Dust in the machines?

With possible CIR on the horizon, one can only hope that Congress will allocate sufficient resources to applicable government agencies.   They are currently unable to be efficient and do the job as it is.   For example, today AILA Liaison informed US DOL of continued iCERT system problems, such as the printing of blank pages and error messages that prevent access to iCERT accounts.  These are business related cases and is not good for the US economy to have delayed.

Further, yesterday it was reported that ICE's computers were down nationwide so that bonds could not be posted unless the office agreed to do it manually.   So, this costs tax payer money to keep people locked up.

In addition, wait times to speak to USCIS operators about existing cases can sometimes be 800 minutes!   This does not aid in getting cases resolved and adjudicated.


If all CIR achieves is to fix the current system, that would be a benefit..................
