This is rare & unusual to happen. Getting US citizenship use to be quick. No delays. Getting legal status is another thing.
Not at all. The standard route is 1 year refugee/asylee, then auto green card, then 5 years residence, then citizenship. Add all the bureocratic delays, etc, it takes about 7-10 years.
Hey, at least these guys are doing it legally.
USCIS has a lot of work to do. If the amnest bill passed, processing times at USCIS were expected to jump to 8-12 years per case.
