What is a Writ of Mandamus and its role in the immigration process?

A Writ of Mandamus is a powerful legal tool filed in U.S. federal court to compel government agencies to act on delayed immigration applications. It is crucial for individuals facing unreasonable delays in their visa, green card, citizenship, or other immigration applications. Specifically, a favorable writ of mandamus forces the government to act quickly to ensure your applications are processed promptly and fairly. It protects your rights and speeds up your immigration process.

 

Eligibility and Process for Filing a Mandamus Lawsuit

A mandamus action can be brought if there are lengthy delays in your immigration application. Here are some examples:

  • Citizenship application: If it's been 120 days since your citizenship interview and you're still waiting.
  • Green Card application: If more than one year has passed on a marriage-based green card application in the US.
  • Administrative processing: If you've been stuck in administrative processing for months after a consular interview with no result.
  • EB-5 Investor Visa: If you've invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in the US and waited years without receiving your EB-5 green card.
  • Asylum Application: If you've been waiting for an asylum interview for four years, or if you've had an interview but haven't received a decision for more than six months.
  • U Visa Application: If you have applied for a U visa and have not yet received your work permit.

In these and similar situations, if you believe you are being unfairly delayed, you may be able to bring a Writ of Mandamus.
