Filed EAD in May 2020, I thought I will stay in different state temporary, and filed forward mailing with usps ( using my friend’s address) . Ead approved I think July or august 2020.
Usps scanned a mail couple of times ( usps tracking ) and when local ( my old address ) post office scan before shipment, it flagged on the system “forwarding mail” that i ordered. The local post master didn’t even try to deliver. Usps will immediately ( or a day later) send it back to USCIS. Because it contained government ID. I called and called and called usps hundred times try to intercept the package ( I’m not in NYC an anymore ) and the last usps person told me, it’s illegal to forward government ID. Notice or receipt is fine but not actual EAD or GC.
I reached out to my local congressperson in NYC at that time, request for help and said please help because I can’t work without it and a week after that USCIS resent to other address in NYC ( my friend’s apartment.
the second time USCIS / usps send that kind of ID, they will request for signature. My friend wasn’t home so usps hold the mail. I take a picture of my ID and my friend picked it up in the local post office. He showed his ID ( with the correct address for USCIS package ) and brought the copy of my ID. Local post office give the EAD to him.
fiuh…never again I will move when waiting for ID like that
seems like ur forward mail option is deactivate. Now can u put on hold for the package in ur old / current address with usps online.? I know there’s option for “hold for all package” and u can pick it up in ur old/current place
