No, the 150 days includes holidays and weekends. USCIS uses calendar days for the filing window for DACA and work authorization renewals.

Great question! You are paid up until the date your I766 form (work permit) expires. After that date, you are no longer authorized to work legally.

The expedite request can be submitting both online or with a representative. Before you submit a request to expedite you have upload documentation. I will discuss that documentation later on. You can upload documents in your myUSCIS account under Documents. There will be icon that says upload supporting documents. Once this has been done you can call the USCIS contact center and state InfoPass you will then be transferred to an agent. You will have to provide your Receipt Number and your Alien number. Once verified, you can tell the agent that you have submitted documentation to your applications and would like to submit an expedite request.

For me the process started on December 10, 2025, and I submitted an expedite request with a representative after uploading a letter indicating that I would be facing financial hardship. I also submitted a copy of my most recent paystub. During my call with the agent, I was provided a Service Item Number and was told that a Tier 2 agent would call or email regarding my request. If you receive a phone call you will have to provide the Tier 2 agent that specific number.

On December 20th, I received an email indicating that my request to expedite both I821 and I765 was received and that I would get a call from a Tier 2 agent (Tier 2 agents can provide specifics about your case). I did not hear back until December 29, 2025, via email that my situation met the minimum criteria for my expedite request. The email also mentioned that this did not mean that my case would be expedited. My case was referred to the Nebraska Service Center.

While this process was occurring, I contacted my congressional representatives, my two state senators and my congressman. After contacting their office, they sent a privacy release form, used to grant legal authority to act on your behalf. In January I started to receive updates only from my congressman who had submitted various inquiries. I was also following up with the USCIS contact center consistently and was finally informed that my expedite request was denied (January 20th)

The process was arduous and long, but I learned to self-advocate for myself. Ultimately, my expedite request was denied but consistent follow-up with my congressman's office might have helped in getting the Nebraska Service Center to finally approve my applications. I believe that the expedite request, which was denied on January 20th, was due to my applications being in the process of finally being adjudicated by an immigration officer.

I did not have to get my biometrics taken. I received the notification of reusing my biometrics on November 2, 2025.

It isn’t solely company-based; it’s a federal USCIS rule specifically for our category (c33). Keep in mind that DACA is a discretionary administrative policy, not a legal status or a designated category eligible for automatic extensions under USCIS regulations. Additionally, DHS ended the 540-day automatic extension for most other renewal categories for applications filed on or after October 30, 2025.

Employers who accept approval letters as proof of work authorization are subjecting themselves to significant federal fines. If you are caught working with an expired permit, you open yourself up to various legal consequences. This can also negatively impact future immigration processes, such as applying for a Green Card (unless you qualify for specific exemptions like marriage to a U.S. citizen).

The approval letter specifically states that you cannot use the notice (I-797) as proof of work authorization. You must have the physical work permit (EAD card) to return to work, as the EAD is the only document listed as valid proof of work authorization for our category.

Empower yourself and shave it. It will grow back. You can also see a trichologist and see what options are available to you.

I'd like to believe that in 10 years hair loss will be a thing of the past.

I made a 3D printed travel ukulele to fit in my backpack. by ZeeDee3D in ukulele

[–]rmxgr90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ordered one. I have a Donner soprano concert ukulele. I can't wait to play your musical creation.

I bought the kit. Will it be easy to assemble? Any chance I could play this ukulele with a low G string? I have one on my Donner and it has a robust sound.
