Updated 12/12/2002: INS HQ Explains 485 Adjudication Halt
According to the INS explanation, it is not likely that the immigrant community will suffer the kind of blow and mess that was caused by the CIA clearance delays a few years back which created a huge backlog. According to the INS, the current halt is created by the FBI clearance delays. Reportedly, part of the FBI clearance delays have been resolved, but the INS adjudicators have yet to see the results. It is hoped that the adjudication process of the INS is not seriously affected by other agencies' problems. Whether it is CIA or FBI, the government is the government.
