It's a two year process. It all gets weeded out.

The refugee they quoted had spent 3 years in asylum in Jordan. Do you think the vetting process may have started before the nes story broke?

"The regional refugee coordinator at the U.S. embassy in Amman, Gina Kassem, said that while the 10,000 target applies to Syrian refugees living around the world, the majority will be resettled from Jordan.

“The 10,000 is a floor and not a ceiling, and it is possible to increase the number,” she told reporters.

While the resettlement process usually takes 18 to 24 months, under the surge operation this will be reduced to three months, Kassem said."

I guess you'll have to ask the refugee coordinator.

Does this process include the vetting or does is some of that done while they are awaiting the resettlement process? I don't know the answer, but I'm not going to assume that this 3 month figure means that some of the vetting has not already occurred. It might mean that, but I don't know it.

There's a vetting process before they are even assigned a country to be relocated to, then that country does more if they wish.
