USCIS has reported a significant increase in its application backlog, which has nearly doubled since 2020, coinciding with the agency losing thousands of employees last year. Despite these challenges, the agency’s Fraud Detection division has expanded, while resources are being redirected from adjudication processes to deportation efforts under the leadership of USCIS Director Joe Edlow.
Key Details:
- Application backlog: Nearly double the level from 2020.
- Employee losses: Thousands of staff members left USCIS last year.
- Fraud Detection division: Now larger than ever.
- Resource allocation: Shift from adjudication to deportation.
This shift in focus may impact the processing times and outcomes for immigrants seeking various forms of relief and benefits from USCIS. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
