Hello people!
I've been reading this forum from day 1 of my application and it's been the greatest help. I need your help one more time to see if something like that has happened to you or you might know something I can do about it.
I filed the form I-485 for Adjustment of Status on 06/15/2017(Miami,FL). I received a notice of action on June 19, 2017 and I found that my Date of Birth is wrong written.
I went to the Social Security Administration to apply for a Social Security number on 2 October 2017. They couldn’t assign me with one as the system said my Date of Birth was different than the one on my passport and work permit and they send a mismatch email to USCIS office. They told me I have to wait up to 4 weeks. The day after, 3 October 2017 I made an appointment with USCIS and when I told them the problem they took copies of my passport, ID, work permit and they said it was going to get fixed in 15 to 20 days.
On 9 November 2017 I received a job offer and I went to the social security administration to see what is happening with my application as I cannot work without one even if I have the work permit. They told me nothing has changed on their system and they send the mismatch to USCIS this time by post. Next day I went to the USCIS office to see what is going on and I talked to a supervisor that told me not only that it is my fault but she treated me like I committed fraud because of one small mistake in one part of one form. She told me nothing could happen and I have to wait until my interview for the Green Card which will be the only time anyone at the USCIS office –with authority – will actually see my file again. This interview could be no earlier than March 2018 because I filled on 15 June 2017 and even though my case is ready to be scheduled for an Interview, they notify you three months beforehand and I haven’t received that notice. The supervisor told me to call the USCIS office to see if they can expedite the interview due to the problem. I called them a minute later only to hear that this cannot happen for anyone and they don’t have the authority. So now I have a job offer from a great company and even though I have my work permit I cannot legally work without the social security.
Any suggestions? As you understand I am very sad
