A federal mandamus action is a powerful legal tool used to address unlawful immigration delays caused by government agencies like U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). If you’re wondering, “Why is my asylum decision taking so long?” or facing prolonged delays in your immigration case, a mandamus lawsuit can help compel USCIS to act. This process is especially relevant when delays cause harm to the applicant and other avenues of resolution have failed.
The goal of a mandamus lawsuit is not to dictate the outcome of your case but to force USCIS to make a decision—whether approval or denial. Filed in U.S. District Court, this legal action often prompts USCIS to act quickly to avoid further litigation. At Aftalion Law Group, we specialize in helping clients navigate these complex situations through Writs of Mandamus.
A Writ of Mandamus is a specific type of federal mandamus action. It’s a court order requiring a government agency, such as USCIS, to fulfill its legal duty and make a decision on your pending application. While the writ doesn’t influence how your case is decided, it ensures that you no longer face indefinite delays, bringing much-needed clarity to your immigration journey.
Filing a Writ of Mandamus may be appropriate when your application has been pending far beyond normal processing times, and your efforts to get updates—such as contacting USCIS or seeking congressional assistance—have failed. This legal remedy is often considered a last resort but can be an effective solution for ending prolonged delays.
At Aftalion Law Group, we have extensive experience handling federal mandamus actions and filing Writs of Mandamus. Our attorneys will carefully evaluate your situation, determine if this is the right approach, and guide you through the legal process to help resolve the delays in your case.
