NilviaRR 53 Posted November 7, 2012 Ok, well my sister and I have been helping a lot of people in my town (small town) that have applied/are applying for the deferred action. We both got our EAD's last Friday (Happy Dance ) and we both applied wayy before everyone else in our town did. So we give them info, guidance, instructions, etc. Well, most of the kids went through a lawyer that the church provided after mass one day, they basically all filed it around that time, and they all had their applications double checked by that lawyer. No concern there, that lady was great and most of them now have biometrics appointments for this month. Well, there was one guy that filed his application before the rest of them and went through a separate lawyer, I have no idea who it was, we're trying to verify that... Bottom line is, he hasn't received anything at all... no letter saying they received anything, no texts, no emails, no biometric appointments, NOTHING... so my sister and I are pretty concerned... wondering if he ran into a pretty shady lawyer... Any recommendations on where to go from here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawf 336 Posted November 7, 2012 Go and ask that attorney, or if it's been more than 30 days you can always call and ask what's going on. Maybe the letters got lost, and he sure doesn't want to miss the biometrics or the case might get closed. Just call them. 1 NilviaRR reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aled 118 Posted November 8, 2012 It is a reality that out there you're going to find unscrupulous/shady lawyers. Whther or not this person paid money to this lawyer it is highly important that he gets in touch with the lawyer and ask him. You also didn't specify the exact date this lawyer sent the application. If its been more than three weeks than there certainly is a need for concern. There are many possibilities to ponder about. Find the lawyer and ask! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gezinha 121 Posted December 9, 2012 I have heard that if you apply through a lawyer, your process will always be a little longer. I did not, I did it myself, because it just seemed so easy, and for me to pay someone 1500 to fill out my own informatio on a sheet of paper was just absurd to me. I hope you have found that lawyer, and I hope the kid kept a contract or receipt of some sort. You can always go to your own lawyer you applied thru to ask what to do, if you are a customer, I am sure he or she can instruct you on what to do about a shady lawyer.
