No, it’s “free”
SK ADec 2, 2021
thank you for not having me 'wait forever' for this info.
waiting_ foreverDec 2, 2021
ha ha, pun intended
SK ADec 2, 2021
Haha, thanks again!

Have you followed up on your case? like SR or congressperson/senator? Just curious… I applied 11 months after you and it already feels too long.
SK ADec 2, 2021
yes i did...and got this mssg
"
We have received your service request and researched the status of your case. We have had to perform additional review, and this has caused a delay in processing time. Your case is currently in line for processing and adjudication. Cases are processed in the order in which they were received"
i guess it is their standard response yeah?
waiting_ foreverDec 2, 2021
Yeah, pretty standard. I’d try congressional inquiry and then if that doesn’t work the ombudsman. Like bug them every 60 days or something.
SK ADec 2, 2021
I will give them till Jan then bombard them after...really appreciate your help/advice. what is the status of your appl?
waiting_ foreverDec 2, 2021
Fingers crossed 🤞🏾. I renewed my ead a few months back. I was transferred to Texas at the start of the year and nothing has moved since. Did an SR recently and was told I was still within time. I am regrouping now.
SK ADec 2, 2021
Any medicals for you yet?
waiting_ foreverDec 2, 2021
I submitted when I applied. They just need to press that YES button now. lol
SK ADec 2, 2021
I know right...I did the same thing. I just wonder if they will request medical RFE esp for the Covid attestation piece. Will be praying for you and us!
waiting_ foreverDec 2, 2021
Ugh, probably. And thanks. All the best to you too! Hopefully you won’t need to spend more time following up 🤞🏾
