Pray for my expedite process.
Today I called my congressman office after a month of putting in my expedite request for EAD. They told me that uscis reached out to them yesterday and asked that I send documents to prove financial hardship to the congressman's office email which will then be forwarded to USCIS. I did all of that this afternoon now just waiting and praying to hear the outcome 🙏.
How long does it typically take to know the outcome after sending the documents they ask to prove financial hardship ?

no idea about timelines , how long did congressman take to send expedite request to uscis ?
NH ONov 17, 2023
@Mocha M I think it took about 2 to 3 days before they sent it to uscis.....not long at all. The uscis just takes really long to respond/acknowledge the expedite request.

understood!, is there major difference between regular expedite request ( which takes 30days) and senator expedite request ?
NH ONov 17, 2023
@Mocha M I think with regular expedite, a pro is that you can keep checking on the status by calling uscis about it while congressman you can't ask uscis about it. However, uscis respects congressman expedite more than regular expedite.
it's advisable to just do the regular and congressman/senator expedite at the same time, whichever works.....no need to just do only one when there's nothing stopping you from doing both.

thanks ! I’ve done Emma expedite on Oct 23rd they told to wait for a month , should I also do congressman expedite or wait till Nov 23rd and then goto congress ?
NH ONov 17, 2023
@Mocha M Honestly I would say wait till 23rd (if you can). Just see the outcome of the Emma expedite, call uscis ones every like 4 days to ask about the status of the Emma expedite. Just call uscis and when the robot voice ask what can it do for you, say "infopass" then you'll be able to talk to a live agent.
If on the 23rd they haven't still approved your expedite or asked you to send proof then just do the congressman expedite.
