Hi guys,
Long time lurker here - I included myself on the spreadsheet but I finally decided to make an account and post on here.
My timeline:
Application received by USCIS: 7/20/2016
Biometrics: walked in on 8/29/2016
Expires: 10/17/2016
I was already contacted by HR and was told I will be put on administrative leave until I can show proof that my I-765 has been approved.
I have reached out to NILC but I was told to contact them if I have no action on my case after 120 days of pending. I have reached out to my congresswoman and a congressional inquiry was made last Friday.
I applied for AP last year in November, and traveled to my home country in January 2016 for two weeks for business purposes. I was EWI and was issued a I-94. I included that I-94 on my form, along with a copy of my AP document and a copy of the I-94 printout. I'm not sure if this is is/will cause delays on my case. I've only spoken to one tier 2 rep, and he just told me to call back when my case has been pending for over 105 days. I've asked for a few tier 2 rep call backs, and never received any calls back.
This is extremely frustrating, and it kills me that a government agency has this much control over my life.
