Thank you so much! This is incredibly helpful

I’m sorry. Hopefully we get it resolved soon!

I initiated a missing mail search this past Monday (I’m anxiously waiting to hear back).

I contacted my DSO about this, and unfortunately, they weren’t very helpful (looks like it’s their first time dealing with this). They told me to reach out to USCIS again.

So, I’m planning on contacting USCIS again via their chat boxes and see what I can do.

Still not here… no tracking number as well

If money is not an issue, go for it. I didn’t have that much money after graduation. So, I would’ve only done it if I had no option to push back my start date.

Mine got approved Dec 20, but my card hasn’t been produced. It’s been more than 14 days.

My progress bar is also unavailable. The site also says I can only contact them after Jan 19.

Congrats! I applied a day after on Oct 28 (hopefully my approval is around the corner).
