EAD - Resent due to address issue
Hi,
I just went through a great ordeal to get my EAD card back. So wanted to share my experience hoping it might be of some use to anyone in a similar situation.
7/8: EAD approved
7/10: Out for delivery
I had requested for an address change with USCIS and also did mail forwarding with USPS as I was moving. (Remeber to never do this as USPS doesn't forward EAD cards)
7/10 Afternoon: EAD sent back
7/14 EAD moving to new destination
7/21 EAD delievered to Less Summit MO - Card distribution facility
Meanwhile I contacted USCIS several times and it was of no use. They can only start a case inquiry when the card status changes to EAD returned back to USCIS. So i suggest waiting till that.
7/24: Case status changed to EAD returned to USCIS. Initiated a inquiry with Tier-2 officer. Timeline given 2-3 months to resend the card.
7/25: Contacted my local congressman and sent an Email. I was quicky contacted by one of the officers, did formalitied by filling a form and gave in all the proofs of my case.
7/30 Case processed by USCIS.
8/1 Card returned back to my new address.
My suggestions:
First never request or change address during this process.
If unfrtnately the card is returned wait until its recieved by USCIS. Your efforts of contacting USCIS is futile untill the case status changes .
Contact USCIS and open an inquiry immediately once the status changes
Contact Local Congressman office and request them for expedition.
Keep your hopes hight. I have also read something about CIS Ombudsman which would be a last resort in case all the above efforts fail.
I hope this helps. If you are facing a similar situation - keep your hopes high!
