USCIS RETURNS VISA NUMBERS TO THE DOS
July 12, 2007 by Bradley Maged.
The press release that includes the letter from Representative Zoe Lofgren (D-San Jose, CA) to Secretary Chertoff to which I linked earlier today includes the following passage:
“It has also come to my attention that USCIS began returning visa numbers to the State Department as early as Thursday, July 5, 2007, due to their inability to review applications effectively. The Department of Homeland Security has once again demonstrated its inability to complete even its core missions. This debacle demonstrates the need for more transparency and oversight of the department’s operations and procedures.”
If the CIS returned numbers to the DOS, will these numbers be made available to those who submitted their applications in July? Or will they be wasted as the CIS and DOS stick to their guns and refuse to process any additional permanent residence applications until October 1st? I think the agencies are pondering their next move in light of the looming lawsuit and Representative Lofgren’s aggressive pursuit of the truth behind this mess.

REPRESENTATIVE LOFGREN FOR PRESIDENT!
July 12, 2007 by Bradley Maged.
Representative Lofgren issued a letter to Secretary Chertoff requesting documents related to the July Visa Bulletin fiasco. At least one congressperson is standing up for the rights of legal immigrants as it relates to the DOS and CIS bait and switch that occurred earlier this month. I link to the congresswoman’s Press Release and text of the letter to the left.
We have not had any of our July I-485 application filings returned yet. Could the CIS be holding onto them or is their mail room just backlogged? I will update as I learn more.
