That seems to be the accurate assessment of the current situation. Hope Motac stays in its course aggressively so that the waiting is no more than three months making it more attractive to the current and future applicants. Even one month ... Read More

My good Lord... I was hoping that by now some 39xxx are being worked on. That leads me to believe that the newly formed task force has caused no positive impact on reducing the processing time so far. That鈥檚 pretty unfortunate and seemingly ... Read More
