My ASC is in Tukwila / Seattle, and it took 5-ish months (with the help of my Congressman) to get that appointment. 
 

I had to commute since parking there was expensive, and the office is weirdly not in a busy area. They would only let the one with the appointment in, unless you need a translator, 15mins before you are scheduled. 
 

Process took about 20 mins since mine kept showing errors because of my Clammy nervous hands. 😂

Wow! What a story. Yes the time to get an appointment is between 3.5 months to 5.5 months. I see you had an RFE. This might get it worst

So my biometrics were taken way back on one of the last days before the covid closures (I think it might have literally been the last day).

Got my EAD and AP a couple weeks ago which is awesome. So people who did biometrics in August got their EAD and AP around the same time? That's nice.

Any idea how long it takes from now to the Green card?

I think, nobody knows how long it's gonna take, even USCIS 😁.

Lol probably. To be fair the timing wasn't much worse than the estimates were before covid hit, right? I was expecting it as late as july.

I mean, regarding EAD, probably it's more/less the same. I got my card a month ago, approved two months ago. But if we are talking about an interview, I don't know. Cause I saw only few people (February fillers) who already got their interview scheduled.

I didn't receive my EAD yet, bio on 13 August. I'm not sure you can guess when the green card interview will be, if everything goes well it should be by the Timeline, normally takes 1 year for AOS I think

Hi Everyone,

 

I received a response from USCIS today asking to fax them evidence of severe financial loss for the expedite request. I do not have a current job offer, but following are the docs I'm planning to submit. Do you think any other proof would make my case stronger? Also, please advise if I have to include a cover letter and anything else I should remember?

 

1. My bank account statement

2. Statement of credit cards & other debts

3. Proof that my wife lost her job due to Covid in April

4. Proof that our only source of income is her unemployment benefits and the additional $600 relief benefit ended as of July

5. Eviction lawsuit filed by our landlord due to non payment of August rent

6. My job offer from Dec 2019 and an email from employer that they have to revert the offer due to lack of EAD

7. My W2s between 2014 & 2019 - Shows that I worked here on H1B for 5 yrs, so I can get good paying tech job only if I have EAD.

 

Thank you!

 

Happy Monday folks! Just received email that my expedite request is approved:)

Don’t forget the filled in worksheet. It’s not of any importance but they will be looking for it when you get in.

Yay!!! I’m glad you were able to use Emma to your advantage. It’s useful to some extent especially for info that you can get from Tier 1. Calling can be stressful.
