFE for I-485 repply, received by Texas on 23 November

I-485 approved December 9

We received our cards and letters of approval on December 16

About 4 months everything was cleared, I thank God for that. I wish you all a quick and fovourable response from all these Service centers.

I think texas service center is pretty much on time. I am scheduled for fingerprint in January, exactly three months after the receipt date. Hope my process is as smooth as yours.

Unfortunately, I moved so I have to change the address. Does anybody know whether changing address affect the process time? :specs:

I don't think changing address will affect anything.

Instead of sending letters to your old address, they'll send it to your new one:specs:

I saw the processing times for Vermont Service Center! They are processing is May 14,2005. That is good news to us all!:balloons:

Again don't rely entirely on that. There are some nurses here that had dates of July, 2005 and already have their approval out of Vermont.

Got a question here about the dates at USCIS. Sometime last November 2005, USCIS were asking for additional evidence for my I140 papers. We sent them the additional evidence they were asking immediately. Today I saw the dates at USCIS and they were processing July 2,2005 already. And mine was on May 23,2005. My question is how come there is no approval or decision for my case yet?

Don't rely on those dates completely.

my friend's petition was processed in vermont. they requested for additional documents last december 15, 2005. these documents were sent by the agency and USCIS received it january 3, 2006. petition was approved january 20, 2006. I think it is safe to base the time frame of the processing of your case with this. The dates they provide at their website are not accurate at all time:rotfl: .

For those who have filed at Texas Service Center, their processing date has moved to November 29 :)
