Yey Beth! Now sit back and exhale....and perhaps crack a bottle of wine!

Jessica

Hey Adethony,

My husband's EAD was approved same day as yours, and no further touches either, but I wasn't worried. Let's not worry and think this is normal

Jessica

When it rains, it pours! Congrats to all for the wonderful news...I'd love to add ours, we received notice yesterday on the production of the EAD card! Yippee!!!!!!!

Jessica

Congrats Beth and Billy...sorry have been out of the internet world...thrilled to bits for you!

Jessica

good luck Beth!!!!!!!!

Congrats to you guys! Great news!

Hi everyone, for those who haven't heard anything and filed Mid-May, I think I can bring some hope. We got a touch on July 10th (but took a few days to find out!). Our first since the biometrics a month ago....a bit of relief I must say. Bernie & WizandDorothy, must mean good news coming soon for you! Seems like things are happening chronologically by when applications were sent in...

Jessica

Fabulous! You must feel great!

Jessica

WizandDorothy,

I feel your pain. We've never received a touch except the biometrics and transfer letters. If we don't hear something soon I will REALLY start to worry as our filing date was May 14

Jessica

I will hold you to that!

Bernie,

What happened at Biometrics? They actually did not let me go in with my husband, I had to go to a separate waiting room (weird). Anyway, hubby didn't report anything strange.

Can someone remind me if touches are noted via email OR on the web site? (not that it matters since I've seen nothing).

Back to worrying again...but keep us updated Bernie! Congrats to all getting movement though!

Jessica

That girl....yes we are nearly in tandem. Makes me feel a little better, like we BOTH can't be lost in the system.... Knock wood

Jessica

Yey Katie that's great. Hope good news is just around the corner.

Us-nothing. Would someone touch us please?! Lol. Despite biometrics nearly a month ago, not a single touch. I know the system can be iffy, but still. A bit concerned

Jessica

Congratulations! Thats really good news, and after 2 months. Not bad at all!

Jessica

Great news on the touch Katie...its something, right?

Mel, you are taking advantage of your free time, that's great. I would be the same. Hubby goes up and down, sometimes very positive, other times really bummed out. Some people handle things differently I suppose. He helped me with our huge 100 ft x 100 ft garden and is painting my mom's house which has been taking lots of time. He needs to be busy. He also worries about providing for his kids who are still in SL. But I agree, look at the bigger picture!

Anyway, have a great fourth to all! Govt offices closed Monday? Booo.

Jessica

Thanks everyone for the welcome...as it turns out hubby didn't get the offer in the end...really devastating, as it went so far. He's really struggling at the moment as its been hard and bureaucratic to get into society here for him. He does have his SSN and just got his temporary driving license (we both thought he'd get the real thing, another disappointment). He left behind a good and prestigious job in Sierra Leone only to be jobless and broke here and can't do much but sit and wait for who knows how long until EAD and a job (which also is difficult at the moment). Its hard also for him to accept me as a breadwinner (I've just got a short term consultancy to pay very good money).

Sorry to get off on a tangent, that's where we are at the moment.

Hope someone getw some good news soon!

Jessica

Thanks Katie and Sifa for your help and advice.

This site has been really great...wish I had known about it throughout the K-1 process! Perhaps would have reduced some of the stress then

All the best

Jessica

Hi BethandBilly,

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions, much appreciated. We did indeed receive the NOA so I should just stop worrying and hope they are dealing with it at the CSC!

If my husband is offered this job, then we will try and make this INFOpass appt although I thought you had to have been in the system for at least 90 days to do so. If I can't, I will call our local congressman, because this is so incredibly important for our money situation. I will look up the thread you are mentioning.

Thanks again!

Jessica

Hi everyone,

I wanted to join a little late if you don't mind! Glad to have found this forum and wait with you all!

You can see our timeline in my signature. I have a few questions, hopefully someone can answer for us!

1-Our case was transferred to the California Service Center. However, we've yet to receive a notice that the case was received (we've only got the notice it was transferred). I've seen in others timelines that they were alerted that it was also received. This worries me as its been 19 days seen we received that notice that it was transferred, and it was our last communication. Should we worry that this is lost or a big delay?

2-All these 'touches'. We haven't received one (which I presume would be emailed to us [yes we did sign up for that feature]). Does that mean the case hasn't been looked at at all?

My husband just completed a second job interview at an organization he really wants to work for and things look good. We're both unemployed so this would be the answer to our prayers if it works out. However, receiving the EAD in good time is stressing us out majorly right now.

Wishing everyone all the best! Thanks in advance!

Jessica
