    Allaboutwaiting reacted to igoyougoduke in How to file a Mandamus in Federal Court   
    What is a Mandamus ?
    A (writ of) mandamus is an order from a court to an inferior government official ordering the government official to properly fulfill their official duties or correct an abuse of discretion. In case of immigration it deals with asking Courts to intervene when USCIS is not performing its task of adjudicating immigration petition within 180 days of filing date. Congress as part of immigration law has written the law that USCIS should adjudicate petitions at the max period of 180 days ( as per 8 USC CHAPTER 13) ( link: https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim@title8/chapter13/subchapter2&edition=prelim#:~:text=It is the sense of,days after the filing of) 
     
     
    Here is the basic essence of wom process :
     
    Step 1: Draft and File complaint against Uscis . This will be the defendant. In the current scenario of April 2023, Mayorkas is the head of DHS or Jaddou is USCIS head. Court has a format for a civil complaint and a template (example of template from a court in San Francisco https://www.cand.uscourts.gov/wp-content/uploads/pro-se/legal-help-center-templates-and-packets/General-Complaint-Packet_12-1-2020.pdf). You can download it from local court website . You are filing the complaint as a "Pro Se" meaning yourself without a help of lawyer.
     
    The complaint will need the following information
    1) Nature of the Complaint:
     
    You can write the complaint in simple English using the above template document and asking for something like below :
     
    Iam so and so( include your name ) who has filed for I-XXX( xxx can be the form ( i-131, i-485, i-751)  with  receipt number  WAC21900XXXX  and it was filed with Uscis on date (dd-mmm-yyyy) and Uscis is expected to adjudicate  hold interview within 180 days of receiving the application as per 8 USC code 1186b. You can add more information about your petition as needed.
     
    2) Second part is jurisdiction in the compliant .
     
    You can says that the court has jurisdiction cause you live there as per  8 USC 1391(e) where you are resident of the jurisdiction and the defendant is a United States officer .You are allowed to file the case in your local jurisdiction aka district  you reside if the defendant is a United States officer
     
    3) Third part in the complaint is statement of facts . This is where you tell the court why courts need to step in and tell Uscis to adjudicate the case. You are asking the courts to intervene as USCIS has not performed its duty assigned by Congress to adjudicate your case within 180 days of filing. ( see attachment X)
     
    So most complaints don’t go for trial and the us attorney will reach out to you over phone to discuss an agreement. Us attorney will call and say “ hey we won’t need a trial but we can get you a decision  on your case in. 90/120/150 days “
     
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
    Going back to statement of facts is where you write the story . The courts needs to know why they need intervene and it is for you to tell them why ?. You can say something like below 
     
    You talk about the i-131/i-485/i-751 Petition you filed .  You filed your i-131/485/751 on date dd-mm-yyyy.( see attachment 1)  you completed biometrics on dd-mm-yyyy date and it has been XX months since you filed and you have not got a decision on your case . 
     
    Uscis current processing time for i-131/485/751.is now about XX months which is 10x the time set by Congress in immigration act of 1990 as per 8 USC 1186b . Congress  has set a guidelines of 180 days for Uscis to conduct to adjudicate the petition 
     
    To close it out you can say USCIS has violated. 8USC 1186b or an immigration law section 8 USC XXXX ( read immigration law here https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/chapter-12)  and failed to adjudicate your case as set by Congress.
     
    4) Last part of the complaint is relief
     
    This is where you ask what court should do.You ask for court to enter a mandate time to adjudicate the petition. You sign the complaint at the end
     
    That is the end of complaint and your mandamus (Writ of Mandamus) 
     
    It should be about 4-5 pages max
     
    5) Attachments 
    You attach a print out of your i-131/485/751 receipt, green card( if applicable)  , USCIS processing time print out from USCIS.gov website
     
    Along with complaint you need the following 
    1) civil cover sheet 
    2) summons
     
     
    Here is a
    link for civil cover sheet https://www.caed.uscourts.gov/caednew/assets/File/JS_044.pdf. ( search your own local federal court for the correct form )
    link to summons https://www.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/ao440.pdf ( search your own local federal court for the correct form )
     
     
    Step 2: Filing the complaint with court:
     
    Once you have the complaint and civil cover sheet and summons go to the local district court,Remember it is DISTRICT court
     
    Go to the clerk at the court and tell you have a civil case to file . This has to be in person . They will review the documents . Make fourh copies of complaint and 4 copies of civil cover sheet and 4 copies of summons
     
    Make a check for 402$ for filing fee
     
    Once the clerk accepts the complaint they will take two copies of all documents .1 for court and 1 for chambers . They will give you 2 copy stamped for you (one copy for you and one backup) . You will get a case number assigned and like 500 pages of instructions
     
    So now your complaint has been filed with Court. You now have to send a copy of complaint, Summons, Civil Cover Sheet and all the instructions that Court gave you to the defendant. 
     
