Vermont Service Center Transfers Thousands of Cases to the Texas and California Service Centers

August 16, 2006

USCIS published a public notice on July 26, 2006 stating that due to an unusually high workload at the Vermont Service Center, they have recently transferred 5,000 petitions for nonimmigrant workers (I-129) to the Texas Service Center and 22,000 I-130 immigrant petitions to the California Service Center for adjudication. In practice, it appears that some I-360 petitions have also been transferred from Vermont to the California Service Center, though this was not announced.

I trust you know how much all of us at the Spreckels Organ Society appreciate your incredible generosity in providing legal assistance with the visas required by the international artists last year during our International Summer Organ Festival. We consider it an honor that you and your firm provided this service, and were delighted to publicize your firm in our concert materials. George H.

That's good news on the approval of our 3 executive L1A visas. You fought a tough RFE, but we won. We are pleased to be working with you. KB is also bringing passports tomorrow again to the US Embassy in Tashkent for visa processing. We look forward to his arrival to the US. Sarvar

I wanted to thank again and again for obtaining my E1 Treaty Trader visa for me. The process was not easy, especially since our trade was all based on Technology. You knew the law, and was able to craft an outstanding file to be presented to Immigration. We are now ready to take the business to the next level. Toda Raba

Thanks for helping me with my marriage-based immigration case. You were very accessible - taking my calls, returning my messages and emails promptly. You answered all my questions. I was most impressed and relieved that you attended the immigration interview with me and my wife. You made the whole process streamline and simple. You really know your stuff, and you're a nice, friendly guy as well. Shane P.
