Veevee20 14 Posted April 25, 2013 Uscis had received my application on sept 20,2013 biometrics on Oct 24,2013 and since then I waited. I would call to try to get some type of answer and I would never get one, all they would say is wait and sometimes be rude. I've read some cases here were people talk about making themselves sick with depression and anxiety attacks, and yes i had those too. You can't help but to think your application is getting denied because its been sooo long, well at least I did. What I finally decided to do was to contact my local congressman which in my case was Raul Ruiz. Congressman can get into any Federal files with your concent of course. So I filled out the form and explained my situation, printed it out, signed it and faxed it. All that happened on a Monday April 8,2013 and by Friday the 12th I was already approved. Id like to think he helped me. After all you got nothing to lose, give it a try. Hope this helped. 7 marisol143, lyssa, Fresita22 and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay If you don't have a social security number put N/A The agency involved would be DACA And the branch would be USCIS The agency case numbers would be your two receipt numbers And then you Explain your situation After that you print it and sign it. I suggest you fax it It's faster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

misaelfromnc 5 Posted April 29, 2013 needless to say from my research about my local congress man Mr. Walter Jones he is completely agianst illegal immigrants and deferred action so this will probly not help. but it is a great idea for those that are in areas where your congress man is in agreement with the action.

Yeah I'm stuck with a republican representative as well, I was just looking to this option if in case my application was to exceed 6 months (hopefully not) but my representative takes this issues at heart I believe he's also a chairman for the homeland security board.. so he's a no-go well i still have alot of time to go so I wont be stressing over this till I actually get to that point.. good luck to everyone else.
