July & August Tracker!!!!!!With no reciept yet

I hope it was not any bad info on the ead. I have not received anything about a Ref. so far. She said it could be approval or denial :eek: WHAT, is this woman crazy, does she know that I'm going to worry, that I worry about everything, although she could not tell me what the notices is all about, as they can only see the same info as the on line system. So tell me again why do we need them. I just got an appointment letter for IL, why would mail go back to them. That's why I'm thinking they sent this stuff to my so-call attorney. I called him and he's not even in the office.:mad::mad: CAN YOU GUYS SEE THE STEAM COMING OUT OF MY HEAD:confused:

Sorry about the excel sheet, sometimes when I update the info I forget to save, thus, you guys cannot view, I will make a mental note to save after I update, that's if my head does not EXPLODE WITH ANGER sometime today. LOL, sometime I have to stop and laugh at my self, for getting work up so fast. I'm pretty sure you guys have figured me out by now. I wonder could I be bipolar? No way I'm to sane to be. LOL

I would try calling them again if I was in your shoes. Maybe if you can get to a second level customer support, they may be able to tell you what those letters are for. But I don't see any reason why it would be a denial. My gut feeling is that they are your approval letters. They can approve your case without updating the status online - it has happened to some people. Otherwise (which I think is unlikely, though) the letters would be for RFE. But I think it's too late in the day for an RFE on your EAD. No matter what it is, I hope the letters bring good news.
 
Well guys, this is the reason I will be going into business for myself when this is settled with USCIS. I am very good at getting to the right person on the phone and getting my way about 87% of the time, I will even break out in tears (LOL). Maybe is my American Accent I was forced to get in eight grade, who knows. I was able to talk my way in with an actual IO. He was very nice to me. I updated all my info once again and even my attorney's info, my husband's I-130 which the other customer service people would not let me do. My attorney was supposed to do this back on September 5 and to date have not done it. I also asked about my EAD and he said in about 5 days I should receive something it (I'll wait to see that one first). He also verified my e-mail so they can send confirmation to the update we discussed. I thanked him for his time and told him my attorney needed to pay me for work done today. He chuckled and said yes, since you seem to be doing his job. I hope I receive an e-mail in the next few days.
 
Damn it! I'm on day 81, and still no EAD!! They sent me a Request for Initial Evidence on 10/02/07 and I sent it back on 10/18/07 (Last Thursday). I still don't get anything on the USCIS website. All I get is that the case is received and pending. I'm going crazy!!!! Hehehe.

Bootney, how were you able to find out whether you're evidence was received???
 
I called the 800# then I press 1/2/2/6/2/2/1/ then I got a customer service rep. The guy sound like he might be from India (don't jump on me for saying that, my uncle's mom is from India and he sound like her) believe it or not it was a little tuff to understand him then again I can understand anyone with a little patience. Anyways, after telling him my sad, sad story about my attorney I said" I want to thank you for all your help today, you were very helpful, but I was wondering if at all possible you can transfer to a level 2 office, who could be as helpful as you, but can give me a little more information than you. He said yes and I said yes (lol) silently. He told me I don't know if you will get more info than I have but lets see. He transfered me and by gully, I was transfered, I waited about 2 mins. Then a stern voice answered and I said to myself (sh^t! I'm not going to get anything out of this one) but then I pulled myself together I ragged on my attorney and it worked like a charm. He was professional, and kind to help me out.

Good for you. It should be good news.

AH those attorneys/lawyers... Some really do not sound convincing here.

Anyway as someone said earlier, sometimes people do not get online notifications but get all the good news one day. That's probably what it is.

Yeah I'm signed up to the website. The thing is it has gotten absolutely NO updates for me in the 2 months and three weeks I've been waiting. All I get is: "Case Recieved and Pending".

It's incredibly frustrating.

I also called the 1800 number, spoke to one of their representatives, and told me that I MUST wait until the 60 days after the notice on the Request for Initial Evidence (which was 10/02/07).

I'm guessing those Additional Evidence forms DO delay your case.

Dont worry trini I believe we all if not related, can understand your frustration. You expect these lawyers to act in good faith especially if you are paying them to. Its your life and you dont want them to mess you up. When it comes to DHS...you are always walking fine lines.

be yourself:)
 
waiting for EAD

I know I haven't posted anything in a while but I have just been reading every day and finally decided to post again something with my updated timeline.
It seems most people have a lawyer- well I'm broke so I'm trying to do everything on my own :rolleyes:
I never saw online any LUDs on my cases- no emails received either, just nothing- I had to patiently wait for my RFE letter- I didn't even know when it's coming. Anyways, they just wanted a lot of paperwork from me- not only the medical which I didn't send it with all my applications back in July (the local immigrations told me while back I don't have to send it in, it's ok to just bring it to the interview- yeah, big mistake!!!), but I also got requests for more tax papers (my husband filed an extension which with my luck was about to expire the week I wanted to send everything back so I finally made him file his taxes even though he was missing one of his W-2s; yeah, some employers are just impossible to give you documents required by law :mad:, they also requested letters of employment from him and my joint sponsors, and pay stubs for past six months. I don't understand why they wanted pay stubs and letters of employment for my joint sponsors when they can clearly see that each of them have been employed with the same employer for the past 10 years and make well over $100k/yr- I mean I knew that since I'll need joint sponsors I'll have someone in the family who has great work history since my husband didn't qualify as my only sponsor. Anyways, I sent everything in last Tuesday (it was over 30 pages of material- I'm praying this is all they need), they were supposed to receive it the next day by noon but I guess they come pick up their mail earlier than noon that day and then back in the evening, so it showed they didn't receive it until 6:40pm and then stamped the green card the very next day. To my surprise I just randomly checked my status online (my receipt number for I-485 wouldn't work before) and it showed a message that they've received my RFE on Friday and my case has been resumed. I was shocked b/c from what I've read the number of days varied from person to person. Now I'm just praying and hoping it won't take more than a month to receive my EAD. I'm not even thinking about my IL- I'll stress about it once I hear something back about my EAD.
Sorry this was a such a long post.
P.S. Congrats to all people who got their EADs and ILs!!!
