Continued Delays in I-140 and I-485 Receipt Notices for October and November filings

Due to the substantial amount of I-485, Applications to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status and I-140, Immigrant Petitions for Alien Worker, filed with USCIS in October and November, there currently are longer than normal delays in the issuance of receipt notices.

Immigration attorneys nationwide report USCIS is taking upwards of 8+ weeks to issue and mail receipt notices to applicants and their attorneys for adjustment of status cases.
