@Man Man I agree. I entered in 2016, struggled a lot but hard lessons learned few things take time but life can be lived still and managing stress

But for those who can’t get EAD till I360 is approved… easier said than done

@k d You still have to find some positivities in your life. But I guess it’s all about mindset. You can start learning some skills while waiting on your EAD. However you see it tho🤷🏾

it’s not easy because their are people who don’t have EAD to work

🤦@filler 2022 💯

@Dee 🙏🏽 I never said it was easy. I’m just saying it’s easier to focus on the many negatives than few positives. I have been without EAD too for many years but I always tried to see the positive side. I occupied myself so much that I often forget about my processes and that’s what worked for me then. We will have always that moment of weakness, that normal because we are human. But nothing should stop us from feeling positive. We will all laugh and celebrate about this journey at the end of the day.

totally agreed! We should be staying positive and hopes up.Soon this journey will be over!!

Best advice: “Learn a skill.” So when your approvals come in, you will be ready to harvest. I've been waiting since 2022; my EAD has not been renewed yet, but I keep thinking that God is preparing me for something big. An approval sounds great, and I am here for it, but time doesn't slow down for anybody. Every second we spend stressing is a second we can't get back. So be faithful, limit the time and focus you give to anxiety and stress over what we can't control, and let God take the wheel. You already did your part; let God do the rest. Keep checking, but don't give up your peace. What is yours, it is yours, God will give it to you!

Amen

thank you for your advice. It’s so true, whenever I think about this long process I get really depressed.

Its hard but you are right. I do have a EAD but prior to having one my friend had encourage me to find something to do. because when the process come through I can continue working on what I started. I had a Bachelor degree from my country but I went to adult program here and do a GED. I now evaluate my degree in thd u.s and they grant me a degree here. Things are not easy but I am trying. I have been waiting since 2022 and I get frustrated but I am keeping hope alive.

@sara cg That’s great to hear. That’s exactly what I did. I took almost one and a half year to learn the skills I’m currently using right now. Then I got my EAD, it was easy for me to start working and gaining experience. That was I’m trying to encourage others that we can channel our pain into something positive.

@help me god Understandable. I get so busy with work and school, I mostly forgot about the process. And it been working for me so far

@God loves you! ;) exactly. Always keep preparing. We did come this far just to come this far. Every frustration will turn to happy story soon.

@Man Man I totally agree. It might not be easy for everyone, but let's be grateful in any situation. when God approves your case it will surely manifest. Almighty Approval is what we all hope for. Slowly but surely we shall all get our APPROVAL!!! Amen.
