Just called could not get past tier 1 and they said we have to wait the 60 day mark which is 8/24/15.

Call again, and keep insisting. On my EAD, I had to insist three times and he was very mean to me towards the end. But I persisted and his response was something like "since you continue to insist for a transfer to Tier 2, I have no choice but to transfer you". I said "Thank you." He came right back and said "No need to thank me" and transferred me. I rolled my eyes at that moment. Sigh!

Oh and the EAD card for here this afternoon. Tier1 kept saying I had to wait 30 days and told me I have to call back no earlier than next Friday. I said no, I am about to lose my job and the renewal was expedited with an RFE to fax evidence to them instead of mailing it. I know several immigration lawyers and they told me that is highly unusual but it's a good sign they try to fulfill the expedition request. For a timeline, please see my sig.

Congratulations to all of the recent approvals.

Tina & Johanne / MovinOn - you're next.

thanks guys :)

Just called could not get past tier 1 and they said we have to wait the 60 day mark which is 8/24/15.

I don't understand this. What exactly happened? I called them a LOT! And every time I called, it was very simple and easy to ask the tier1 to transfer me, they were always willing to transfer. So it must be something.

I apologize if this was asked before in the thread but Potential Interview waivers are only for K-1/K-2 AOS filers right? all other cases have to go through a mandatory USCIS interview?
