so our case was transferred to CSC! so that's nice. and today, at the last possible second, we got notification that g was approved for his EAD (finally) but of course it could take up to another month to GET said card. *insert sad trombone noise here*

grats on the EAD. saddens me to see you mailed out the package 11 days before me..and both colleens and i have yet to have biometrics, which means oh another 2 months for ead??>..uscis..you SUCK!

I got my green card today. Looks pretty neat, I was trying to count how many times it says my bday, there's at least 4 places! It's actually green now, but you all probably know that by now

If you look at my timeline you'll see that the EAD card didn't take as long as the 30 days.

Another thing to note is when it came (on 8.02.10) it said employment was authorized from the date of my notice (7.22.10). So in theory he could have started working then.

Sean actually has a job that he wasn't being paid for, and now that he has his card, he is getting paid for it. He works for my dad at a non-profit charitable organization so he was "volunteering" up until we got the card.

ok i'm really really pissed off...this is a vent..but in regards to my AOS.

so i've been waiting forever for my bio appt. and today i get a letter from uscis that bascially says: " you case is awaiting the required bio submittal and is currently in suspense until you complete this process"

Like NO EFFING SH1TE.

THEN, it goes on to say my information has just been entered into the system that schedules the applicants for biometrics...OMFG, like they got my aos pkg JUNE 1ST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FFS!

then it says again both of my applicatons have been entered into the system. so what..i waited this long for some kneejerk efftard to get off his a$$ and put my damn file in the gdmit computer????

meaning i have to wait another month for an appointment..and with the xfer to CSC taking 4-6 months on avg..i'll get my stuff in what..9 months from submission???? JOY watch..i'll get another RFE for a lost medical or some sh1te to boot...

why is it every step of my visa process has been hell from the beginning with all the fu@#ups?? ####### did i do to deserve this? i just want to be able to live a normal happy life..but it seems the usa just wont let me. why do i get subjected to so many damn hoops to go through since the day i was born...i'm so fed up of this.....the only thing holding me together is my husband...

At least you have got a letter explaining what is going on....I submitted the same time and still have not heard a thing!! When I started the whole K1 process everything I read lead me to believe getting the I-129f approved was the longest wait. That happened in 3 months, then I had a 6 month wait for an interview, now I have been waiting over 2 months for a bio appt and have not heard a single thing! I am getting Si to contact the senator/congressman because even if I were to get my bio appt letter tomorrow, there is no way I will be getting my AP or EAD within the current processing time.

Oh my goodness Kimbear!! You and Ashen..and I think a couple of others..have been put through the ringer with this!! What is going on in the offices?? Sheesh!! I hope you get your appt. soon!

Ashen..how did the medical and all that go?

The only reason i got any reply, is due to 4 service requests i put in. i have called them that many times in the last month alone. As it is my k1 1-129f was started in march of 2009, and i saw all the other filers get their interviews in november while i had to wait over a year for mine 377 days from day one to interview, and now this..with so many mistakes by my lawyer who i fired, the uscis, the nvc, etc. with 3 congressman involved...you'd think they would realize i'm not someone they should tick off...i just want it all over with..no wonder i decided to get my citizenship..just so i can say STFU to uscis and vote on immigrations laws and try and get something in that system fixed.

We first applied in May last year, and the petition was lost (along with the $455 since hubby didn't keep the money order receipt...grrr) we reapplied in July, so it has was pretty close to a year for us from our initial application. So I feel your pain. I don't really care how long it takes to get my green card. I just want my EAD and AP so I can get some income coming in. I also would like to visit my family before the baby is born, but my window of opportunity is getting smaller and smaller. And since I haven't worked since November...financially it would be nice to have some money coming in as things are starting to get pretty tight

Ashen..how did the medical and all that go?

Thanks for asking Joyce It... went. LOL I started a separate thread to rant about it... haha In the end though, I finally got to mail in my RFE yesterday afternoon, and according to tracking info they received it today. So now it's back to being on pins and needles checking USCIS every day to find out if they accept it and approve me.. or... not.
