EB2 NIW RFE response and EAD delay
submitted my EAD 204 days ago and tried expediting 83 days ago, but I haven’t heard anything back. Spoke to Tier 2 agent and she says be patient. I’m hopeful my I140 and I485 get approved so I won’t need the EAD.

I have submitted my initial application in May, 2021. try to expedite it 30 days ago. There is no response. Did you have your biometric done already?

@Tobi Adu any news on your I140?
Tobi AduNov 20, 2021
none so far. it’s been over 70 days since I submitted RFE response.
I raised SR yesterday and they told me I’d get a response within 30 days #fingerscrossed

Ok hopefully you will get a response soon. But I have a feeling TSC isn't processing NIW cases lately.
Super ManNov 20, 2021
Unfortunately no premium processing for NIW.

How did you reach out to tier 2 agent? Via Emma? I asked for updates on my case via Emma, the response I got was your case is under normal processing. We will contact you if we need anything or once it is approved.

once you are able to chat with a live agent, you can request for a call from a tier two agent

would you mind tell me what was your RFE about?
