Hello March 2018 filers,

 

I want to share with you that I wrote to my US Representative and Senators today to request for an enhanced oversight over USCIS’s operations.  I took up the issue with I-751 and showed the data that the rising processing times appears unmatched by the number of applications (see attached picture for a small part of the letter).  The Democratic representatives are generally tougher on agency oversights (in a sense of making sure that USCIS serves the people paying them, not all the taxpayers, because it is a 95% user-fee-funded agency).  The taxpayers money goes to the enforcement branches (CBP and ICE) of the Department of Homeland Security.

 

I made the point that the agency needs to account for how they are spreading their resources (which are paid by us).  As far as we know for I-751, our money are being spent elsewhere within the agency.

 

I will share with you it and when I have any response from our elected representatives.

Wonderful, congrats!

 

I just logged in after so, so many months to check March filer statuses and I see about 28% have been approved without interview. That's great

 

I *just* changed our address today so I hope it takes effect on time. Toy, our fingerprint date is the same so our fingers are crossed I get an update on our case too.

What surprises me the most is, it’s hasn't been up to a year that I filed. March 28, 2019 makes it a year. I guess it’s better I file for my citizenship now

Oh yeah, the moment I get my GC I'm applying for citizenship for sure. Good luck to you!

Thank you for leading the charge in trying to get us all a fairer and more efficient system. I appreciate you and all the work that went into this letter. Hope you get a favorable reply.

Anyone that had the case transferred to Texas get approved already?

Just wondering....

 

Have you pointed out that the way USCIS operates are still unclear (i.e October 2018 filer is approved while September 2017 is still waiting...), and if it should be covered for national security reasons, or whatever creative reasons they come up with, at least, congress members, as a representative of US, should be able to access the specifics and details of how they operate, and monitor how it is operating? Additionally, USCIS stops to hosting annual open-house forum, and this would be a great opportunity that USCIS invites congress members and immigration attorneys to show how transparent they operate. If they don't want to host, it will only add speculation and this is not how a democratic government agency would operate. 

 

For instance, it is still not clear how many department(s) are assigned for I 751, under which how many IOs are assigned, and how many I 751 are adjucated (both approval or denial per day), per service center, and how many other supporting teams/reserve IOs are available for I 751, and so-on. 

 

By asking specific questions to USCIS, I believe it will help many people to understand how USCIS operates in a specific way (in stead of just USCIS claiming that we adjucate cases on a timely manner, which doesn't say anything and everyone knows), and make them accountable for the delays. 

 

Of course, the chance is that USCIS will be committed to a timely adjucation while ensuring integrity of immigration system and national security, some thing along the line, but at least it will pressure them that some in Congress pays attention to I 751 and they might develop some ways to adjucate I 751 faster.

My case status cannot be found on USCIS old website and it has been this way since pretty much 2 weeks after received the I-797 NOA in late March 2018. Was wondering if anyone else has such kind of problem ?

I have the same problem. I called, they said there is no update on my case. On the new website, It says case received. The lady I spoke to told me to keep checking the website for updated and also consider the processing times shown on their website. CSC , 03/22. 

[The212 4]

My case status says: Case received on March 22nd 2018. When I called, they told me the same thing. It is strange to see many approvals while my case did not change at all since I submitted it a year ago. Does anyone have any idea what could the reason be?

Congrats on all the approvals!
