More People Hired to Process Applications
I talked to a guy from Al Green’s (Houston congressman) office today and at first he was nice but came with unhelpful information. Bryan said they don’t take new cases since August 21st since the government shuts down in January. Yes, they do nothing but make sure they can complete their current case load for the next 4 months. But the good news was that he said they just hired a bunch of people for that department due to the backlogs. Because they’re scared of being sued. Takeaway, keep doing the WOM I guess. Maybe that’s what’s working, I don’t know. Maybe this is old news but I took it as good news so wanted to share. I was only talking to their office because I needed to add documentation for my writ. Either way, more people processing applications is a good thing. It’s a great feeling believing that this means my approval will come in soon. Going on day 168. Edit: My congressperson’s office is not helping any more constituents with inquiries, since August 21. The completely separate office, USCIS, is who hired more people. submitted by /u/aliensareunderground to r/DACA [link] [comments]
