No green card YET, 10 Months after filing AOS

[Honey&Bee 1]

Hi Guys!

We got married in July, and filed for AOS / EAD / Advance Parole in August. I got my EAD and AP approved in October (valid for a year), and I currently have a job. However, my Adjustment of Status has not yet been approved. I'm concerned because a lot have been approved who filed WAAAAYYY after we did, but were not transferred, and my EAD/AP will expire soon... We have been to the Indiana USCIS office to follow-up and they said it's still with CSC, and they have sent follow-up, once we got a letter from CSC that they will approve within 45 days, but it has been 4 mos since we got that and still no movement...

Anything we can do? Please help... Thank you!

Wow. I have no advice, unfortunately, but I'm sorry this is happening to you. 10 months is a ridiculous amount of waiting.

Do another infopass appointment. Keep following up!

Not a K-1 process or procedure moving to the AOS forums.

Definitely time to call in a congress person or senator to assist in finding out what is going on.

Agree completely!

Thank you for all your comments.. We've been to Indy USCIS, like a thousand times, using Infopass... still no GC...

But they told us they have been receiving the same issue from several people about CSC being so slow... So, I'm not alone..

Does anyone know how we contact Congressman/Senator to help us out?

Thanks!

Look for your congressman's website, and there is usually a "contact us" form where you give briefly explain the situation and give some contact information and they will call you back after a few days..

enter your zip code to find your congressman, you have only one for the district you live in. You'll get a link to their web site and contact information will be there. You'll need to fill out a form and mail or fax it to them so they can act on your behalf.

Select your state to find your senators. You have two that will cover your state.

And yes they have been slow for many, but for you they are beyond slow. You can see my wife has been waiting for her's almost 7 months now. We'll put in another service request and get a senator and congresswoman acting on our behalf next week if we don't get a notice.

You could also try emailing CSC directly, the email address is here:

Also you could try the USCIS ombudsman

So NOT right you have waited this long!!!

You NEED to get in touch with a congressman!! I PM'd you a link and some info!!

The links that Lainie B posted look like good avenues to try as well!!!

Good luck hon!!

10 months! wow..I am creeping up to an 8 month wait for my AOS. They received it October 31st, 2011. Mine was also transferred to CSC. I just don't understand how some people get it so fast! I can understand a bit of time differences but it's like there is zero structure in how they file them. Hang in there!

[BennyJax 5]

We've been about 8 months now too and I just sent an email to my congressman to see what he can do. Will reply if I hear any good news.

Thanks you guys! We're sending the request to the congressman today! Oh my gosh! This is really crazy! I don't know what's going on.. now we may have to renew my EAD/AP since I'm working and it will expire in October...

They sent me a reply with our recent visit to the USCIS Indianapolis, and they created a service request for us... The letter from CSC said that they will act on my application in an 'expeditious fashion', but still depending on 'resource constraints'.. so they mean, when someone is available - AND I DON'T KNOW WHEN THAT WILL BE. Frankly, I'm not even sure if the letter is telling any truth in it.. but I'm hoping it is... I'm already checking the status everyday, since we received that letter, but I dno't see how they're acting in an 'expeditious fashion'. LOL

Thanks guys, keep me posted! and I will with mine!

Its the same form letter they've been sending to everyone who opens a service request lately. We got the same thing a few weeks ago, and still no green card. Does this look familiar? "committed to processing this workload, and will be making every effort to adjudicate your case in an expeditious fashion as soon as available under our resource constraints"

Which translates to your case should be in a box, we're not going to check though because we're busy. Leave us alone and eventually we might find your case and do it.
