What this lawsuit can ask for
- An order requiring USCIS to adjudicate the case
- Relief asking the court to lift the USCIS pause or hold as applied to accepted plaintiffs
- Relief from indefinite delay or unlawful withholding where the facts support it
- A court-supervised answer instead of endless silence
Important: this kind of lawsuit normally seeks a decision, not guaranteed approval. The legal problem is often that USCIS is not deciding at all.
