260+ DAYS LATER, EAD WAS APPROVED!
Hi all,

I have been a lurker on this forum for months, and today I can finally share my experience to hopefully help some of you.

PD: March 20, 2018
April 21, 2018: Fingerprint review was completed.
Dec 5: Severe financial loss expedite request filed through Senator
TODAY: called USCIS to find out Advanced Parole/EAD was approved!

Today I woke up to an email from my lawyer, letting me know he had contacted USCIS to get an update on my expedite request to find out my EAD/Advanced Parole is approved!

For months my case was stuck on fingerprint review completed.. and I could not take the terrible wait anymore. I was struggling to pay my bills, my savings ran out and my mental health was deteriorating. I finally contacted my lawyer and told him my wife and I could no longer carry on this way.. and that's when things finally started moving. He contacted SENATOR Gillibrand, with an instant liaison and filed a severe financial loss to a person and the company I work for. I had to provide proof I couldn't pay my bills (bank statements, rent payments, cable bill, electric, college loan payments, etc.) and my employer wrote a letter on behalf of their company describing how much of a financial loss they took with me not being there. We had sent everything JUST two days ago.. and then magic happened, my lawyer checked up on my case to find out my advanced parole and EAD had been approved. It was such an early update that not even the website is updated yet. I was told I need to keep an eye on my mailbox for my EAD card! I cannot believe how relieved I am!!

I know this would not have happened without the help of the SENATOR! Please take this advice and contact your CONGRESSMEN / SENATOR and file a severe financial loss expedite. Provide ALL the proof you can showing you're struggling, this means anything from rent, cable bills, to groceries and gas!

I know how painful and long this process is, and this couldn't have happened without me taking the initiative and reaching out for help! I truly hope this advice helps some of you. I feel incredibly blessed to have peace of mind before the holidays. I wish you all the best.

ALSO, if anyone knows how long it may take for my EAD to get here please let me know! Thanks!

P.S. SENATOR! SENATOR! SENATOR!!!
