Last rumor is that the government is working hard to find a solution and not shutdown. They have a re-run on our local radio news-station in New York.

And all the people that need to file ROC? they lose their jobs and green cards and lose their status because USCIS closed and didnt work on applications? I doubt it will affect USCIS the backlash would be HUGE for people who need to renew and their lives depended on 2 incomes.

I want to believe if there is a Government shut down, USCIS could also be shut down since it's a Government institution.

Oh, I would really hope that they wouldn't shut down USCIS. It seems like social security and passport applications were put on hold when this happened in the past, so it seems likely that visa applications would as well. This process is slow enough already! How frustrating it is to deal with these things.
