How to expedite through Ask Emma
Hello,

I am wondering how people have expedited their cases through the Ask Emma function - I can't seem to get her to understand what I am asking or transfer me to a real person to chat too.

Any help on how to do this would be great.

Thank you
Lauren

Filing from home state
Hello friends,

My spouse and I are from California and got married there. We moved to east coast a few months ago for our jobs.

My USC spouse is going to file my GC petition is a few week. I am wondering if is okay to file the application from California even though we don't live there.

She still has a family and a house there. Considering the processing times for EAD and AP are 2-3 months fewer in Califonrnia, would that be a good idea?

Thank you

EAD expedited and approved
Hi everyone! I read a lot of good advices from cases shared here that help me successfully expedite my EAD. I want to share my experience so hopefully it would be helpful for others.

Location: SF, CA
Marriage based
Filing: May 9
Received: May 28
Request expedite through phone: right upon Receipt of application (as advised by my paralegal - I don't use lawyer)
Go to congresswoman to ask for assistance with expedite: June 17
Biometrics: June 20
Card delivered: July 15 (I saw it in my mailbox 4 days after, after I got notification email)

I requested expedite for financial loss reason. The application included 1) cover letter explaining why a loss (I used template shared here) 2) document supporting the loss reasoning 3) past offer letter that I couldn't take without work permit 4) emails from prospective employers inviting me for interviews. The officer at the congresswoman office told me that having an offer letter would greatly increase my chance of approval.

As many people have recommended, you should request the expedite and also ask from congressman office's help. You can do it immediately rather than waiting pass the waiting time.

Good luck!
