Hi anyone have the contact to call and speak to an officer? I have tried to call the USCIS contact center 1-800-375-5283 but theres no options to speak to a human

Idk the number but take the option of checking on you status, it will tell you to input your case number, go by you lost your number, it will talk, go by you don't find your case number, then the machine will get annoyed and will transfer you to a life rep,. Which will also ask you for your case number, then give your case number to the representative...and that's how you talk to them.

Hi all, my wife did not apply for the AP/ EAD combo card. She has her EAD card only and we want to travel within the US domestically. I am pretty sure she is ok to get on the plane as long as she stays in the US without AP. Can anyone confirm or has anyone experienced this? 

 

Thanks in advance.

She can travel domestic with her passport. We flew last month from east coast to west coast with just her passport. They only checked the bio page.

Current timeline: 

 

8/20/19 I-485 submitted

9/16/19 biometrics

12/9/19 interview scheduled

12/15/19 EAD/AP approved

1/10/20 interview

 

We interviewed on January 10 and we thought everything went well, it's obvious we are a bonafide couple.. We did not get a decision however and were told the case is still under review.  IO said we would hear back in a few days. Still haven't heard anything back almost two weeks later, my attorney told me to wait up to a month before we should consider following up...please pray for me and my wife that everything will be OK this process has really taken its toll on us.
