every one on the planet is aware that USCIS has botched processing time. Unfortunately neither mexican, chinese, indian or spanish are sparred from processing time. It may help if you are in a category where there is less backlog. unfortunately mexico, india , china are backlogged big time.

 

there are people waiting decades -- fyi 

Really, decades. Thank you for your knowledge. So enlightening.

Country of origin, don’t know. Don’t be so quick to dismiss. Aren’t you aware what happened during the previous administration? An immigration attorney who gave a recent speech I attended spoke about the constant changing rules, so many he had trouble keeping up with them, slowdowns, shifts from department to department, delays in processing, etc. Maybe it extends to every country, maybe some were more targeted. But one thing is clear. The astronomical delays affected a lot of people. It wasn’t just a question of understaffing. If you looked at charts of how long processing took, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to analyze without speaking to anyone who does this for a living and this was pre-COVID. 

How long was your delay in getting the I-751 and what country is your spouse from? Our delay is going on three years and my husband is from Mexico. Trying to get a sense if the slowdown was deliberate and based on country. We have an N-400 interview coming up and I believe the I-751 will be addressed then but trying to get a sense of how widespread this was and if people who were impacted were from similar countries. I see many cases of lengthy delays on here but don’t know just how many.
