I'm so sorry! I know it's so frustrating to wait and to see everybody approved and not you :(

We are kind of the last now! very late!!

Me it's my 75day today! I'm going to call this afternoon I think, hoping I'll have someone nice on the phone.

I have a question: in the past, I never succeed to get someone on the phone at USCIS, always automated voicemail...Does someone know what to do to get someone, a code or sth...??

Thanks, L&D... i hope we hear something soon.

To get someone on the phone you have to hit the option to request a service on a case you already filed, then you hit the option for being outside the processing time, and then eventually you get someone on the phone. you are calling the 800 number, right?

Thank you for your support, i am hoping to get the EAD as well just in the mail as I don't get any updates on it online. Good luck calling the 800 number, hopefully you get a friendly officer.

EAD and AP card came in the mail last night: 12/15/08- Yippee

Intimacy, like charity, begins at home. If we cannot be intimate with ourselves, we have no way to bring to intimacy with another person.

Intimacy with ourselves takes time. We need time for rest, time for walks, time for quiet, and time to tune into to ourselves. We cannot completely fill up our lives with activities and become intimate with ourselves. Nor can we just sit quietly indefinitely and become intimate with ourselves. We have to have the time and energy to be our lives and to do our live in order to establish and intimate relationship with ourselves.

Surprisingly, as we become intimate with ourselves, we discover our connection with others

Intimacy....In/to/me/see...

haha I may need to book a ticket now to go to wherever u are located :)

we applied for the credit card to get a display case but they didnt have it in stock at all after they rang it up and told us the merchandise isn't available until after 3 weeks or so... but it's a good thing... we needed the cash now since I am out of work.

Hi friends.

No great news on my AP or EAD so far.... :angry:

I was surfing the CIS ombudsman's website yesterday.

I asked ombudsman for his/her help when my K1 petition was pending forever.

Since I found bunch of similar cases on VJ and elsewhere, I thought there may be something related to EAD pending over 90 days on their website.

Then, I actually found an article about EAD pending more than 90 days.

If your EAD is pending more than 90 days, please read this.

http://www.dhs.gov/xabout/structure/gc_1221837986181.shtm

The post is from Sept. 2008, so it is fairly new.

When I asked for their help for my K1, they could not get back to me fast enough (my petition was already approved when they got back to me.).

But, regarding this matter, they have an e-mail address specifically for EAD pending over 90 days. (For K1, we had to fill our forms which are used for all the other type of Visas.) (Other articles show that they have been warning USCIS regarding their inconsistency on EAD processing.)

So, you may want to follow the direction and try it.

They want the name and number of the operators who are telling you bullshit. They also want the time and date you called and talked to her/him. "The law" requires USCIS to process EAD within 90 days. On the article, it says you are supposed to hear something regarding the service request within a week.

Anyway, I am not sure whether this helps us or not.

But, let's hope it works and give a try. Let's tell them how USCIS has been treating us. :star:

The only way to change this for us and for the others on the way is to tell them what is going on. :star:

Yea... We need cash, too. :crying:

There obviously not the recession but the depression in my bank account.... :wacko:

I am gonna go and get a CD case (tower) for my husband.

He has tons of CDs, but no place to store them and he wanted the one from IKEA.

So, it is gonna be a Christmas gift from me. :star:

Everyday since I got laid off last weeK I went down to haunt my postman... and today I got a piece of mail with something "hard" inside... I thought it's my plastic card.. but then it's just an Ikea credit card that came... bummer! It's driving me nuts!

I am going to go to IKEA today. lol

Do u wanna come with me? hehehe.

haha I may need to book a ticket now to go to wherever u are located :)

we applied for the credit card to get a display case but they didnt have it in stock at all after they rang it up and told us the merchandise isn't available until after 3 weeks or so... but it's a good thing... we needed the cash now since I am out of work.

what are you going to get from Ikea?

Yea... We need cash, too. :crying:

There obviously not the recession but the depression in my bank account.... :wacko:

I am gonna go and get a CD case (tower) for my husband.

He has tons of CDs, but no place to store them and he wanted the one from IKEA.

So, it is gonna be a Christmas gift from me. :star:

Hi friends.

No great news on my AP or EAD so far.... :angry:

I was surfing the CIS ombudsman's website yesterday.

I asked ombudsman for his/her help when my K1 petition was pending forever.

Since I found bunch of similar cases on VJ and elsewhere, I thought there may be something related to EAD pending over 90 days on their website.

Then, I actually found an article about EAD pending more than 90 days.

If your EAD is pending more than 90 days, please read this.

http://www.dhs.gov/xabout/structure/gc_1221837986181.shtm

The post is from Sept. 2008, so it is fairly new.

When I asked for their help for my K1, they could not get back to me fast enough (my petition was already approved when they got back to me.).

But, regarding this matter, they have an e-mail address specifically for EAD pending over 90 days. (For K1, we had to fill our forms which are used for all the other type of Visas.) (Other articles show that they have been warning USCIS regarding their inconsistency on EAD processing.)

So, you may want to follow the direction and try it.

They want the name and number of the operators who are telling you bullshit. They also want the time and date you called and talked to her/him. "The law" requires USCIS to process EAD within 90 days. On the article, it says you are supposed to hear something regarding the service request within a week.

Anyway, I am not sure whether this helps us or not.

But, let's hope it works and give a try. Let's tell them how USCIS has been treating us. :star:

The only way to change this for us and for the others on the way is to tell them what is going on. :star:

Nao

Wow, Nao that's great stuff there, thanks!

And sorry Enhjørningen and anyone else I missed...I feel your pain too! :crying:
