Wei v. Mayorkas, et al., No. 21 Civ. 6002 (AKH)

Dear Judge Hellerstein:
This Office represents the government in this action in which the plaintiff seeks an order
compelling U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) to adjudicate his
Refugee/Asylee Relative Petition (Form I-730) and Application to Register Permanent Residence
or to Adjust Status (Form I-485). On behalf of the government, I write respectfully to request an
on-consent extension of time of three months to respond to the complaint (i.e., from September 20
to December 20, 2021). I also respectfully request that the initial conference presently scheduled
for September 10 be adjourned to December 21, 2021 or thereafter.
The extension and adjournment are respectfully requested because USCIS has approved
the Form I-485 and is in the process of scheduling an interview in China regarding the Form I-730.
This is the government’s first request for an extension of the deadline to respond to the complaint
and to adjourn the initial conference. The plaintiff consents to these requests.
I thank the Court for its consideration of this letter.
Respectfully submitted,
AUDREY STRAUSS
United States Attorney
