I think the most frustrating part of the DOS wait is the complete lack of a clear picture of where the decision can be made for any individual case. One thing is to wait a specific number of months, but waiting for a decision that can be made tomorrow or in a year is very difficult. If the cases were processed according to the submitted dates, we at least could have some estimate, "OK, DOS is now working on cases submitted in October-November 2022," but this is not true. We have cases that were submitted much earlier, i.e., January 2023 getting decisions and cases that were submitted in January 2022 getting decisions.
