And its official now.. USCIS have consolidated on one more conniving trend to continue to keep us in the dark :mad:

The dates are claimed to be "as of " Aug 31st.

When they did this in the last update and said the dates were "as of " July 31 2008, I thought it was going to be a one time thing and in the next update they will give us up to the date info. But hell NO!!

If they only disclose info as of some date in the past, how the hell are we supposed to know whether our case is currently "beyond" normal processing times !!! And how the heck can we file a service request !

They just want us off their back altogether and go at their own pace.

With this staggered (Processing dates and PD) approach, they can manipulate one thing or the other (Spike the PD and retrogress the Proc Date OR vice Versa) and forever juggle and skirt around accountability altogether and don't have to answer or take any status queries at all ! Why don't they use the same intelligence to try to improve their processes and improve their productivity !

I am thinking of taking an Info Pass nevertheless and try to get some status about my case. If the IO mentions anything about "normal processing times" I am gonna ask him how can he tell whether my case is currently within normal processing times or not ! And see how what response he/she gives me.

They had already made PD bulletins a big joke and now added the Processing date bulletin to that bucket. I wonder what kind of improvements (if at all) in the accuracy of data that we will see after their DB upgrades...
