USCIS NSC & TSC differences - How does this make any sense?
NSC (Nebraska Service Center) and TSC (Texas Service Center) are two branches of the USCIS. To the lay immigrant, they pretty much perform the same duties in two different states. Even if there are differences, as long as the two process the SAME form for 2 different sets of applicants, does it not make sense that their processing times should be relatively the same?
Then how does NSC lag behind the TSC by 134 days for EB2 and EB3 I-140 processing? How is that justified? Has nobody ever asked this question to the USCIS?
Further, from months of closely watching the I-140 and I-485 immigration tracker at Trackitt (which by the way, is an AMAZING service, hats off to them), I have noticed that there are hardly any EB3 I-140 approvals at NSC and there are certainly more number of EB3 I-140 approvals at TSC (at least 5 times more with my personal guarantee, probably much more than that). Now I know that not all people put their cases in Trackitt for tracking, but I don’t think there is any reason to believe that NSC applicants wouldn’t put their cases in and TSC ones would. Outside of Trackitt, at immigration forums such as Immigration Voice and the Murthy Forum, it is clearly evident that NSC is not making any significant progress in I-140 approvals.
Isn’t the USCIS answerable to us about such discrepancies or is this asking for too much?
