My phone is on loud too. I will call them on Monday again if I don’t get any call today. Update me if you got the call. I was suppose to have my N400 interview on March 30 but it was de-scheduled due to covid19 😕

I just called them. The representative told that I am still in cue and I should expect a call today. We we’re about to hike with our dog and just cancel the plan today since I don’t want to lose reception  then I asked about the case she said my N-400 should be rescheduled soon and my I-751 is already out of processing time. I am transferred to 2nd tier representative and they should call me back in 50 minutes.

I called them as well. The escalated officer closed my request because she said I needed a valid un expired passport. But after doing research.. the USCIS website says that if a passport isn’t available they can stamp it on an i94 form with a photograph. I’m so frustrated and have been in tears because it seems every officer has their own way of doing things.

 

it took me 8 months to obtain a job. Now I’m scared I won’t be able to have the paperwork required in time.

Tier 2 officer said they will only schedule appointment if its an emergency. Like for example your employment gave you a letter that you need a proof of residency urgent or you will lose the job. They need a proof.

Yes, I have that. That’s good to know that a tier 2 can do it, so I don’t need to wait another 5 days.

My 18 months extension is up. Tier II told me not to worry - I was still a permanent resident and I would not accrue unlawful presence so long as my I-751 (and N-400) petitions are pending.

 

Just, don’t leave the country or change jobs!

I understand the status. But unfortunately I am starting a new job.

I’m so sorry to hear about your situation, unfortunately I’m in the same boat: expired passport; embassy minimally functional relative to COVID-19. I also read on the website that an i94 can be issued in cases of an expired passport. Does that mean we are screwed? No passport, no residency documentation. This is scary!

Anyone hear switch to a waiver filing (divorce) while waiting on their case? I don’t know what’s wrong with me but I can’t find the guidelines for how to do that.

They gave me and I94 with a I551 stamp! So I would try and push for that!

I don’t understand. Are u saying they later scheduled you for an info pass and issued the stamp on an I94? Do you now have documentation for work?

Would you please respond, I really need to know where I stand.

Since my passport was expired, I did some research and it states on the USCIS website that if a passport is unavailable, a form I94 can be issued with a I551 stamp.

i informed USCIS on the phone that I spoke with my consulate and their offices are closed for COVID and could push my renewal to 3 months.

 

so they gave me an appointment at my local field office, which confirmed they can give me the i94 form with a stamp. I went in and took 2 passport photos with me. Process was easy once you’re in the office. It’s getting the appointment that’s difficult.

 

if you could have financial impact by not providing work eligibility to your employer, I would tell USCIS that it is an emergency or your job is at risk. Then escalate to a tier 2 rep and see if they can escalate your appointment for you. I waited 9 days from their estimated 5 days for an appointment. 
 

I hope it works out for you. 😢

Thank you, that is really encouraging. Appreciate the information.
