The Immigration Service (USCIS) has posted the processing times for
applications and petitions submitted to its five Service Centers and its 83
District offices and sub-offices online.

This is the first time that the Immigration Service has ever posted its
processing times online. We link to all of the processing times from
http://shusterman.com/toc-sc.html

We will discuss this matter in more detail in the December 2003 issue of our
free, e-mail newsletter, SHUSTERMAN'S IMMIGRATION UPDATE.
