Changes in Immigration Policies because of Obama

[Ben Brackett 0]

does anyone think the process will become easier with a new president? I know he has loose ideals when it comes to border security and immigration and I sure would love to be in the states by July 4th.

Don't hold your breath. Changes in the administration usually have little impact on the workings of an organization like USCIS. Even if the incoming secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano decides to make USCIS more efficient (it is not like she can get any increase in funding for USCIS especially in this economic environment), the changes she puts in place will take years to reach us waiting for our approvals.

Changes in funding for USCIS would come through increased fees, as it is a fee funded agency. I wouldn't expect any meaningful change in the kind of immigration we talk about here.

It's all depend on us to push for change, the new uscis director is appointed by the new administration

if we complain upon our senators and congressman and also office of ambudsman, uscis director should answer

questions about why his administration is not efficient enough because there is no way in the world that cases

can be pending for years. every case should have a timely manner

remember that uscis has worked hard last months to push for more citizenship cases beacuse of election need

but when it come to family petition still the adminitration working slow on them

but like i said, it's all depend on us how we can make family reunion a priority and try to push this way

i think that the new administraion should work on these issues by making uscis more efficient with family petitions

like they did with citizenship case