    Step 3 Serving the Complaint to defendants (USCIS/DHS) : 
    So now the complaint is filed with court. Once the complaint is filed . You make like 4 copies of your complaint that was stamped by the court. You also make 4 copies of the documents given to you by court
     
    So you should now have 4 copies of your complaint , civil cover sheet, summons and instructions from court
     
    Now you need to serve three people 1) US attorney in your district 2 ) attorney general in Washington DC 3) Uscis office general counsel in Washington DC
     
    Take stamped complaint , civil cover sheet , summon, court instructions and send them via usps certified mail to the above 3 officers 
     
    Address for US attorney can be obtained by calling your local us attorney office
     
    USCIS General counsel can he served at : office of attorney counsel ,dhs, 2701 Martin Luther jr ave, Washington DC, 20528-0485
     
    Attorney general of United States office can be served at : US department of justice, 950 Pennsylvania ave, Washington DC 20530-0001
     
    So now the complaint is served to three people 1) US Attorney in your district 2) Attorney General 3) General Counsel at USCIS/DHS
     
    The clock now starts for 60 window before which the District Attorney will give you a phone call to negotiate.

    Its too late for SSN application now .. needs to be done with at least 14 days remaining on the 90 day stay .. and practically it should be done as soon as the fiance enters the US to give as much time as possible for the process to be completed

    Allaboutwaiting got a reaction from dbca in I-130 question: does this count as having lived together?   
    You have lived together all this time, including the places where you have traveled. 
     
    It might get confusing when it comes to residence which for immigration purposes means: "The person's principal actual dwelling place in fact, without regard to intent. A person is not required to live in a particular place for a specific period of time in order for that place to be considered his or her “residence.” However, the longer a stay in a particular place, the more likely it is that a person can establish that place is his or her residence."
     
    I would list addresses of places where you've stayed 3 months or more and/or places where you have signed a lease for. 
     
    And regarding evidence in a language other that English, it must always include a certified translation.

    Allaboutwaiting reacted to redmist in Debate | If a Man Dates a Trans-Woman is he Gay?   
    Personally, I don't think so. I personally have never fallen in love with someones genitalia. Or thought of someone as sexually attractive to me because of a specific sex organ. Of course people have preferences but then we would be complicating the whole topic. A different example would be that theres mainly men out there, who specifically seek out trans women because they are specifically attracted to the fact they look like a woman, but have a male sex organ. That's not really a sexuality though more than it is simply a fetish - a degrading one as well to minimize somebody down to their genitalia and for ones own sexual gratification. 
    But if you don't specifically seek out trans women because you are fetishizing them but just happen to fall for a woman and find out she is trans and you can find yourself to be okay with it - then no. You just simply love somebody for who they are, a trans woman. But that's really just how I feel. ✌️

    In my view, gender/sex/sexual orientation became extremely complex matters and people are either rejecting or embracing without proper IN DEPTH discussion.
     
    It attracts so much attention and passionate reactions that I'd dare to say it has become the number one topic for politicians to use for their own obscure intentions, for scholars to exploit and for people in general to hold as a symbol of where they stand and who they are.

    And of course you can ask and I'll gladly answer: found out it existed years ago on an early episode of CSI and today I searched on it for my post and found out it is mainly nerd looking guys that are into it. 
     
    Truth is that I find really odd that I got that kind of ad, as it has always been just about all sorts of immigration, visas and lawyers. I thought there was some kind of filter on the site to deter those malware carrying ads? 
  24. Haha
    Allaboutwaiting got a reaction from AnnaDT in Possible RFE?   
    Agreed that it depends on the agent that reviews the case. Hope you're one of the lucky ones that won't get one. Could be that nowadays it is a policy not to send RFE's for such mistakes? Therefore the lack of reports on the matter. 
     
    Regarding you being a professional over thinker: do you get paid? If so, I want that job, have great qualifications. 🤣
