Hi folks,

I will be shipping out to army BMT next Tuesday and I'd like to know how and when to get the N-426 form signed in order to submit the whole application.

Thanks a lot in advance

Filed on Jan 22nd 2020 and also still waiting 😕 best of luck for you! I hope you get an interview soon 

Thanks for your words!! would you be interested in joining our NYC filers group? we share our experiences and help each other on whatsapp! 

Hi folks, I filed on Dec 4 2019 from Queens and unfortunately haven't been scheduled for an interview yet. Has anybody from queens been called for interview recently?

Hi folks, if you belong to one of these areas and filed in 2019 please feel free to share your time lines and experiences.

Hi folks, I wanted to know if any December 2019 filer from Queens has been scheduled for an interview. My PD is Dec 4 2019 and I'm still waiting to be scheduled for an interview. Any info/experience will be really appreciated 

Hi folks, I was wondering if any of you already got their interviews scheduled. 

It's been almost a year and I have not heard anything yet 

Good luck to you all !!!!

Hi guys, I wanted to share some news. After responding to a RFIE on June 8th, My case got updated today and it now says "Ready to be scheduled for an interview". Hope this leads to better news soon  

I have a question with respect to consular processing. If I am here in America and waiting for my AOS, can I switch to consular processing? I have already a work permit but no legal status on any other visa.  

Just wondering if anybody who received their EAD cards got their SSN already? 

Hi forks. I received a RFE letter asking for the most recent tax documents. I filed taxes with my wife on April and we ended up owing some money to the IRS. We have not been able to pay them yet and we are afraid that if we send the transcript to USCIS they are gonna see we still owe that money. Do you guys think it is safe to send the documents anyway? should we be worried about denial or rejection?

 They asked for tax documents, not an employment letter. Exactly what did your wife send before in regards to her 2018 tax return? 

if you do a new I-864, your wife will say unemployed. That is her current status and an explanation why doesn’t help or fix anything. You have a joint sponsor because she already didn’t qualify, right?  So nothing has changed really as she is still not qualified on income.

 

You're right. We had to get a joint sponsor due to her low income. I did some research and I found out her employment status did not really matter since we included a joint sponsor already.

I would like to ask you another question. My wife and I filed taxes for the year 2019 but we ended up owing money to the IRS. We are gonna sign up for a payment plan soon but then we received this RFE asking for the tax documents for the most recent year. Do you think If I send them the documents showing that I still owe money they are gonna reject my application?

Her unemployment means you need a joint sponsor.

We do have one. He's okay with everything. it's just my wife who is unemployed this time and I don't know if we should submit a written explanation about this matter

I received a RFE letter asking for the most recent tax documents from my US spouse and a new I-864 form in order to continue with my case. Due to corona virus, my wife got laid off from work and she can't get an employment verification letter at the moment. My question is, should we go ahead and submit the I-864 without the employment verification letter? should we write a letter explaining why she is unemployed?

Hi Folks, I need your opinion on this. I got the update "Request for Initial Evidence Was Sent" this morning and I know it could mean a lot of things. I mailed everything they needed since the beginning and me and my lawyer carefully reviewed every document. I am confused as to what they still need from me.  

Quick question guys. I don't remember if I answered "yes" to the question on the I-765 form that asks if we want the SSA to issue a social security card. Is it possible to inquire that information to USCIS by phone? Unfortunately, I don't have access to my entire application at the moment and I don't know if the SSA will automatically issue me with a card soon.

Hi folks, for those who already received their EAD cards. Did anybody go to the SSA to apply for a SSN? if so, did they assign you a ssn right away?

I got the update "New Card Is Being Produced" a few minutes ago! Do you guys know how long it takes to get the card?

Hi folks, I just got the update "Expedite Request Approved" so I contacted a tier 2 rep and he told me an officer already got my files and is currently reviewing the case. Do you guys think there is a chance that they approve or deny it any time soon?

Try to mail the evidence! Every time I tried to fax uscis kept telling they never received it so I mailed and that work better I think 

could you please provide the physical address you used to send the documents? thanks a lot 

Hi folks, I requested my ead to be expedited and I tried to fax the required documents but for some reason, they were always rejected. I assume that phone line was either busy or not working. Do you guys know if I can mail/email the documents instead of faxing them?

Hi guys, I have requested my EAD to be expedited but unfortunately I haven't been able to collect/send the evidence they require. Do you guys think this situation is going to delay my current application?

Thanks a lot

Hi folks, I am confused as to how I should file taxes with my wife. Recently, I was told that I must file taxes jointly with her but my income was very low in 2019. On the other hand, she was issued a 1099 which basically means she has to pay the IRS for the income she earned in 2019. should I file as married but separately so she does not add more debt to pay to the IRS?

How is everybody case going so far? Any updates?

I guess December fillers should be receiving updates on March and April. Not completely sure about that but that's what my lawyer insinuated!

Do you guys think it is safe to travel domestic with a pending AOS? I won't be able tho get any state ID until I get my EAD

The 90 days for the EAD is different from your AOD timeframe, As for the EAD Expedite, you would need a strong reason for requesting the expedite.

oh so it's 90 days after the biometrics appointment then?
