    My brother is applying for his GC based on asylum. He had sent it to the Texas service center. It was later transferred to National Service Center. Just this week he got a letter calling him for an interview. What could this interview be about? Any comments will be appreciated.

    Faster Processing might be on the horizon.

    I was reading the blog by the USCIS Acting Director and according to him, they are hiring and training more adjudicators for faster processing, improving technology. My only concern is it is only focussing on naturalization and not other cases. I hope they process my GC quick.

    wow!!

    I can believe I got my EAD within a month of applying. I really did not need an EAD but decided to apply since it was for free. I think they would have processed even quicker if I had not delayed my biometric appointment by a week. I hope they process my GC quickly when I apply next year.
