    I believe that is true, but it depends on the person, background, country and other circumstances. I know for some checks it requires a full FBI and INTERPOL check which can take weeks to months (case dependent of course) Eg; It is VERY difficult to background check people from many African countries due to the lack of systems in place to do so but someone from say, the UK could be very quick given the US and UK co-operate heavily. But it is absolutely 99.9999% USCIS just being an incompetent agency if we are being honest! ha ha

    Sadly true. However things can be done in the background while being "reviewed" that we may not really know is going on - security checks etc... Funnily enough, sounds like the actual review of the 751 and evidence is the fast part when it finally happens. I saw online somewhere most officers only get to spend about 10 mins on a 751 case before deciding to approve/RFE or whatever it may be.

    Agreed! I know there are many different opinions on this but I would rather drown them in evidence than give them bits and pieces to scrutinise and potentially decide they may not like what they are seeing or want more information or even want an interview. I have seen a few attorney blogs now that say to send every single piece of evidence USCIS doesn't have yet with both names on it and let them decide how much of each type of evidence they want to use. Too much evidence is going to be better than not enough every single time. Side note - We are approaching 200 approved March 2023 cases now! making progress...slowly but surely

    They have approved about 180 March applications under the 0919 grouping now. Not a tidal wave of approvals but they are working on them now finally

    They are now working on Feb/March 2023 cases. Hopefully you are lucky enough to get approved soon. IOE0919 cases look to be picking up slowly

    They are working on March cases - IOE0919XXXXX, actually they approved 8 more today and are up to about 140 approvals now - out of over 2000...but progress is progress.

    Sounds like a new attorney is a good plan. Just one quick question, do you suspect your former spouse could have sent something to USCIS that makes it appear your marriage was fraudulent? A nasty letter doesn't usually get a lot of attention but if they had some documents that make it appear there as fraud involved it could possibly explain why you got such a sudden and unexpected result. Not saying this is what happened, but if you think its possible might be worth doing a FOIA request on your case.

    Good point. You are right, the true number is probably under 1%.

    Looking at the stats, thankfully it appears most fraud cases seem to be weeded out by the 130/485 phase. They only deny under 3% of all 751 cases so it seems the system works pretty well to catch most of it in the early stages of the game. I have a feeling VAWA either currently is or is about to become the hot spot for a major focus on fraudulent cases, I see far too many attorneys online have started advertising they can get people a green card through VAWA for nearly any reason, one has a youtube show that seems to focus heavily on it as well. Its awful because it makes it so much harder for the people who are genuine victims of abuse.
