Hi all, 

I submitted my application last week to the CA service center. They have cashed my cheque. 

 

I have been planning on staying at home so i have never bothered to look into what happens in this interim period before I get my new GC. 

 

I have been offered my dream job out of nowhere and will need to provide employment verification next week. 

 

Does anyone know how I can get this sorted?

You're authorized to work, it's just about showing it!

You can use your expired green card (if it's expired) and the letter extending your status to show proof of legal status. If your employer participated in E-Verify you will show up as eligible.

I wanted to avoid having to explain the letter, so I used my DL and unrestricted SSC instead, per I-9 rules.

you can use your green card given not yet expired or the NOA extension letter if you already have it, they should accept that

Awesome! Its with Apple, so I'm assuming they use E-Verfy. 

When can I expect the letter to arrive? Thanks for your quick response

You can just give your SSN and show your driver's license or State ID if you have either one of those. My employer never asked to see my Green Card.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team
