  • San Francisco field office 2018 filers here!

    Hey everyone! Just wanted to start a fresh thread for San Francisco and/or Bay Area filers that filed in 2018. It seemed like the SF office was moving along in the interview process but now it seems it’s slowed down again.

    I’m DACA filer, category C-09 married to a USC. I was able to fix my EWI status when I was granted AP originally under DACA where I was able to visit my country of birth and came back with inspection.

    Currently waiting for my interview date and also waiting for my EAD/AP combo card renewal. Seems like that’s taking a little longer than the first time around too. My timeline is in my signature.

    Even though this wait is excruciating, I find it cathartic to be able to relate to other people in similar situations on this forum. I personally know someone who got their GC recently after being in a similar situation as me... so that gives me hope! Anyone else wanna share their experience? I also want this thread to continue as people get their interviews and approvals...
    specifically people who are in or around the Bay Area. That way we can possibly gauge a timeline for this backlogged SF office. Weren’t they supposed to get some relief by transferring cases to nearby USCIS offices?

    Please share your story! Thanks and good luck to us all! <3

            yes, I called USCIS to expedite my EAD due to my OPT ends in the middle of project.
            I called ombudsman and congressmen for help.
            I got it within about 5 weeks however USPS loss my mail so I called ombudsman for another help to have a replacement from USCIS. I got the replacement one within 2 weeks.
