John P asked:
I am a US Citizen and my wife is an MD/PhD Scientist who has been in the USA for 9 years. We married in Dec 2005, and filed for her Green Card in February 2006 and had our interview in June 2006, when we were told the FBI hasn’t completed their background check yet and it could take several months to several years. I heard that Chinese Scientist are having to sue the Federal Government to get action and it seems to work. I was told by my senator’s office (Maria Cantwell’s Office) to wait six months before suing. They were the ones that told me that law suits seem to get some action in getting the background check done.
