October 2018 Filers

[Ste]

Hi everyone, I applied for my green card on the 24th October 2018. I still haven’t received my combo card. I have flights booked to go home in August for my sisters wedding. I’m starting to get really worried. I’m in San Francisco is there anyway I can speed this up

Have you tried looking at your local congress persons website to see if they offer an option to help with immigration issues?
Others have had success by doing this. I have tried calling USCIS to expedite my case but they dont respond or let you know anything.
Its generally just a wait and hope scenario. Not all that much we can do to push things along.

Thanks ste I will have a look at this. Really starting to annoy me now. This is just taking too long.

I think you will get it soon. Mine was October 2, I received my combo cards on April 25. Good Luck.

Hello guys,

Another update on my case:
After the EAD card in production I had received the update of picked up by USPS and another update with tracking number.
Also, and more important, I had received a RFE that I have to handle in person the I-693 to my local office, it doesn't stated a exactly time like the regular interview letters, It just says from 7 am to 12 pm to handle the close envelope from the surgeon.
I am applying as a mother of a US citizen. Does anyone have had a similar experience? Does that mean I won't have interview? I am confused.

Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

Yes, no interview for you!

That said I can't wait to be part of the 210 day club of people without interview scheduled... You heard that USCIS?

Today I received an email that in my case was a changed status: Intial Review

On the website the status is still: T"case was transferred to local office and they have now jurisdiction"

Does anyone knows what this supposed to mean? I guess the next step should be the interview! Right?

From the great house of NATIONAL BENEFITS CENTER

”CASE WAS RECEIVED” 197 DAYS AGO
”CASE IS READY TO BE SCHEDULE FOR AN INTERVIEW” 90 DAYS AGO

God this is so frustrating it’s like waiting for a new episode of Game of Thrones! Except it’s game of freaking EAD I HOPE THEY GIVE ME AN UPDATES SOON

Hello everyone!

still waiting for my EAD card, like many of you here, it’s good to know I’m not the only one waiting!
Hoping to get it in the next week or so, i’m Almost on the 200 days mark, which is super frustrating!

good luck to you all!

recieved date : October 24th
biometric :November 26th
case is ready to be scheduled for an interview: March 18th
no news since (also no I-693, is it strange? )

What's your timeline? This could be good. If they transferred to the local office it means they could be scheduling interview date soon. Did you check status in both https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/ and https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/mycasestatus.do to see what they say?
Sometimes they update one more than the other
