I got the exact same today and no email or text, has anyone gotten a completed SR and did get emailed?

My EAD expedite SR response was mailed, no email or text.  The response was a RFE substantiating my claim of severe financial loss.  My evidence was a job offer letter.

Thanks, I haven't requested expedite, mine was just a case inquiry about our case being outside of normal processing times.

 

i tried calling and they really can't tell you anything other than call back in 30 days, I should've asked for a tier 2 agent - anyone know the best way to get to a tier 2 after going through all the automated options?

@Mimzy - for your EAD, yes go ahead and put in a service request (online its called case inquiry and then choose case outside of normal processing time, maybe try calling instead of doing it online though, online seems to be taking forever to get assigned).  Did you already reply to your RFE?  Keep us posted and good luck and God bless

 

edit - oh and thanks for updating us on the new April date for NBC EAD from c9 cases processing 

Yes! The RFE reply was received by them on June 9th, we replied a day after we received the RFE in the mail.

This is where I got the information from:

I was also confused before by the date that you pointed at but after researching I believe that date is for appointments at the Field Office. According to their description below, I believe that office not only works on the specified cases but also takes appointments from people who might need to go there for information, etc.

Now it says our SR for the EAD has had a response sent, and that it was completed, but we haven't received any email or text messages 😳

Please keep us updated please! Crossing my fingers for your EAD to change case status!

Yes you can totally apply for AP separately, there's just a filing fee you'll need to pay for it since you didn't file together.   Make sure to include all the relevant info with your application and the two passport photos, message me if needed

Thanks so much, you're so kind  Off to do that this weekend

Mimzy was talking about NBC (national benefits center - also called MSC - Missouri service center) and their processing dates specifically for EAD which is now processing cases as of April 1, the local field offices will vary depending on which office you check.

 

also I have a small update!

 

• 08/11/2017
  

  On August 11, 2017, your inquiry about the status of your Employment Authorization application, referral number SR**************MSC, was assigned to an officer for response.

 

Our SR - It got assigned today, we were supposed to have a response by August 10, one day beyond that.. it got assigned to be processed, will keep you all posted 🙏

When did you put your SR in?

  On August 11, 2017, we sent a response to your inquiry about the status of your Employment Authorization application, referral number SR*******MSC.

• 08/11/2017
  

  On August 11, 2017, your inquiry about the status of your Employment Authorization application, referral number SR************MSC, was assigned to an officer for response.

   

  OK....does anyone here ever finds this 'RESPONSE' anywhere? They just tell you a response was sent and no one in this forum has ever found it  Correct me please if I'm wrong.

That's the same message I had on my account and today, I got my approval notices for my EAD and advanced parole in the mail!!!

 

No change online and I never got an email.  Keep checking your mailbox!

hello folks / @papasmf / @MAYNYCFiler2017, I haven't received my EAD yet but just writing to update...

 

yesterday night -- yeah, I usually check mails at night unless I'm expecting something :P, I checked the mailbox and found a physical mail (dated 08/04) which says "Your case is currently under review. You should receive a decision or notice of other action shortly." then following day (08/05) my EAD case status changed to New Card is being produced, like I also confirmed last Saturday. this response was what I was looking for and asking @MAYNYCFiler2017 last week. it appears it was just delayed.

 

then today, I received an Approval Notice (by mail again) dated 08/05 that says "We (USCIS) have approved your application for employment authorization" and that they will mail the EAD separately.

 

hopefully, we will all get good news in the coming weeks as things now seem to be moving somehow.

 

will update you guys again when there's any change.

WOW... really?

Congrats Lupigirl, I am excited EAD is starting to flow in for us May fillers, in few days you get your combo card, yay

 

May I ask when you put in your SR and when did you get the approval notice in the mail...

Edited August 12, 2017 by Asakelove

[ohsnapitsginnay 14]

Ours says the exact same thing as of yesterday with the inquiry being assigned and a response will be received soon.  The email response was basically that it's still within regular processing time, and the response given to our congressman was exactly the same....

 

It will be awesome when it shows up!!! And congrats on yours showing up unexpectedly!

I raised my SR on July 18th but never heard anything until August 7 when I got those same updates as you did.  

 

Yes there is definitely momentum happening for May filers!  Let's hope we all get our cards within the next few weeks.
