USCIS UPDATES PROJECTED NATURALIZATION PROCESSING TIMES

According to a USCIS Press Release:  “U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today that it continues to make steady progress in reducing the significant number of naturalization applications it received last year.   USCIS now anticipates naturalization application processing will average 10-12 months nationally by the end of September 2008 – a substantial improvement from its estimated average processing time of 16-18 months first announced last year.”

FRAGOMEN LAW FIRM SUES DOL

Most immigration lawyers and many of nation’s largest employers have been waiting for the other show to drop ever since the Department of Labor announced through a Press Release that it would be auditing all PERM applications filed by the Fragomen firm, one of the world’s largest immigration law firms. 

Well it has finally happened, the firm has filed a 41 page Complaint against the agency in the US District Court for the District of Columbia.  I’m sure there will be plenty of news regarding this latest development and I will be posting details here as they become available.
