My TSC EAD nightmare
I applied for a renewal EAD from The TSC on the 4th of July, I then mailed in the supporting documentation 2 days later, subsequently received and completed biometrics appointment and all appeared to be going as planned.
I started to become concerned towards the end of August though when a check on the USCIS showed they where still processing applications from January 2015! January... I called USCIS to find out what this may mean for me. My EAD expires 10th of October. I work as clinical trials nurse / coordinator and as such cannot just stay away from work as I am responsible for looking after patients with terminal cancers while they are subjects in clinical trials and also have to make sure trials are conducted as per protocol and according to FDA regulations.
I called after 75 days and requested for expedited review. this was approved very quickly and my case was assigned to an officer who promptly sent me an RFE by snail mail! took 10 days to receive it! I quickly sent in the requested documentation by express mail and it was received on the 6th of October. since then, nothing. No further movement.
I have called multiple times, made an info pass appointment, all for nothing. All I get is: it had been assigned to an officer and awaiting adjudication. ....should happen any day now. .....you just have to wait. ...
In the meantime, I am now sitting at home all tied up in knots checking the USCIS website 1000 times a day and slowly getting frantic with my inability to respond to requests to schedule work meetings, see my patients, respond to data queries or give an answer to my employer about when I may be able to return to work...
Extremely frustrated .
