When was the last document submitted? i.e. police clearance - residency/work visa is immaterial for your employer you need that police clearance in order to process the work visa which will get you residency. Thanksgiving or Christmas is not on the radar here - Eid was. It's been over 2 weeks so it shouldn't be a factor at this point. The next big hurdle is nationality - are you being processed on a US passport or other? If other, that may be the sticking point - there are limits for certain nationalities on who gets a work visa.
I find the FBI being added to the mix might be misleading. I know a lot of Americans and no one has ever mentioned the FBI in the mix. Most require state clearance at most. But I could be wrong (not being American myself).
Another factor is the PRO or mandoob for Cornell, if he is on vacation or doesn't have the "right" connections, the process can be delayed.
