EAD finally approved after expedition
After months of anxious waiting, finally received the good news today that my EAD is being produced and that I can start working again!! I’ve submitted two expedition requests via Emma to no avail; eventually, the senator’s office was able to get through to USCIS on the basis of financial loss (submitted a copy of job offer). Much gratitude.
best of luck to all of you out there!

@ bobo lu am also from Chicago how to expedite ead card through senator please
bobo luNov 2, 2021
@zain you can go to the websites of your local congressman or the two senators of the state of Illinois. they facilite communications between residents and federal agencies like USCIS. the one who helped me was Senator Durbin’s office

congratulations, how many days took review your expedite?
bobo luNov 2, 2021
@pat: after the senator’s office told me that USCIS would review my case, it took one day for them to get back to me asking for evidence, and one day to review. it all happened quite fast as soon as the senator’s office got through to them

hello there. I’m also applying from Chicago. how do you explain financial loss? did u just simply provide a job offer letter? that’s it?
bobo luNov 16, 2021
@julie: yes, that’s it
julie hNov 18, 2021
hello there. thanks for answering the question. did you write a cover letter to explain financial loss? is a job offer letter sufficient if I can’t proof financial loss? many thanks!!
