O/T: Is this really true.....?
Had to laugh when I read this, from the Customer Service web page.....
"The NCSC gives customers throughout the country another way to get consistent, accurate information and assistance on immigration services and benefits. We know that service by phone may be more convenient than having to write and wait for a reply, or having to take time off from work to go to the nearest Immigration office."
They should put at the bottom, "By the way, none of the above is entirely true." Consistant certainly isn't.
Hehehehehe!

You'll never get a government department to admit fault or inefficiency! Especially the USCIS!

Re: O/T: Is this really true.....?
Consistent isn't true Kate???
Nor is accurate half the time =P
Maybe we should write it for them.. how about this...
"The NCSC gives customers throughout the country another way to get some information and assistance on immigration services and benefits, although we can't guarantee that if you ring up twice and ask the same question you will get the same answer. We know that service by phone may be more convenient than having to write and wait for a reply, or having to take time off from work to go to the nearest Immigration office. It also means we don't have to give you anything in writing to prove we ever told you anything explicitly."

"By calling us by phone, you'll get several different answers, so you'll probably still have to take time off work anyway, camp outside your local office all night, only to be told that they can't file your forms, as the package isn't complete, even though the "skilled" people who answer our phones told you you wouldn't need the missing forms in the first place. We will then send you away, tired frustrated, and close to tears, only to depress you further the next time you file anything by telling you that the wait times are pure fiction, and you'll still have to wait forever for a little laminated card with a fingerprint on it."
Is that accurate?
Getting carried away, now! Kate. xxxxxx

Reminds me of the joke "Your Government in Action is really 2 words not 3"! Or, "I'm from the Government and I'm here to Help!" LOL
