US immigration backlog tops 11 million as Trump slows USCIS processing
The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) processed fewer immigration cases and recorded a backlog surge in the second quarter of FY2025 (January–March), according to new data published on the agency's portal. This is the first major dataset released since the Trump administration returned to office. USCIS completed 2.7 million cases during the quarter—down 18 per cent compared to the same period in FY2024, when it had processed 3.3 million cases. From the previous quarter alone, completions dropped by 12 per cent. Meanwhile, pending cases climbed by 1.6 million, pushing the total backlog to a record 11.3 million. The last time pending cases came close to this number was over a decade ago. More than 34,000 cases unopened For the first time in over a year, the agency recorded a non-zero 'frontlog'—cases that are yet to be opened or assigned. As of the end of Q2, over 34,000 such cases were pending at the front of the pipeline. The data showed that this slowdown is already affecting key immigration services. < Form I-129, used for employment-based temporary visas including H-1B and L-1, saw a 25 per cent increase in median processing time quarter-on-quarter, and an 80 per cent rise compared to Q2 FY2024. < Form I-90, used to replace green cards, saw the sharpest jump: from a median wait time of 0.8 months to over 8 months—a 938 per cent increase within just one quarter. < Form I-765, for work permits, had its own crunch. Initial applications pending rose by 87 per cent since Q1. The total number of pending I-765s (including renewals and replacements) crossed 2 million, nearly doubling from under 1.2 million. The net backlog—cases delayed beyond USCIS standards for Form I-765 alone went up by nearly 181 per cent. One category, however, moved faster. The net backlog of I-129s dropped by nearly 75 per cent from the previous quarter, although the number of individuals under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) programme continued to decline, falling by over 8,000. 'We will pine for a functioning system' Charles Kuck, founding partner at immigration law firm Kuck Baxter in Atlanta, said the shift was expected. 'The Trump administration has told USCIS to slow down processing of cases. Predictably, the system has quickly developed massive backlogs. By the end of 2028, we will pine for the days of a functioning legal immigration system because it will effectively not exist by the end of the Trump term,' Kuck told Newsweek. He added that the growth in backlog was '100 per cent predictable' given the new approach. 'Starting with the staff reductions ordered at the USCIS (which is funded by user fees, not tax dollars). Followed by seeking 'volunteers' from USCIS to assist ICE in enforcement efforts. Which then leads to the administration's effort to find fraud in every application, slowing down processing times,' said Kuck.

Mindtree founder Subroto Bagchi has donated hundreds of crores but a Re 1 SBI cheque is his 'biggest wealth of life'
Mindtree co-founder Subroto Bagchi called a symbolic Re 1 salary from the Odisha government the greatest wealth of his life. (Image: X/@skilledinodisha) In a world where success is often measured by wealth, titles, and accolades, Mindtree co-founder Subroto Bagchi has reminded us that true wealth lies far beyond the confines of a bank account. In a deeply emotional and thought-provoking post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Bagchi shared a picture of an old-fashioned paper cheque issued by the State Bank of India. Its value? Just Re 1. But to him, it's priceless. The cheque, was not for services rendered to a corporation or startup. It was his last salary as Chief Advisor to the Government of Odisha for Institution and Capacity Building—a role he served in for eight years. For each of those years, Bagchi accepted a symbolic salary of Re 1, never seeking financial reward for his public service. 'What is the biggest wealth in this one life that I would never ever part with?' Bagchi wrote, reflecting on the journey. 'For every year of the work I did with the government, the deal was that they paid me Re 1. For the 8 years out there, I got 8 cheques and this one here was my last salary drawn.' Bagchi is best known as the co-founder of Mindtree, a globally respected IT and consulting firm. Over the years, he has earned accolades for his leadership, vision, and philanthropy. But despite his financial success—he and his wife Susmita have pledged hundreds of crores for causes like cancer care and skill development—it's this small cheque that he treasures most. It symbolizes his belief that service to one's people can be its own profound the years, his journey has taken many forms — from a private-sector professional to an IT entrepreneur, an author of business books, and eventually, a public servant. One of the defining milestones of his career was co-founding Mindtree in 1999. He began my tenure there as the Chief Operating Officer, and over the course of next two decades, he rose to become the Executive Chairman. His time at Mindtree came to a close in 2016, and just a few years later, in 2019, the company was acquired by Larsen & Toubro (L&T). Following its eventual merger with L&T's IT subsidiary, the new entity emerged as LTIMindtree. In 2016, following an invitation from Naveen Patnaik, then Chief Minister of Odisha, he embraced a new chapter in public service as the Chairman of the Odisha Skill Development Authority. During the pandemic, he also served as the government's chief spokesperson on Covid-19, helping communicate crucial information during a time of crisis. — skilledinodisha (@skilledinodisha) The post quickly went viral, striking a chord with netizens who praised Bagchi's humility and values. 'Your gesture is a lotus in the mud of public virtue—its fragrance best left unannounced,' one user wrote poetically. Another commented, 'We need more people like Subroto Bagchi in Odisha who are successful in their fields and committed to contributing to our beloved state in whatever way they can.' Many described him as a rare example of ethical leadership in an era increasingly dominated by personal gain and performative virtue signaling. 'True selfless service, sir. A rarity in today's world. Thank you for your great service to Odisha,' read another comment. Bagchi's Re 1 cheque may be small in amount, but it carries the weight of a powerful message: that public service, when done with integrity, is itself the highest compensation. It evokes a time when symbolic salaries were a mark of honor, not just optics. In an era where monetary success is worn as a badge of importance, Bagchi's decision to treasure a Re 1 cheque over all else is both radical and humbling. Subroto Bagchi's journey from a clerk in Odisha's Industries Department to co-founding a billion-dollar tech firm and returning to serve his state for Re 1 a year, captures a rare arc of ambition anchored in humility. His decision to value a symbolic cheque over corporate millions reaffirms that leadership is not about power, but about purpose. ( Originally published on Jul 06, 2025 )
