erika22 27 Posted December 19, 2012 Hello my name is Erika and I'm new to this whole forum thing Im hoping to receive more information and support regarding the deferred action that Obama approved. I found this forum while googling deferred action information and finally decided to join today. I am very impatient so this process is killing me I was very calm at the beginning since I received paperwork immediately after the application was sent but now its just sit down and wait for something to happen. Ive called the USCIS 1800 number twice in the past two weeks and they just say the process can take up to 90 days or 4-6 months which makes me more anxious. I had a bad experience while applying my lawyer lied to me saying he had sent in the paperwork since September 15 and to my surprise when I asked him for a receipt number a month later he had no such thing when I went to his office he was very apologetic about the whole thing saying he had not even started my paperwork so I fired him and the next day he called my mom saying he had the paperwork ready all I needed to do was sign the paperwork. What bugs me the most is that I had recommended him to everyone at school saying he was really good, not very expensive and fast to my surprise he was a loser. Besides that I decided to be patient and stay focused on other things to make the time fly but its not working I currently finished this semester at school and I am now focusing my attention on the mailman and on the USCIS case status which really doesn't help much. Well that's my long story has anyone applied in November? Ive seen most people post a timeline and well here's mine- Date Application Sent: October 30, 2012 Location- Nebraska Mail Method: Express Mail Date Delivered: November 5, 2012 Date Acceptance Letter of Application Received: November 5, 2012 Date of I-797 C Notice of Action: November 5, 2012 Service Center: Nebraska Date of Biometrics: December 5 @ 3:00 RFE Received: Pending Date of EAD Approval: Pending Date of EAD Received: Pending 1 Admin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
