Nightingale reports as sent to leadership (refiled)

This is a second version of an earlier request, filed to ask for Track 1, USCIS's simple processing track. It asks for each Nightingale summary or compliance report (tied to Nightingale v. USCIS, a federal lawsuit over USCIS delays in releasing immigration files) as sent to FOIA senior leadership and the National Records Center front office, from December 1, 2025 on, with the cover messages and distribution lists.

Why it matters
These records would show what leadership received about compliance, and when.

These figures are more than 30 days old. They may not reflect what has happened since Oct 17, 2026.

Extension invoked
USCIS told the requester it would invoke the 10-working-day "unusual circumstances" extension the law allows (5 U.S.C. 552(a)(6)(B)). What an extension means
