chris23 19 Posted January 7, 2013 Hi, I was wondering if depending on what state you live in, will you get approved faster? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawf 336 Posted January 7, 2013 Yes and no, it isn't about the state. It is mainly how fast each center works. My personal opinion is that Nebraska "Lin" center is processing documents faster than any other center. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pswa83 302 Posted January 7, 2013 true true Rawf. it seems like the centers switch off on who works faster. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rh_ny 56 Posted January 7, 2013 Yeah mostly it depends on service centers, but I have noticed Vermont approves people from other states specially Florida fast but New York :s 2 chris23 and MoniqueMelissa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pswa83 302 Posted January 7, 2013 i thought there were 4 as well, however, the other day (just for fun) i decided to google it just for fun. it turns out that there are 5 service centers, with Missouri being the 5th. however, the MO service center is not processing DACA applications.

erika22 27 Posted January 7, 2013 Well hopefully the centers start approving people faster. Imagine how slower the process would be if they hadn't hired workers to be ready for the DACA process. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heisenberg2 34 Posted January 14, 2013 So WAC is from which state ? I live in Cali, but sent it to the Arizona Lockbox. Did I send it to the wrong location ? now I'm a little confused ?!?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erika020 87 Posted January 15, 2013 So WAC is from which state ? I live in Cali, but sent it to the Arizona Lockbox. Did I send it to the wrong location ? now I'm a little confused ?!?! No you didn't send it to the wrong location... from Arizona they send your app to one of the 4 centers previously mentioned (Vermont, Nebraska, California and Texas) to be reviewed... on the envelope you got with your Biometrics appointment it should say from what center they sent it to you ( example:California Service Center P.O.Box 30111 Laguna Niguel, CA 92607-0111) I also live in Cali and I also sent it to the Phoenix Lockbox and from there my app was sent to the California Center Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Santi 353 Posted January 15, 2013 Yes and no, it isn't about the state. It is mainly how fast each center works. My personal opinion is that Nebraska "Lin" center is processing documents faster than any other center. I am not sure if I disagree with your statement (in bold face). This is due to the fact that I am with Nebraska and I think they will have me wait the whole 6 mos! Several others are still waiting on Nebraska. I would like to see official statistics to determine which center is churning out acceptance letters faster. I would assume the centers that are most efficient, are the ones better staffed with more personnel. It would also be safe to assume that those 'efficient' centers handle the applications of the states most heavily populated with people in our situation (West, SW, Bible Belt?) Those are just inferences, taking into account some statistics...I could be wrong, or right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatboyslimmy 0 Posted January 15, 2013 My application was sent to the Vermont center on September 24. Got my bio done October 30 and been waiting. I definitely think Vermont is the slowest in the country. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daprado2013 0 Posted January 15, 2013 I wonder if your age matters, my sister is younger than me and she got approved a month ago and im still waiting. we sent applications at the same time to the same vermont center. we both got our bio's around the same time and yet im still waiting... i think the older you are the longer it takes bc they need to verify more info.
