Folks,
I know many of you are anxiously waiting for your approval and So Iam.
This is the current situation now in BCIS :
They have started looking back backlogs from August'01 to Nov'01 I-485 Pending Cases. They are approving those cases. And it is very true that BCIS is transferring most of EB1 cases and other country cases (where registration deadline got completed recently. They are putting more scrutiny on these cases). Backlog reduction team exists in BCIS.
At the same time, some of the Sr.Officers are undergoing training class for 2 weeks from July 8th on basis of the new memo/new procedure release by BCIS head to speed up/reduce backlogs. This is the cause for the processing time to jump from 18 months to 19 months. Hope things will get straighted up again from Next week or so. But then who knows what BCIS does??
