what's one trick that I can use to see if my immigration case is going to be decided quickly or slowly hi I'm Jim hacking immigration lawyer practicing law throughout the United States out of our office here in st. Louis Missouri I was on a consult last week with a nice young man I actually can't remember his name I'm sure I have it in the notes somewhere but we were talking and I thought that I'd write down this topic to shoot a video just for you now in this video what I'm talking about is how can I tell if my case is gonna be decided it quickly or slowly and this is not scientific this is not something you'll find in any law book this is just based on my experience and sitting in hundreds of immigration interviews and one of the things that I believe will demonstrate whether or not a case is going to be decide quickly or slowly is how messy the USCIS officers offices I know that sounds crazy but let me tell you what I'm thinking so I've been in immigration interviews where there are stacks and stacks of files and there's carts full of files and there's files on chairs and there's files on the floor and all these things and I'm thinking specifically of an interview I did out in San Jose where an officer was sort of on his last ten days of working in that office he was transferring to the fingerprint unit he wanted to get out of the day-to-day interviewing and I remember there was not a place to sit there were files everywhere and I think it was because he was getting ready to leave he thought that he was gonna get to all these files before he left in his last ten days but that office was so messy that I said to myself and I said to my clients after the interview I think this case is gonna take awhile and one of the reasons I said that was because he simply had so much there in front of him and I've been in other immigration offices I've been offices in Miami and Ohio and even here in st. Louis and the officers office is very clean now certainly cases can get delayed with a clean officer or an officer whose office is clean but in my experience the mess here the office the longer your case is going to take so this goes to one other point that I always like to tell people is that so much of their delay not necessarily related to the merits of their case it's just about what's going on at the office what kind of priorities the office has different offices treat cases differently they some might do naturalization more heavily some might lean towards green cards more heavily there's always pressure from the top that's changing and that comes all the way from Washington DC so you can never read too much into it every delay is not your fault and it's not necessarily just about you but looking around an office as your interview begins or ends try to get a sense as to how organized this officers are they're on top of things or a veil frazzled and like oh my god I just got this file and rah blah blah you know there are there ways that you can tell how fast your case is going to go so be observant while you're there you know you're not just there answering questions you can sort of look around get a sense of the officer in there and their mood and their approach and it might tip you off as to how your case is going to go we hope you found this video helpful if you have questions about an upcoming interview or an interview that you have that seems like it's been delayed give us a call at 3 1 4 9 6 1 8200 you can always email us it's info @ hacking law practice com be sure to join us on our Facebook group it's called immigrant home we'd love to have you in there with us and if you liked this video please be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel or join us on LinkedIn so you get updates whenever we make videos just like this one thanks a lot have a great day [Music]
