April 2017 AOS Filers

[Ninatica 56]

Hello dear all!

 

I really hate this "Waiting Game" specially for EAD/AP... When we submitted the paper work for K1 Visa we were able to track the process on the USCIS app, I mean the process flow/change of status was available. 

 

Today my EAD/AP reached 90 days, so I called USCIS and they opened a case # to track it. They asked me to wait 30 days more for resolution ... if not I must call them back on Aug 12 😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕

 

I do not have SS#, so I cannot ask for driver's license. I cannot work either, I.can be a volunteer on different places I know, however where I live driving is a need, all the places are far away from home 😦

 

Have a nice day

hey, I'm not sure your city, I'm in VA and I got my ssn before i married and I got my driving liscence after I had my FP (797c).  Have u gone to those offices and ask? I went to DMV twice, and the second time I bought my 797c and other documents from uscis they asked for,  the officer in dmv said as long as I have the finger print letter they can approve me. Hope this help.:)

Quick question: I sent my response to a Request for Initial Evidence last week that was received and signed by USCIS this past Saturday, July 8th, as shown by USPS tracking I had on it. Any idea roughly how long I should wait for the case status to update with the acknowledgement that they've receipt my response or are there any other actions I can take? I'm a bit scared because the 87 day response deadline is on July 20th. 

Hello it took them about a week to update for me.

Hi guys, I have entered America and was starting the AOS petition. I am finding the petition really confusing. Can someone please guide me? and is there is any example of the new 18 pages i485?

I honestly think you need to read the I-130 and I-485 instruction. I am sure your spouse can speak and understand English by this point. If you want to avoid delays and RFE, you must read the instruction, most of forms on the web are for the old forms, which you can't submit.

I agree with @ahas44's advice. There is also a grace period for the old forms. If you can send them all before August 25, you should be fine too.

Howdy everyone I would like to share some information on my SR done today 75 days since PD 04/28/2017. So I put in a SR for my EAD today online on USCIS website and got this message below:

"As of July 12, 2017, your inquiry about the status of your Employment Authorization application, referral number SR11******************, is currently not assigned for processing."

 

Has anyone here experience anything like this? Please share your experiences.

I put in an SR to expedite my EAD last Wednesday, and then received an email requesting proof of a job offer be faxed to USCIS this Monday. I have also filed an expedite request with my local congressman (inc. A release form; cover letter; job offer; NOAs for EAD and AOS).

 

I would suggest calling USCIS to raise your expedite request if you have not heard back from them within 5 business days. It seems to be preferable to speak to someone and get a receipt so that your request is in the system.

Hello Nancy,

 

I am in Houston, I went to the SS Office and they were not able to process my request since I have got married 4 days before according to my certificate ... they asked me to present either my EAD or GC to provide me a SS# 😣😣

 

I should have asked for SS# before getting married 😫😦

It did that to me too at two times n then I realize that I need to have all the information at hand then quickly fill it out n submit. The last part where it ask you who is filling out this form just select petitioner n then submit. Remember u have to do this very quickly. My experience!

used your trick and worked. Thank you.

I would suggest contacting your congressman coz your EAD has been in processing for over 90 days which is over the normal processing time and most congressmen help out with federal processes that take longer than the stipulated time...

As I submit my post I check my status again and they've received the RFIE! What a relief.

Hey everyone, 

 

The USCIS processing time has been updated. As of 31st May 2017 they were reviewing the 18th of March cases for EAD! I hope we all receive updates on the EAD over the next couple of weeks!
