Hmm, at about the same time the new FAQ was pulled of the USCIS website, Eastern Pensilvania federal court in the blockbuster Mocanu WoM case (the one which basically forced USCIS to adopt the new NC-180 policy) has granted the government a Motion for Enlargement of Time Within Which to Comply With Injunctive Order. In layman terms, it granted the government a 21-day break from following the court order which is at the root of the new name check policy. During this time, the government will appeal to the Fourth Circuit court in hopes of getting a permanent stay of this order from the lower court. While USCIS seems to follow the new NC-180 memo for now, albeit slowly, who knows if the March 10 date, floated around by USCIS recently, has something to do with government hopes of getting what they want from the Fourth Circuit court by this date and changing NC policy yet again. Oh well, one thing for sure: it is never boring with USCIS, who are the true masters of building suspense and anxiety. Who needs those Writers Guild members to work on thrillers and horror movies when we have USCIS!
P.S. Oops, thanks to angeloflight/lazycis for correcting me on immigrationportal. I confused a case in eastern Virginia with Mocanu case in eastern Pensilvania. The hearings on motion of stay in the all-important Mocanu case will be held next week. May be, the FAQ was withdrawn until the outcome of this hearing is known to USCIS.
