All the friends here,

I am wondering when people mentioned the case touched, how did that happen?

I called up the USCIS but there is no choice for me to talk to a person.

My walk-in BIO was about one month ago. Now it's pure waiting. The status online said that the case was received and pending.

But I didn't see any REF yet. Maybe that's just the normal status for waiting.

Anyway, how to confirm with USCIS if this is REF but the letter got lost? Or just simply talk to a real person on the phone about this case?

I would like to here any inputs from you guys.

Thanks.

EAD should come between a month and a half or two months after you had your bio.

Don't let the choices chose you, chose the choices that you want.

We check for "touches" because we have too much time on our hands. :blush:

It's like watching water boil, though. It doesn't speed up the process to know if your case was "touched." The official stuff comes in the mail, good news or bad.

Remember the SSN. Some employers many not hire you without SSN. According to the SSA its up to the employer to you hire or not.

Look for stores they normally don't bother too much.

Don't let the choices chose you, chose the choices that you want.

How does the whole DL thing work anyway... I never figured out why you needed the EAD for it... :wacko:

The EAD in Conjunction with the SSN is needed to verify your legal status in the country. Thats why DMV or MVC issue licenses only valid for as long as your EAD is valid or if you have a CGC for those 2 years instead of 5 years.

This generally varies from state to state; however most states are requiring the same thing: EAD or GC and SSN. This is to stop all the illegal inmigrants from getting a valid DL and then looking for work as taxi drivers (ex:).

NJ uses a 6 point system

1. Primary Doc: EAD or GC or Military ID

2. Secondary Doc:Any Federal ID/college enrollment/Civil Marriage Certificate

3. Proof of Address: Utility Bills/First Class Mail from any Federal/State/Local/Lease

4. SS Card

This is just some of the many things one can use and like I said: its for NJ only.

Don't let the choices chose you, chose the choices that you want.
