USCIS 2019, Q2

[alexpop13 173]

Looks like USCIS published the report for Q2. You can check it out HERE

 

I-751 RECEIVED: 42,392

I-751 APPROVED: 53,060

I-751 DENIED: 1,481

I-751 PENDING: 242,455

Looks like 90,58% of the I-751 processed were approved.

This is how I calculate approval rate:

 

Approved   53,060

Denied          1481

Total Adjudicated = 54541

 

53060/54541 =  97.2% approved

Actually you are right. I calculated forms received with forms approved, YTD

 

97,28 approved for Q2.

 

YEAR TO DATE:

APPROVED: 95,361

DENIED: 2771

95361/98,132 = 97,17%

NOT BAD

Whatever the case, it seems like they are adjudicating more than what they are receiving. That is a welcome sight.

YTD:

Total Adjudicated = 98132

Approved =                95361

Approval rate =  97.2%

If you then assume that 75% of denials are later appealed and approved, then the approval rate climbs to even higher........thus, I contend that I-751 should be eliminated completely.

Or should be more strict. For instance in Canada if you're married less than 2 years when you immigrate, and are no longer living together in marital union after 2 years (or don't have kid) then you are denied PR status and must return home. They eliminated the divorce waiver aspect.

WOW!!!!   That would certainly push the denial rate up a few points.......at least here on VJ......

That would be really hard, and I hope that will never be the case for US. Not sure if the marriage law is different in Canada. I'm in the middle of a divorce (no fault State), and there's literally nothing I can do to save the marriage although I still want to be with my husband... If that is the case in the US, I would be devastated losing my loved one, *and* having to leave the country where I've established a career and life.. 

 

And.. Yep, 97.2% is pretty good. I think Q1 or 20418 Q4 was around 95%.

I like statistics.......I would like to see the stats regarding I-751 divorce waivers here in the US.......

Personally I wouldn't live here without my spouse. But I am from Canada so I can assume that people don't want to go home for a variety of reasons.  I can always restart a career. I did it moving here afterall.

Agreed with everything but the children aspect. I don't think just because someone doesn't have kids for 2 years after getting married, that means ill-intent. There are lots of reasons to not have kids for more than 2 years. Some couples can't conceive for years.

Yeah, no. I lived in the US for 8 years before becoming a permanent resident through marriage AOS, all of it legally, and divorced before ROC. Are you saying I should've gone home?

And some do not want to have kids, or are too old, etc.  Those marriages are no less valid.

Legally resided with work visa or DACA?
