leo07, I would say you can contact after the processing time is up. Now, as per TSC, processing time is in March 2011, so if you are TSC, it's really unfortunate, you can try your luck after 4 months, if a senator/congressmen agrees. Mostly you will just get a letter from USCIS saying it's within processing times and your file is in review. If you are TSC, maybe you can just take infopass after 4 months, saying you want information on status of your case with higher level officer. The officers do give useful information like your file is with an officer, or is not with an officer yet, like you have passed all background checks etc.
But with NSC, if 4 months gone, I don't see why you cannot contact senator.
Thanks leo07 and Teddy for the clarification.
If we read the below extract
"If the office is processing a particular type of application in less time than our processing goal, you will see the processing times expressed in months (for example, if the office is processing naturalization applications in less than our 5 month goal, the processing time will state "Five Months"). However, if that office is taking longer than our processing goal to handle the form type in question, you will see the filing date (e.g., "April 10, 2003") of the last case we processed on the date the website chart was last updated. The charts are updated on or about the 15th day of each month."
Looking at the chart TSC is not meeting the national standards in terms of completion of application. most of the Oct and Nov filers have already received their EAD and AP's which should not have been the case as they are still processing August 2011 cases based on this update
I guess this dates signifies two things
1) The oldest case which was say worked on in the I765 Department @ TSC on the day of publishing this was Aug 11, 2011. Since this case lies outside the national average of 4 months so they have mentioned this date for I140 which does not mean they are not working on the new cases.
2) This also gives them the opportunity to stay away from Queries for the cases which are later then the date mentioned on the website. Although this gives an opportunity for the earlier cases to follow up
We all know people with RD in OCT have received their GC and EAD and AP' are also coming along smoothly.
Another NSC 485 Approval. NSC is doing very well.

Guys , do you see any general trend emerging out of latest I 485 approvals .
March 2011 is just too backlogged compared to NSC. What I'm worried about is my case being a dependent went to TSC and tied to a primary that went to NSC. It is driving me crazy with such backlog with TSC , how much longer the wait may be for the file to get picked at TSC.
Guys...just got a magical email. I-485 for me and my wife is approved!!!! I can't believe it...
A deluge of approvals on trackitt from Nov. filers - all NSC
