VSC->CSC: EAD,AP issue
Hi maverick1976,
I had to move from East coast to West coast due to the job,
although working for the same company (and while reporting
to the same manager). At the time of my move, both my EAD
and Parole were close to expiry. My attorney felt that I
had to apply for my renewal of both EAD and AP
in CSC (instead of VSC) and he did so too.
Now here is where the things became complicated (eventually
out of hand). Our application for the renewals was filed
in August 2003 (in CSC) and we still have not got our respective
EAD and AP. Here is how it went
a. CSC saw that our 485, EAD and AP were initially filed
in VSC and promptly transferred EAD to Vermont.
b. Then we received an RFE for AP which we provided but that
too met with the same fate eventually - to Vermont it went.
c. Now the online status check page shows that EAD/AP
was received "here for processing on Feb 20 2004". And I
dont even know what that "here" means. And as you
can imagine, calling BCIS was of no help.
It appears the intial receipt date which should have been
August 2003, seems to have been reset to Feb 2004. Now,
I have no clue (and so does my lawyer) as to how to deal
with this situation and how long the wait is gonna be ... ?
But the larger question is "should the EAD and AP be filed
in CSC because I moved from east to West coast or would
just a change of address suffice ?"
Also the lawyer has filed for another application to move
I-485 processing from VSC to CSC and I/he have no idea
or update on what is going on that front ?
In other words, I am in a big mess.
Any suggestions or ideas will be much appreciated.
Can I apply for an interim EAD and/or AP ?
I understand u came across a similar situation ...so ur lawyer didn't advice u to tansfer the app. to CSC like our lawyer did?In wonder if our lawyer is doing the rt. thing...
Thank You !!
