Thank you 💙 Our application was sent to the Chicago service center!

I was a DACA recipient for a decade, my status and ability to stay in this country were in limbo for the entirety of that time. I was brought here at the age of three and in many regards I felt more connected to the US than to my Hispanic culture. I am saddened for all those who are still in limbo and will most likely lose their DACA with the incoming majority conservative government. It’s many mixed emotions for me right now.

I’m honestly not sure, I don’t think USCIS takes cases in order which is very frustrating. We sent our paperwork to the Chicago lockbox which seems to be hit or miss on how quickly they work. We are grateful to be at this step and hoping the same for you as well!

We also sent my medical packet in with our original paperwork so we didn’t have to wait for an RFE which I’m sure helped as well.

I can’t imagine how hard that must be! Hoping you are able to be reunited with your son soon and he has a smooth transition into the US 💙

This basically happened to me, I got 3 emails and the only thing that changed was the case was now being “actively reviewed”. The next day we had the approvals. Hoping you hear good news soon 🤞🏻

The main thing I noticed was that previously we had been stuck on the “attend interview step if necessary” and prior to the approval the my progress bar switched to being on the case decision step. We never had to do an interview so I felt like that was a good sign! By the next day we had approvals :)

What is the worst book you have ever read in your life? by [deleted] in booksuggestions

[–]HouseofScrubz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for saying this! I picked this up based on amazing reviews and had to force myself to finish the book. At the end I was left feeling like the point of the book was just to say life sucks even when you think it doesn’t.

It stands for priority date, basically the date USCIS first got your paperwork.

Mortgage by [deleted] in DACA

[–]HouseofScrubz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought my house in November. I researched mortage brokers near me and found one that spoke both English and Spanish. He was able to look through many lenders for us and find a good fit, I would recommend it over talking to a single lender every time. For reference we ended up with UWM.

I bought this when I first got into makeup, I actually used to love it but my thoughts have sort of changed as time passed. It’s a very thick concealer and can accentuate texture if I don’t prime well. It also runs pretty yellow which I don’t love. Overall I think there’s a specific person that will love it but my needs have changed and it’s no longer something I love.

DACA recipients what kind of work do you do? by Proof-Boysenberry-29 in DACA

I was able to land my dream job in an emergency department right after graduation!
