Losing hope

[Natandaustin 1]

So I've had a strange day. I tried to do a walk in infopass, after talking to another tier 2 at the call center. Everyone I talked to today was super sympathetic..... But they all said the same thing: nothing we can do to help, you just have to wait for them to reprint the card. Infopass said they couldn't print anything at all to give me and all they could do was put in a service request for me- but I already have one pending so there's no point.

Apparently my 'biometrics have been reuploaded' though.... So I mean I guess they are READY to print a new card... They just aren't doing it yet!

Anything yet? From anyone? I'm getting desperate here!!!

I've had some positive progress. I think I mentioned in a previous post that I was calling my congressman. Well, on Monday, his office got back in touch with me to tell me that they had managed to get production of my card pushed through again, and I should expect it in 14 days. I checked the online tracker and my case status updated to 'approved' that day too, and my service requests changed to 'completed' the following day.

Being the worrier that I am, I decided today to call USCIS and see if there was any more progress, and to confirm that they WERE re-producing my card. The tier 2 managed to give me a tracking number, saying that my EAD had been posted today!!.So really hoping that there are no more bumps in the road and it comes in the mail when its supposed to now!!

I think the ONLY reason this has happened is because I got my congressman involved. I said to his office that 'I know you can help expedite the 90-day wait, and you might not be able to help now its already approved, but I keep getting given random wait times from officers with no one being able to accurately tell me when my card will be re-produced, and I'm at risk now of losing a job offer so please help etc etc'.

Hopefully you guys can get a similar result if you try your congressman/woman. Plus everyone should be coming up to the 'It should arrive in 30 days from production' window end now, right? so I think we can start really causing chaos and complaining that they legally should be already reprinting them etc and hopefully they'll fix this batch that went wrong

Thanks for the update, Natandjustin. I'm glad things are looking more hopeful for you. We are still waiting for my Green Card a month after approval with no news. We will try our congressman if we don't have any progress by next week, although when we tried using his services during the K1 process, he was as useful as tits on a nun! Keep us posted and let us know when you get your card.

Awesome news! Congratulations!!! So happy for you.

Yes we should try everything to get them produce & mail cards promptly. "Wait for 60 days" is really troublesome.

I read elsewhere the Green Card production is delayed too.

What happens when you're out of the country with AP and Green Card production took 2 months?

EAD/AP becomes invalid when GC is approved or produced. (not sure which)

Don't want to imagine it.....

Got my combo card in the mail yesterday! Seriously thanking the congressman for all his help as I think that's the only reason I have it!

Awesome!!!!!!! Your action earned your card.

Now my I-485 (Green Card) was approved on Friday, case status online changed to "approved" on the following Monday, still no sign of card production.

Exactly the same thing happened to my EAD/AP card.

So I probably have to wait 30 days to go to INFOPASS or congressman to request card production.

Sigh......
