September 2018 filers

[divemaster]

I called last friday to see if uscis received my proof for the expedite request. The officer said he doe not see anything in their system.
He informed me that he will put a request for them to see if they received the proof or not.
Today I noticed the following on my case:

On March 11, 2019, your request to have your case expedited, referral number WKD **** MSC*, was assigned to an officer for response.

On March 11, 2019, we sent a response to your request to have your case expedited, referral number WKD **** *MSC*.

On March 11, 2019, your request to have your case expedited, referral number WKD **** MSC*, was completed.


Not sure if its another expedite request or what, I had the same exact thing on Feb 25 to

I did same thing online and got this update on my email

Thank you for your request:
USCIS will review and process the request
Expect a reply by March 26, 2019
Your request ID number is SR **** *MSC

Do not put too much hope into SR try to expedite your case if you have job offer

Yeah no hope at this point ... I wonder how they pick the March 26 date, maybe it's when they expect to be done with all the September files ... I'm just going crazy I think haha

Unfortunately, no job offer (I have a job already, but wanted to change).

Work permit date retrogression

I?ve been a silent reader for a while now and just today I checked the date to submit the SR and now there seems to be some date retrogression because this morning it was September 23,2018, but now it?s September 8, 2018. I?m thinking it?s because they have not been able to process all the September filers.

My husband?s priority date is 9/27/18 and his biometrics was 11/1/18. We havent got any updates, not even fingerprinted processed for 166 days now. I?m worried that his case is stuck somewhere since it seems that everyone else has got some type of update since their biometrics.

I guess all we can do is to wait, today I have seen people with PD 1st nov got their EAD

You are right, I just checked and found the following:

4.5 Months to 6.5 Months
Based on a pending I-485 adjustment application [(c)(9)]
September 09, 2018

their processing time went fro 4-6 months to 4.5-6.5

My PD is 9/7 and hopefully that will help me getting my EAD soon.

and just checked the Processing time for my local office it went up from 11-21 months to 18-24

My wife's PD is also 9/27/18. Her bio appointment was 29 October and we got no update afterwards. Until we received the i693 courtesy letter mid February. We still don't have any change online. Until today, 3/12/2019. I received the text and email that the i485 is ready to be scheduled. That also got updated on the egov website. We were beginning to think it was a lost cause. We're still waiting but at least we know SOMEONE has looked at our file. Just hold on a little longer.

It seems that end of September filers are beginning to get some good news finally!!! I also got a text last night 3/12/19 stating that my husband ?s I485 is ready for an interview to be scheduled. I was so worried thinking that his AOS was stuck because there is an issue with his DOB on his driver?s license and the fact that he has been out of status for 26 years, but thank God his process is finally moving.

Thank you for the support!!! I feel like only people that are going through this waiting that we are all going through understand the frustration and anxiety that we each face everyday with USCIS. My word of encouragement to those who have not had any updates since biometrics like my husband, hang in there because your time is coming.

Really?!?! Unbelievable ...

hi guys!
My Pd is 09/21 and my case is ready to be scheduled since 02/11.
I?ve got a rfe on my i131 (advance parole) 2 days ago (yes, after almost 6months!!) I was scared it would delay my i765 (ead) but I did talk to a tier 2 officer who told me i765 and i131 are totally independant, so I should receive my i765 first and then a letter for my i131. I also asked him to take a look on my i765 since yesterday I was out of normal processing time, and he told me everything was ok with my file, the background check was complete and I should receive my ead in the next 3 weeks. I?ll only believe that when I?ll have it in my hands tho!!
I was also thinking, if everything looks good in my i765 file, why don?t they just send the freaking card now? Smh

They truly are making anyone turn crazy.
I?m now just wondering what could be the rfe for the i131 since you don?t have to procure any document with it.

I am happy for them but its not unfair we are waiting all this time

I am in the same boat as you guys!

USCIS Receipt date is 10/1/2018
Biometrics were complete 11/2/2018

No updates or courtesy letters. On both USCIS' new(https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/) and old (https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do) site, it still says Case Rec'd.

Is there any possibility that they stop procedure for i-765 because the i485case is ready for interview or scheduled for interview?

No, I have seen people got their EAD few days before their interview

Agree 100%, it's just unfair ... of course we're assuming that everyone background is clean and there are not issues with paperwork, etc. ... it just doesn't make any sense to me
