tippy 1 Posted January 29, 2013 My youngest brother and I received our deferrals and employment authorization cards already, but our brother, who is about to graduate from high school, is still waiting for his. We all sent ours at the same time, but he still has to hear from USCIS. My two brothers' first names are Jose, and I was wondering: might that have affected the process at all? Our biometrics were done on November 20th, so we're still within the 90 days. Thank you! 1 sueco10 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JayhOR24 58 Posted January 29, 2013 I don't believe so! Every case is different there's people who have done biometrics back in Sept and Oct who have yet been approved! All that I can say its to just wait the 4-6 months for approval I know it had but patience is key! Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawf 336 Posted January 29, 2013 His documents might be in the desk of someone who works slower than the rest or something came up with his background record. He will have to be patient as every case is different, no matter if you live all in the same house or belong to the same family 1 jd_208 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lmao.. they won't be picking up vegetables, so I'm sure they won't hire any hispanics.. only if they are citizens and once you go citizens you don't work as hard anymore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't got my RFE yet but it's supposed to be coming any day sucks cause i waited thus long for them to barely be sending it to me. So as soon as i get it I'm sending all my things first class cause I'm trying to get the ball rolling! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jd_208 19 Posted February 1, 2013 Dont worry youll get approved soon, so far all the people that got biometrics done in october are getting approved just now, so dont worry i know it sucks and everybody tells you to keep your head up and staff like that, what i can tell you is, you can either let it be and wait till you get the letter in the mail, or you can check you status every 2 weeks not everyday because thinking about it constantly is gonna make you sick, so just try to keep your mind occupied. 1 analee02 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
