Hi Folks:
Went to get an IEAD at SFO in <90 days scenario. Reached at 5am. I was in at 6:45. First it was hard to get past the first guy. Fortunately I had the senator letter so he gave me token unlike probably GCVij. Got to the lady on the first counter and explained to her my case. She was very cooperative and docile. She even made a copy of certain things she needed from like copy of driver's license.
Anyway told me to sit and my name will be called. Called my name after 30 minutes and told me to go upstairs to get my IEAD as the photograph guy opens up at 8:30 am. Sort of happy but was not believing it to be too good to be true.
That is where I got jinxed. She came back upstairs called my name and said "Sir my supervisor has rejected the case as it is not more than 90 days". I pleaded with her and she said I am trying to be stubborn. She was nice again to get me back to the counter. Another woman came and I explained to her case she said you have to go by the 90 days rule but I see where you are coming from. If it was me I would have given you the card.
Anyway then came the supervisor who just was the only moron I could encounter. She was really loud not ready to listen and then told if you do not go I will put this in your record. I pleaded everything like you plead for your life (what do I tell myself at that point???) anyway she mentioned i could still work at the reciept notice as it is 90 days after which you have to show an EAD. So anyway the whatever she says I was doomed...
But one thing is for sure whatever happened may have some positive things... That's what I believe. Whether someone takes it or leaves it is purely personal.
I hope it helps the folks.
