letter from USCIS
Yesterday I received a notice letter from USCIS saying
Case Type: 1485J - CONFIRMATION OF BONA FIDE JOB OFFER OR REQUESTFOR JOB PORTABILITY INA
Notice Type: Receipt Notice Fee Waived
Am I the only one who received it or does everyone receive this letter? Coz I never heard about this before.
expedite request denied
Hello friends, has this happened to anyone? Please tell me. I had submitted an expedite request for a travel document through a congressman and USCIS said that the background check is pending. However, a message came to my USCIS online account that we cannot expedite it because we do not believe based on a review of your request that your case meets the expedite criteria.How can two different decisions come at the same time from the same application?
thankyou
