=====================================================
To address these concerns, the Ombudsman recommended to USCIS a one-step, frontend adjudication process whereby applicants would appear at a USCIS local office to file applications for permanent residence and be interviewed on the same day. Qualified applicants would be issued a Green Card within 90 days. In ensuring equitable treatment, pending applicants would be given the opportunity to assume their place in this new line by resubmitting a duplicate of their original application including all required
supporting documentation without fee when presenting the original receipt.

Ombudsman's report

It will then create a huge backlog at the local office... :D
and ... the new ombudsman for each local office will have to be appointed ... :D
 
The ombudsman's report

There's a similar posting in Rupnet and one of the users responded that the line that says "people whose applications are already in process can also resubmit them without fees" is pertaining to family based immigration process and not employment based I-485

Soooooo...... should this measure be implemented pending applicants like us won't get any effect at all or might even feel treated unfairly if they allow the new applicants to just show up at the local office and get their cases decided on the same day. :mad: :mad:
 
I dont think so

I am not sure how this was concluded, but the paragraph I pasted earlier, is mentioned under "Streamlining Employment-Based Immigrant Processing" section.

Streamlining Employment-Based Immigrant Processing
=================================================
At present, non-citizens with employment skills needed by American employers are subjected to extensive processing times and potential loss of employment opportunity when applying for lawful permanent residence or a Green Card. Average processing times are a cause for concern, as these are well over twelve months. Additionally, while an employment-based application package8 for permanent residence is pending, an applicant is eligible to apply for interim benefits which generally are renewed on an annual basis, requiring the expenditure of additional filing fees with each subsequent application and perpetuating the already substantial backlog. Further, the current operational procedure employed by USCIS entails processing tandem applications and
petitions through separate workflows. This processing method is inherently inefficient as it involves expending duplicative efforts.

To address these concerns, the Ombudsman recommended to USCIS a one-step, fronten adjudication process whereby applicants would appear at a USCIS local office to file applications for permanent residence and be interviewed on the same day. Qualified applicants would be issued a Green Card within 90 days. In ensuring equitable treatment, pending applicants would be given the opportunity to assume their place in this new line by resubmitting a duplicate of their original application including all required
supporting documentation without fee when presenting the original receipt.
