You should contact the live agent and try to do what @Abhatti did. Get the ticket number and email.

Got my service request number but live agent asked me to wait for 8 business days for them to respond. No need to email them as per her chat. Pl advise.

 

[Savithab]

Also since I filed my asylum application after a year would there be any issue regarding ead application?

 

[Raider1996]

You should still send your info and the service number to the emails mentioned by @Abhatti

Agreed, start working in parallel and send email

 

[Savithab]

Ok i will send out an email tomorrow. Appreciate all your help.

Any one who got EAD for the application sent second time with asap membership attached?
First application denied due to 365 days rule.

I am kind of confused here since on USCIS website it says your initial (first) ead applications based on pending asylum should be replied in 30 days.
That means second applications need to wait 365 days?

For the 2nd application (its renewal), you don't have to wait until the last day of expiry of your EAD

You can actually apply for renewal of your EAD once you have 6 months left before expiry,


The 365 days rule is for 1st time applicants who do not have ASAP or casa-de-maryland membership

 

[Savithab]

Ok. I am kind of relieved after seeing your message. Thanks again.

This is the reply received from texas service centre today.

"We researched your case and found that it is currently being reviewed by an officer. We will mail you a written notice when we make a decision on your application."

When do I get the decision?

 

[Raider1996]

I got the same reply

 

[Savithab]

When did you get that reply? Since its not 25 days yet

 

[Raider1996]

I got it on Friday. I sent them email on 16th I was getting impatient.

 

[Abhatti]

You should initiate inquiry "after" 25 days are past
