Depending on your type of visa, you might be able to file an inquiry, because of processing time, if your inquiry does not work, you can file (with an attorney) a writ of mandamus.

Immigration is going through some very serious issues. This is not entirely their fault, because of COVID, a lot of officers, and I mean it, got fired. So that’s why is taking some long to process.

@Flavio, I agree but also disagree.
if it's due to officers getting fired etc, why are most of the applicants this year getting their approvals while those of us who applied in 2020 and 2019 are still pending??

you need to file a mandamus get a lawyer to file it for you

I am also in the same situation. quick question, did you have to pay the fees when you applied for your work authorization card?

@flaviojunior i don’t want to apply for the mandemus since everytime they telling me that I have background check going on I don’t want to spend 5k after they give the same answer
Flavio JrDec 14, 2021
Understood… In this case, talk to a lawyer to see if it is possible to visit the immigration office close to your home to talk to a supervisor, I’ve seen some people doing that.

LP LPDec 14, 2021

talk to Emma on chat and ask for a inquiry
