Needless to say, this comes as no surprise to those of us who have been in this outfit for a substantial length of time. Legacy INS Adjudications, now CIS, has been behind the power curve since the creation of man. As I see it, part of the backlog can be attributed to the failure to timely adjudicate cases which have been found to be fraudulent or suspect in nature. When malfeasance of any nature is discovered, close the case!!! Quit sticking it on the backburner thinking it will just quietly go away. If the applicant has been denied, locate him/her and remove them. Throw out this garbage concerning file an appeal to this court, file an appeal to that court; in many instances it just wastes time and manpower on a cause with no salvage in sight. It just buys the person more time to move around and get lost somewhere else before they have the misfortune of being apprehended.
Why does it take so long for naturalization applications to be processed? If the applicants have met all the necessary criteria and are eligible, how much groundwork has to go into the process?
There's too much bureaucracy and psycho-babble in the agency; lack of manpower and new technology isn't the problem. Lack of efficiency and intestinal fortitude is the animal. Start enforcing the regulations - either grant those people citizenship/residency or deny them and move them out!
