Tess,

Congratulations! I applied on June 30, 2014 and still waiting. Could you please answer some of my questions, it'll be much appreciated.

1. What was the exact date of your filing in June?
2. Did your online case status update right away? If not, how much was the delay between you receiving the letter and online case status being updated?
3. Did you receive the letter and EAD from vsc or nsc?
4. Did your husband file 2 I-765 for EAD or just one? Reason I ask is because most of the people are not receiving EAD with the DA they are asked to apply after but I did file I-765 along with my u-visa application.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you provide us the exact date? And did you apply I 765 for EAD card with that? Did you get the DA with EAD card? Please answer
Thank you.

Hello. Ok so im the main applicant. So my lawyer and i started our process in may and she sent out the application. Im not sure exactly which date my lawyer sent it. But as our email exchange im sure it was in middle of June 2014. After that the fingerprint appointment came in middle of July stating that appointment is on August-5-2014. Since then all we did was wait. I often checked uscis case status and it disnt say anything other thatn case was being processed. This year our lawyer said that my case was trasferred to Nebraska. I didnt receive any letter my lawyer did and our case was updated to card is being produced Before we received any letter. So it means our case status was updated before my lawyer received any letter.

As i said im the u visa applicant and my husband applied with me. But for some reason our lawyer only applied ead only for my husband. So now he is receiving his ead. I have to apply individually now. I didnt know at the time but what can i do you know. So im applying now it should take 90 days.

[Tess]

His ead is coming this week or next week. We didnt receive it with the letter. Letter came like in to my lawyers office last week although it could have been little earlier because my lawyer is quite busy so it couldve been taken day or two for her to get back to us. Actually ead car being processed to my card was delivered out was just updated yesterday on the uscis case status. Do you giys get what im explaining here. Let me know if you have any other questions.

[Tess]

My husband applied just one of each i765 and i918. I applied only i-918 the actual u visa. If i have known then i would have applied for ead i-765 with my husband then too. But i didnt so im going to apply now. Since it is DA im hoping i would get it soon

Tess,

Thanks for all the details. May things work out for you and your husband going forward and you are able to get GC through u-visa.

Is only nsc working on cases now or vsc too? looks like only applicants whose case is transferred to nsc are hearing good news.
