ImmigrationPortal.com and other plaintiffs have joined to file a lawsuit against the USCIS challenging processing delays of some applications for employment based immigrants. The complaint alleges that in many cases, the process for obtaining employment based on Lawful Permanent Residence status may often take up to six years. These delays have occurred for applicants in all five preference groupings of the employment-based category. Prior to filing the complaint, the plaintiffs did seek other avenues of relief. Thousands of petitions, for example, were signed and delivered to the government and legislature.

A complete copy of the complaint may be found at http://boards.immigration.com/attac...p;postid=651497

Thanks for your post. Welcome. I think this task lies with us, so you can send it to the press yourself. See also the other forums and get some ideas.

Yes. Cinta is right. Thanks.:)
 
The article in Mercury news wasn't as hard hitting as we would have expected, but it isnt bad either.

Congratulations to Kashmir and others! You finally made the news! :)

Interesting to see what INS does after reviewing the case, or if the review is going to fall on the same pile as our applications! :)
