Hello! I need some advice. In the beginning of October, I received the RFE for I-693. Basically, I needed to have a new physical exam and I was supposed to submit my response by Nov.1 2022. In my town, there is only one civil surgeon at an urgent care clinic who is authorised to sign I-693 forms. So, I scheduled an appointment for Oct. 14. I had my physical exam and within two weeks time they were supposed to call me to invite to come in and finish the paper work. They never called me. I called them several times, visited in person and they kept sending me back saying that they would call whenever everything is ready. Now, I am past the deadline and I still don't have my paperwork. I feel frustrated and don't know what to do. I don't want to submit my application for a green card again, pay again and wait for at least a year again. I messaged to USCIS via my USCIS account and explained the situation. Also, I submitted the bank document indicating that I was at that clinic and paid for the physical exam. Additionally, I hope that I will be able to obtain some paper from the clinic in which they will confirm that the delay was not caused by me. But I don't keep my hopes high considering the way they treated me before. Do you have any ideas how to best handle my situation and whether it is possible to avoid submitting my GC application again? Thanks

UPD: Just after I complained about my EAD card, the status of my application changed to "Card is being produced". YAY! (I wonder if USCIS officers visit this site.....:)))))I am so excited that I will finally be able to get a new driver's licence, open a bank account and apply for a job! Hope everyone else won't have to wait for it long.

So sorry about that :((( Thanks for letting me know. I feel better knowing that I am not the only one in this "boat". Hope we all receive some good news soon.

Is there anyone who hasn't received their EAD card yet? I am frustrated and annoyed. It has been 10 months already since I had applied. I know I am still within the processing time range, but It just feels very unfair that a lot of people who had applied 2-4 months later and they have already received their EAD card. I am not even talking about GC interviews. I know that with my Sacramento office I should not expect anything this year:(((
