I think it's more like 61.000 will get their green cards in next THREE years.
I agree with you
My math skills are not that great; however, in their explaination (in the article's link above), they were a bit confusing. I think it boils down to this:
Normally (before Real Id) we were supposed to have 10000 asylees adjusting a year, so in 3 years that would be 30000 adjusted anyway, according to the old law. Then, they are supposed to adjust 31000 in the next 3 years because they didn't before and that is why they got sued. The settlement is going for that --->
30000+31000=61000 in the next 3 years. Right?
I am not sure if my explanation is any better, but I am actually trying to understand it myself.
The most intersting thing I read in the article is that they pointed out that, in the new law (Real Id), they don't have a specific number of how many asylees will get adjusted a year. Until they put their act together at USCIS, real changes could take forever to happen. The lawsuit/settlement will keep the ball rolling for the next three years or so. Hopefully.
