Finally after 150 days
Guys,
I just saw my status change to we are producing your card and will mail it to you. On the myaccount.uscis website. The other one still says received.
PD: 1/31
Biometrics: someday in Feb
Request to expedite through job offer: 5/22
Submitted evidence via fax: 6/1
lost job offer: 6/8
Got second job offer so decided to contact my local senator Kristen Gillibrand. I submitted both job offers and a letter from my second employer saying why it would cause them financial losses if I couldn't start working. If anyone needs a sample letter for this, email me at [email protected] and I can send you the one I sent. I also had to send a letter explaining my bills and situation.
6/21: Senator's office requested my case to be reviewed by USCIS
6:28: called USCIS, talked to tier2 and was told my FBI name check came back favorable as of 6/27- I believe this is the step that is causing all the applications to be delayed. If you do a google search, this check seems to be so long and tedious.
6/29 morning: Senator's office said my case was routed for expedited processing
6/29 night: We are producing your card. My job offer expires Monday
For all you who are still waiting and feeling hopeless I want to share some of the things I did to stay sane while waiting for this permit and unable to work.
1. Volunteered at my local church at the food pantry. This gave me a great sense of purpose and a routine. You don't have to be religious and I really recommend doing this. You meet wonderful people.
2. Exercise. Running outside, going for walks and to the gym
3. Read books and listened to podcasts on my field of study
4. Used an app called headspace to meditate
5. Prayed and counted my blessings daily
6. Netlfix
7. Found free things to do in the city and convinced friends to go with me
8. tried not to let this ruin my life and my summer. Always thought about the big picture
I know this is an exhausting process and I wish all of you who are waiting that you get your documents soon. Remember, this will pass and once you get your work permit/AP and even green cards, your life will change forever in this country, for good.
Lastly, if you have a reason to expedite, do not hesitate. Contact your local senator and give as many details as possible on your case. I am no expert but if anyone needs any help/information on this process, email me at the above address and I can give you my thoughts on your case. I've learned so much from everyone that posts in this forum.
Thank you to all of those who took the time to respond to my comments and cheer me up when I was feeling lost. Good luck to all of you.
