Or longer. I have seen people who filed for Naturalization in 1996 and were still waiting for the background checks to complete. From INS to CIS and yet Immigration was still aware of their cases and when requested would send updates indicating it was still pending.

At this point the only thing that is going to take care of this - which amounts to a backlog - is for an overhaul of the system. Which all current indications point at happening, the earliest, in 2010.

Mind you, mohamod, mohammed, muhamad, etc . . . are not the only names with problems. Ali, Imran, Saaed, and many other popular, male, Islamic names can be indefinitely detained.

For what it is worth - I have also seen someone with a perfectly American name - with all family members with English names - have the same problem. So it is not limited to Islamic and Arabic names - they just happen to be the most common.
