I guess the "step" has not taken effect yet... 60+ approval for today (month of March).  I wonder how much are they working with the other months.

Main issue is utter incompetence of this administration, after Jaddou(she is busy by attending citizenship events, can be seen on her Twitter) has took over as Head of USCIS, processing rate in all visa classes has plummeted, i posted overview in May group for last 10 months. Processing rate per month has almost halved since September last year.

 

I find it crazy that "anti"-immigraton republican administration had much had much higher processing than "pro"-immigraton democrat administration

Yes there have been 71 approved expedite requests in last 2 day. 54 were approved, 16 Denied, and one is under consideration.

Usually there is 3-4 expedites per Month, so we can assume that these are cases from Ukraine.

I'm curious, are these expedited requests at least from the month of March/April only, or are they coming from different months?

 

This explains why they have been slower this past week. Makes sense.

 

Going thru all those files looking for a couple specific cases is time consuming.

 

They should have a separate group for these expedited requests, because at this point, nobody knows if this war is going to drag other countries as well.

 

If other countries get involved, then I can only imagine the amount of expedited requests that will come thru.

 

I'm afraid it's going to be 90% expedited and 10% regular, making our daily case processing to be like 10 per day.

 

Unimaginable.

I think the focus shifted to Ukrainian expedited requests, and that is why we are seeing the slower processing rates this week.

That is just not fair !  , we still have early March filers waiting.  I am on Day 361 😤

[Mari_Justin 91]

I think the approvals are going to start trickling slowly into April now, we were around this point in February when March started seeing approvals right?

It looks like it. Even though there is 26% of March filers untouched, and a few groups skipped.

 

It is funny how little we know about USCIS ways of working and we try to decipher how they work so we don't go mad.

[KSVJ 216]

i think it's important (even if it doesn't do much) to send feedback/possible solutions/ideas/etc to USCIS:

 

public.engagement@uscis.dhs.gov

 

it's at least something within our control that we can do to. i've also sent messages through the white house website to talk about how horrific the immigration process is. i'm just spamming every government agency at this point lol

There was another one in that same group nearly a month ago as well. How much does it cost to get that lucky 😂

Looks like they approved a ton of people in the 66xxx range today already

A lot of approvals in the 66000 group. I had to run it a couple of times to make sure it was not a mistake or te app wasn't duplicating tickets. Hopefully it is not approvals of prior days.

I just ran it and checked it against the chart. 20 of the 23 are showing up as new approvals and not duplicates 🙂
