Hi Everyone, 

 

I have an unusual situation, I left the country a couple week ago with my EAD and it has since been stolen along with my passport. does anyone know what i can do to return to the US. I have a Vawa application pending 

What country are you in? You will have to go to your embassy and obtain another passport, then you can go to US Embassy and obtain a stamp to return to US.

Dear friends, 

     Good evening. I wanted to get your input and suggestions. My attorney just informed me that he received a denial notice for my I-485 application. Per the denial notice, the reason is I failed to attend an interview scheduled back in Nov 2019. But, I never received or was informed about any interview appt notice. Per the USCIS website, my I-485 application is still pending. No mention of an interview notice at all. As per the case status update, the latest information they have is that my fees were waived. 

The question is what is the probability that this denial notice was issued by mistake? 

My current options appear to be: 1) contact Ombudsman, 2) appeal the decison with the USCIS Appeals Admin Office and

3) re-file the I-485 application? 

 

Has anyone else faced this issue? 

Coincidentally my current work permit is also to expire in March 2020. So, this has now impacted my approval for a C09 based EAD card. If I file for a c31 based EAD card, how long would it take to get the receipt notice and finally the approval and EAD card? I understand the wait time is longer for c31 based EAD. 

I would appreciate anyone who can give me proper guidance regarding solutions and how to expedite the process? I would be grateful for any advice!

your i-485 is based on what? vawa or marriage? 

I had same issue when they denied my case because i did not proved enough proof during interview even though i did not have interview. My attorney dropped a letter to the field office to open the case which they did. I did not refile or appeal.

VAWA. So, what happens once you ask to reopen the case? how long do you have to wait? is your place in the line still the same? did you get the I-485 interview request? 

 

My file apparently says I did not attend the interview but I never received notice of an interview notice to begin with. Neither is it mentioned on the uscis case status update on their website.

My situation was little different. I went for the interview that was based on marriage. We waited there for almost 6 hours. USCIS did not find my file therefore officer told me to go home and they will reschedule my interview. Instead of rescheduling they denied after 9 months. 

it tool almost 35 days for them to reopen the case. they put me in the same line as before. Ask your lawyer to send them a letter to reopen the case.

omg that must have been so frustrating. i hope this time around, things work out for you! i hope you have good legal representation and an attorney you trust 100%, who fights hard for their clients. i hope you hear good news soon!
