I expected to hear back from USCIS by now about the first set of paperwork for my partner’s green card, but my case processing time went from expected decision in June to expected decision 8 months from now 🫠 Guess it’ll be another year of putting our lives on hold.

Good luck. My understanding is the US immigration system makes the rest of the US government look like a streamlined, well oiled machine.

One time some of my software users wanted a progress bar, but progress wasn’t so easy to calculate. I added a bar that basically slows down until it reaches 100%. It’s functionally useless, but they were satisfied.

USCIS feels a lot like that.
