JULY 2007 filers, post your timelines !

Ok Guys, I Got My Ead In The Mail Today, So Tomorrow I Begin A New Phase. What A Wonderful Day :D

Congrats nanoboy.

Trinigirl, yours should come soon.

Thanks you were right. And yes a new phase. One step closer for me and my family. My illegal status hinder me and my family from doing things we would enjoy.

Trini

Congratulations On The Ead!!!

Girl you are great, always upbeat on this thread. Thanks. Now we encourage more people to the end.
 
Thanks

Congrats, Sooooooooooo happy for you.

The fact that yours was ordered already means that it would soon be available. For me it took 9 days to get the approval notice.

Once the approval notice is sent then you should get it in the mail the day after or two days after.

So keep thinking positive:)
 
I know what you mean

My status has been hindering me from doing what I wanted to do. I mean school work, you know everything.

I have a wife that has been supporting me and working 3 jobs and I think it was getting to her. She is so tired lately.

I can only wait to start helping her.

That will be one of my goals in the next few weeks.
:)
 
Soon

I can't wait to get my IL!!! I am going nuts waiting for it


ANYONE WTH DETROIT DO????

If there is one thing I notice is that Interview Letters come pretty fast. So yours should be there soon.

Keep your fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong like I have been doing and am still doing.

:D
 
One of those problems:)

Today, after receiving my EAD card yesterday, I went in to apply for a SS#, not noticing that the card had a typo on it.

Anyway, so I now have to send in a new I-765 form:mad:.

Now the thing is in September I called USCIS and told them that they spelled my name incorrectly. They sent me a letter saying it was corrected, and then this.

Well, I called Customer Service, and of course they told me I have to send in a new form, and here is the bad news;

1. It takes at least 30-45 days to get another card:mad:
2. If I cannot prove that the error was theirs, I have to pay another fee:mad:

I am sending them copies of all documents including the letter they sent me saying it was corrected. I even have the reference number from my phone call.

Anyway, the other side of the story is this. We (people at the SSA and myself), went ahead and applied for the SS#. What the representative told me is to go ahead and apply for the new card, and when I get it come over to change my name to the correct spelling:) and in the mean time I would get my SS# and can work etc. Hopefully...shoooooshhh, I almost got a headache:eek:.

My only other thing is that my interview for AOS is in December...so I am wondering if it makes any sense to reapply for a new EAD...assuming the interview goes well that is...Any thoughts anyone?

Do you still have the letter that was sent to regarding the typo. Can you not use that as evidence that it was an error on there behalf. All that time spent stressing over that darn EAD now this.
 
yes

I do and I have copied it to send to them
 
Big Congrats. I will be taking my lawyer. Because of my overstay they may not want to forgive that. I'm getting nervous and it's not even that time. Again I happy that you can now start your life.
 
Just in case you get stuck on name check, it would be a god idea to have that EAD handy, so yes, my advice is go ahead a get the new EAD.

Thanks trini!...I wanted to take my lawyer too because of my overstay,but I couldn't afford the extra money he was charging to accompany us.
