hello

I need a quick help here.
my friend intends to file I 485 base on marriage to a US citizen, but he had over stay his B2 visa for like two months now. question 24 ask about " what is your current immigration status?" what is the best answer please @uscitizenfillingforspouse and others

As I read other threads, I just concluded that this time around the office is so overwhelmed with applications and run behind mostly. I for one raised SR on EAD, but I figured that delays things ever worse. I've already been schedule for the interview, I guess I'll wait that.

I'm on the movement (I guess not yet) on no EAD and straight to GC, with shorter time.😎

The EAD and AP, by definition, is supposed to let you able to work and travel while the long wait of your gc. It is to make up the mistake that USCIS being way too slow on processing AOS. Now they are also slow on the EAD and AP. I really don't know what else of excuse they have now. I paid for the thousand dollar application fee. I should get some kind of progress.

EAD delayed

My pd is 2/13, i call the customer care to complain about my inability to access my receipt directly on uscis website and ask for update on all my cases. She did attended beautifully well but at the end of the day she ask if i need to raise SR on my EAD because all the cases are on processing, which i said yes, this result in a long number to be kept . The waiting game is crazy

Oh ok. I?m guessing it?s because you hadn?t reached the 90 days processing time when you requested for the EAD to be expedited and they probably felt that you were not in severe need for the EAD.

I see. I guess I will try it again after 90 days.

[MissTz1982]

No, I haven't. Should I clarify with them? I guess severe is subjective from person to person. My PD is 2/21/2018. Any suggestion is appreciated.

Did you call them ask what they meant by your case not being severe enough? When is your PD?

No, I haven't. Should I clarify with them? I guess severe is subjective from person to person. My PD is 2/21/2018. Any suggestion is appreciated.

[MissTz1982]

Ohhh I see. Thank you! I prematurely didn't file for Advance Parole thinking I would receive my green card interview within a couple months. I didn't do the research. Can I for it now?

Yes. I think you can file for AP even after you have received your EAD. Not sure though.

[MicaAshani]

You have to have an Advance Parole to travel out of country while your application is pending. You can?t travel with just an EAD alone.

[MissTz1982]

So, question? I have my EAD and my social security card now. I haven't been scheduled for an interview yet but I would love to go visit my mother for her birthday in July. Before getting married and filing for my green card I was here on a B2 travel visa. Overstayed. Now that I have my EAD, can I travel to Jamaica to visit my mother?

[Hluu67]

Did you use a job offer to request them to expedite the EAD?

I can?t because i am working already. I said i dont want any gap of my job because my current ead with F1 visa expires soon in a month. You could try with the job offer. Goodluck to you.

[MissTz1982]

I requested expidite for my Ead too but they say my case is still in normal processing time so they dont?t accept the expidite. I still have to wait (( it is 105 days.
