The quantity of backlogged immigration applications and petitions that have been processed, the aggregate number awaiting processing, and a detailed plan for eliminating the backlog.
The average processing period for immigration applications and petitions, disaggregated by application or petition type.
The number and types of immigration-related grievances filed with any official of the Department of Justice, and if those grievances were resolved.

the Secretary should undertake efforts to guarantee that concerns regarding the quality and efficiency of immigration services are addressed after such effective date.
