| I-485 Adjudication delay |
|
Can you please read this sentences from the following website and comments on it.
The point is: USCIS requires to adjudicate I-485 application in a reasonable time. If not, this is considered to be violation of duty and is a sufficient basis for mandamus relief.
[Moreover, ยง 555(b) requires that agency matters be resolved within a reasonable time. A violation of this duty is a sufficient basis for mandamus relief. See, e.g., Sierra Club v. Thomas, 828 F.2d 783, 797 (D.C. Cir. 1987).]

The fee for an adjustment application recently was increased to $905 from $305 for each applicant. See 72 Fed. Reg. 29851 (May 30, 2007). USCIS made clear that the reason for the increase was to insure that the adjudication fee covered the full cost of adjudicating an application. Id. It is untenable for the government to charge a $905 fee for adjudication costs of each adjustment application and then to argue it has no duty to adjudicate a properly filed application. |
