According to chess-results.com, Krush performed at 2645 level by going +2 at the Baku Open. Her rating also crossed 2500. She already had 2 GM norms (the 1st was at my tournament, the Mayor’s Cup, in 2001). She should become an official GM if the norm in Baku is confirmed.
Congratulations, Irina!

I love Irina Krush!
Why the USCF not reporting this?
The USCF is not reporting this because the extremely anemic pace of updates on their website, even though they have a full time Chess Life Online editor. She is not earning her salary in my opinion, whatever it happens to be.
CL online editor earns about $80K a year with full benefits. That equals to about $1K per update.
