Family Separated by US Immigration Delay | JQJO

Gloria García, a Mexican immigrant living in California for two decades, faces a prolonged separation from her family after her U.S. residency application was inexplicably delayed. Her case, initially nearing completion, was returned for review of an already-approved document, causing a six-month wait in Tijuana. Immigration attorneys report increased delays and stricter consulate procedures, leaving García and her family emotionally and financially strained. While her lawyer is confident the issue will be resolved, the family endures hardship and uncertainty, highlighting broader concerns about increased processing times for family-based green cards.
