I've just spoken to another extremely rude tier 2 officer who said that he can't tell me why I haven't received my card yet, even after being told 12 days ago that I would have the card in hand within "10 days, tops" - I asked this officer why he can't find out more information and he hung up on me - this is beyond infuriating.

Hello -i was able to speak to a very friendly tier 2 agent this afternoon.

My EAD was also approved April 30 and has not been received. I asked her to help and she found out that the card that was produced was "crooked" so it was not sent, however there was no indication it was re done. She had to put in a request for it to be reproduced.

You gotta talk to a tier 2 agent again, because it really seems like the card machine was effed up last week of April. They don't automatically reproduce it and it might just be put aside longer if you don't ask them to help.

I have been taking their name and employee number, they normally say they when you first talk to them. I wish I had the one for the lady I talked to on wednesday, she was so rude it was not even funny. I hung up and completely had a nervous breakdown because I was told I am going to wait even more than 90 days.

On the good side, my Niece's surgery went well. She is in a lot of pain and Grumpy, but she is fine. ( It was surgery for cross eyes, so she can't touch her eyes and her parents keep telling her no. It's really hard at 5 years old )

Well, I'm at at over 100 days now. Clearly issues with cards made the last week in April. How the production of faulty cards don't go to the top of the pile when the machine is working properly again just bemuses me. Makes ZERO sense.

Glad to hear your niece is ok!

Hello -i was able to speak to a very friendly tier 2 agent this afternoon.

My EAD was also approved April 30 and has not been received. I asked her to help and she found out that the card that was produced was "crooked" so it was not sent, however there was no indication it was re done. She had to put in a request for it to be reproduced.

Hi Cattleya. Thanks for the update. I spoke to a "friendly" tier 2 officer 2 weeks ago who said I'd have my card "within 10 days tops" and it didn't happen.

Trust me, I have called about 10 times asking for them to help me and push the card into production - but they have absolutely no power whatsoever. They are in a call center. The best they can do is start a service request, which can take up to a month to be responded to.

So sorry about the RFE. That really sucks . Hopefully its an easy fix. I'm on day 92 and no response to my 75 day EAD service request either. I was told to call back tomorrow if I didn't hear anything by the end of today. I wonder if they are just gonna tell me to wait an additional 30 days when I call tomorrow? That's all they seem to do.
