Should payroll continue in STEM OPT in I-485 processing?
Hi everyone! I am in a dilemma whether should I continue to run payroll and need to let my DSO report for STEM OPT progress, or should not bother about it anymore? Here is my context, in May 2021 my wife (in F2 visa) filed for I-485 in EB3 other category and I am her dependent (but I am maintaining F1 visa status and currently in my STEM OPT extension period). Our file in TSC and she will start working for the employer after we get GC EAD or GC approval either that comes first. Now, can I stop updating my school DSO or reporting for working under an e-verified company with payroll or still need to continue for an e-verified company? we only had I-140 approved (premium processing) and biometrics done 4 months ago and no updates since last 8 months of I-485 application. Hope someone knows what to do in my case. Thanks in advance.#I-485#eb3 other category#TSC#GC EAD
I-765 approved, June Filer, NBC, IOE01252….
APPROVED. I expedited through my senator on January 14th. I submitted a job offer with supporting bills. It was approved today.
I cannot tell you how happy I am. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
To everyone who is still waiting, I am praying for you. We’re all in this journey together and we can get through this and the next process that comes our way.
I encourage you to apply for expedite if you can. (just my opinion) the worst that can happen is they say no.
Quick question: how long will it take for my card to arrive in the mail? Will my I-131 travel parole be approved because it still says received. from my understanding it gets issued as a combo card and it will come with it? is that correct?
Regarding a social security number. what is the process going forward with this?
Thank you to everyone on this group for the support, communication and words of encouragement when things just could not seem to go right. Next step green card. We can do this🥰

September 2020 - I-130 Update
the latest update I’ve received from an agent through Emma was that my case was transferred to my local field office back in May 2021. this is after another agent telling me it was transferred to nebraska. so even after this transfer nothing else has happened to my case. have not had any success with service requests either. currently have an ombudsman and congressional request in the works. #stillwaiting

DS-160 Questions
hello everyone. I have a question regarding a question on the ds-160. It asks my fiancé, if he has any children. i am the petitioner and I got pregnant and had our baby here in the US. however he is not on the birth certificate as the father because by florida law he has to present and obviously he couldn’t be here. so biologically it is his child just not legally?. so do we put that he has children or no?
How to get past EMMA and talk to a person?
I did info pass but it keeps redirecting me to different links that don't answer mt questions.
I keep trying to ask EMMA which service center is my case being processed at but it keeps giving me the link to check case status
Can someone please guide me on this? Thanks in advance!
Never got Card Ordered update/ straight to Approved is that normal?
Helllo guys, I don’t know if the portal updates are super funky or something🙁 but I went to my green card interview Friday and both 130 and 485 shouldve been approved that day( documents uploaded to account Saturday ) but the tracker says 130 approved today and 485 approved yesterday. for 485 it never had the card ordered update like many of yours had just skipped straight through approved. Is this normal? i went on case history in the account and also it doesn’t show card ordered. it didn’t update to mailed either I’m kind of worried 😭 the updates on the tracking tool seems super funky
