Yes, a significant uptick in applications + the employment-based and K-1 general interview waivers being removed has had an impact on processing timelines.

There was also an uptick in citizenship applications right after the election, and those seemed to be processed sooner rather than later, also adding to a backlog of other petitions/applications.

Timelines:

Actually! There is a point! To be an encouragement to anyone waiting for their interview date to come through in Seattle! And that the waiting game would be over soon for all! 😊
