U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services on Tuesday acknowledged “significant delays” in the processing of receipt notices for recently filed applications and petitions.
Key Points:
BAL Analysis: The delays that USCIS reported are consistent with what BAL has experienced in recent months, especially since October, when the State Department dramatically advanced priority-date cutoffs for adjustment-of-status applications. Indeed, some adjustment-of-status applicants from October and November are still waiting on a receipt notice. USCIS’ statement indicates that applicants should not be overly concerned if they have yet to receive a receipt notice. BAL continues to follow the matter and will provide updates to clients as needed.
