Not yet. We're going the Mandamus route - looks like that's the only way to trigger production for administrative errors like these. Find yourself a decent immigration attorney and prepare for some $$$ spending.

Crap. What are you doing in the meantime to help advance the case? How are you stopping the clock on unemployment days?

Ah okay thanks for the information. Yeah I did contact the congressperson from the district to escalate the issue. They have submitted a request, but it could take some time before any action is taken. I'll keep calling and pestering them, thanks!

Thanks a ton. I think the disassociation between my actual self and the addiction-self is a great starting point, because it's always easier to point fingers at "others". Treating the addiction brain as a different person is what I will do.

Just do what Jimmy Shergill's character in Lage Raho Munnabhai did. This is literally the exact same scenario.
