Reasons they could give, no budget, no personnel, many multiple reasons. Let's patiently wait and do what we can do to keep up with our lives. Many of us have called them, and we always get the same lame responses. It sucks, but eventually they will get to each of us ( most likely in less than 6 months) From previous posts, I could tell USCIS is getting irritated with all our calls, maybe we should just leave it to a mediator like NILC, or other nonprofit to handle the situation in a more political way. Let's contact them instead. Better patiently wait, than loose everything us Dreamers have fought for so far. This is election year, many things could change in the future for us, in a good way, or bad way :/ Let's be prepared!

That's no way to live. Just when you're feeling normal again. Ayyyy~

Also, leaving from here without AP is pretty much a one-way street if you don't have a reasonable and timely means of adjusting to PR.

I got a text saying that my case was updated at 1:30am and got another one at 2:00am.

It says my card is in production now.

My Daca is still not updated.

I am hoping that it will be approved soon as well. It's kind of weird, but I do remember that same thing happened when I got my 1st DACA.

Hopefully, I will see the actual EAD card by the end of the week.

I applied April 27th
Bio May 18th
Exp: September 15th

Now to see if I can get it expedited, again...

Anyways, got some relief today, HR said I can work regardless of my expiration since this is not my fault, they just want updates.
