Adjustment of Status - I-485

If you wonder why St. Louis field office is so behind in
processing I-485 applications, you may gain some
insight from two highly interesting articles
published in 2011 by St. Louis-Dispatch which is one of
the United States' most respected dailies:

http://www.stltoday.com/news/opinion/columns/the-platform/editorial-complaints-about-the-st-louis-immigration-office-warrant-investigation/article_1ce6f29c-4b23-5e02-a836-ce2e7aa0e84f.html

http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/st-louis-immigration-office-is-criticized/article_e9e5dcae-519d-50e3-ac73-97eb6d7d20ef.html

If you, by any chance, cannot open the above links, you can also locate the
articles, using the following key words:
"St. Louis field office criticized"

Finally, I would like to believe that St. Louis field office is much different
than depicted (hopefully biasedly and inaccurately) by the two articles
and that the office employees are working their butt off to process
all applications fairly and speedily.

Cheers!!!!
