Disaster
My work permit was approved and I received the letter you get before the card arrives and my social security number.
USCIS claimed that they delivered the card to my mailbox on the 28th October. On the 28th I waited outside for my card to arrive. However, that day it was raining heavily. No USPS van came to deliver my work permit, yet lo and behold, they marked it as delivered on the tracking system.
Upon calling USPS they adamantly said that they left it at the mailbox, however I was literally waiting outside at the time, so I know it was a lie.
Upon calling uscis they say I need to apply for the entire work permit process again? What do I do?
Thank you!

hey guys I just wanna share my timeline!
had my interview yesterday in lower Manhattan
the interview lady didn’t ask too many questions only things like name DOB parents name how much was the rent how much was rental insurance ( my husband didn’t know) and she was like “YOU DONT KNOW THAT?” lmao I got so scared
after the interview she said she needs 120 days to review my case but after three hours the case status changed to “new card is being produced” and today it changed to “case was approved”
wish everyone good luck on their journey! it is a long wait but it is worth it❤️ also if it’s real marriage don’t even worry! My husband’s answers were not even that good cuz he’s so forgetful lol but if anything it makes it more believable !!

Green card approved (new card is being produced) - (not the best) interview experience
Hi guys, sharing our experience because I know reading this forum helped me (if only mentally😅). Me and my husband have been married 2 years, we had a church wedding, no previous marriages and our lawyer said it’s a straight-forward case and he expects us to call him after 15 min after the interview saying that everything went perfect (spoiler alert: it didn’t). We had the interview yesterday at the Queens office, NY and.. it wasn’t pretty.🙃 To start we waited 2 HOURS passed the scheduled time (I literally went up to the check-in desk and asked if anyone is going to see us today) so I was already tired and annoyed (my husband, thank God, never gets annoyed😅😇). The officer started by saying he did “a lot of research on the case” and that we’d start by “clearing up several problems in our application”. He said our i130 should’ve never been approved because there was no bona fide attached to it (we did it thru a lawyer and he never asked us to provide any proofs for i130..). He was kind of harsh when I looked at my husband when answering his 1st question (I didn’t realize I’m being interrogated and I can’t look at my co-conspirator😆). He only let up when I showed him the 60 pictures we brought showing us traveling the world, visiting each other families and a lavish wedding.😅 He literally said: “pictures are great”.😂😂 We also gave him the electric/gas bill where both of our names are on it and also 3 months worth of our joint bank account statements. He also asked twice for paperwork related to my work (I had it all at home - my contract, even a physical check, I didn’t bring it because the lawyer I asked about it before specifically said my job is irrelevant and they wouldn’t ask about it..🙄🙄 Are you getting the theme of #FireTheLawyer ?🤨😆) and the latest i94 (we traveled between when we first applied and the interview). Beside that standard: both passports, my husbands driving license, my EAD, his naturalization certificate, our marriage certificate. The questions were:
- when did you start living with your husband?
- why did you do consular processing and then switched to AOS?
- What does your husband do?
- Where do you live?
- Did you travel together abroad?
- He showed me a picture with his family and asked me to name everyone
He also asked my husband (and told him not to look at home when he answers🙃🙂):
- how did we meet?
- What do I do? What is my role exactly?
That’s it. At the end he said something about being confused about my address on the i130 being different from the one on AOS (we did consular processing so the initial application has my Polish address on it). He finally said that we’re approved and will get the card in the mail soon. The takeaway: bring EVERYTHING and be prepared for any question. Also #FireTheLawyer.😅😅
I’m only going to say: thank God it’s over.🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 Good luck everyone! 😃
