Official 2016 Renewal Thread - Page 638

I know!!! But what can I do... I already did everything that is possible. It sucks 120+ days and I wasn't even scheduled for biometrics.

I hear ya, this entire shitshow is is embarrassing for all parties involved.

No doubt about it.

Just received this response from USCIS

The Nebraska Service Center (NSC) is closely monitoring the expiration dates of initial Form I-821D, Consideration for Deferred action for Childhood Arrivals, and Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization Document. We are working the renewals in the order of previous card expirations. There is no authorization to allow expedited processing of the renewals. However, if your card is a few days away from expiring and your case was filed at least four months prior we will review the case to ensure it is in proper placement. You must also have attended your biometrics appointment at the Application Support Center.

We hope this information is helpful and appreciate your continued patience.

Its all BS, take it with a grain of salt.

Yeah I know, gonna keep calling and doing everything else cause I'm not taking any chances

Well guys, it took a while, but finally got status update on EAD card production. Here is my timeline:

App received - June 2, 2016
Service request #1 - July 2, 2016
Service request #1 filed - July 19, 2016
Service request #2 - Aug. 12, 2016
Service request #2 filed - Aug. 17, 2016
Notice of Biometrics Appt - Aug. 26, 2016
Biometrics Appt Scheduled - Sept. 12, 2016
EAD Expired - Sept. 15, 2016
DACA approval - Sept. 21, 2016
EAD Production notice - Sept. 23, 2016

So hopefully, I'll receive the card by next week. It seems their system is finally getting into order and processing these things super last minute. I'm not sure if the service requests even did anything, or if it was going to be approved late regardless. Some of you guys might experience a few weeks of non-legal working status, luckily my company didn't even bother to check (didn't even check for the last renewal), so I got lucky there.

Otherwise, it's just the waiting game. After calling for the second service request, I kinda figured to just let this run its course, despite my expiration date coming up. I guess I got lucky it came in the nick of time even after I expired. So best we can do is just keep waiting, and praying that Trump doesn't win so we don't have to go through this hectic-ness again. Best of luck to those still waiting! I might not post much, but I do frequent here to keep up with news concerning us. So see you guys around.

Checked ELIS, no updates.

Christ, this is getting utterly annoying. Now I dont know what to do.

Sigh
