It has been closely monitoring that processing challenges linked to the adjudication of long-pending Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative. Concerning the prolonged processing times of USCIS, particularly for Immediate Relative (IR) category petitions pending over 14 months and F2A category (spouses and children of lawful permanent residents) petitions pending over 24 months (approximately 2 years). These delays significantly disrupt families of U.S. citizens and permanent residents, causing hardships and delaying the reunification of spouses and children with their parents.
