关于加急: USCIS的总体原则是first come, first serve。我当时得到工作offer到要求我去上班的时间很短,就一周,而且我在拿到offer时候还没有拿到我的OPT。这下我就郁闷了,因为没OPT就意味着没法上班。我只能跟学校的国际学生办公室说帮我加急。一般来说可能会问说自己加急是不是更快,我当时查了网上的经验,都说如果之间联系学校发加急信,可以直接找到负责自己学校case的美国移民局的工作人员,相对效率高些。加急信需要你收据号还有你的offer扫描件,来证明说你已经有工作了,但是需要尽快得到OPT卡工作。 这里需要说的是,一般由于有大量的人想加急,你打电话说加急,第一次打电话,很可能被拒绝,但是千万不要灰心,你需要的就是继续打电话Fax,只要你确实马上要工作,有正当的理由。Offer letter不行,再加上一封老板的support letter。需要说的是你要是申请的时候就有工作了,你在邮寄材料里边就直接附上你的expedite paper request和offer letter.加急批准了的话,马上card production,只需要一周,你就能拿到你的EAD卡了。个人觉得所有方法中,打电话给USCIS Customer service最有效,拨通USCIS网站上现实的电话,在check the case status之后,有一个选项"if you have problem with the case or ...",选择这个,然后就有了"request expedite processing”的选项。按进去,等了一会就有真人接了。
分享一个加急的版本:
EXPEDITE REQUEST(Receipt Number: XXXXXXXXXX)
08/26/2013
USCIS
CALIFORNIA SERVICES CENTER
ATTN: HUNT/WS17099
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing in regard to the expedite request for my EAD application. I
requested the expedite service on *** of 2012. However, I received an email
telling me that I will need to wait for another 30 days for a decision.
I have been offered a great job position at The O*****y and the starting
date is *** of 2012-less than 10 business days. As a foreign student, one of
the requirements for receiving this offer is that I should have employment
authorization approved. As I need my salary to pay for my living expenses by
myself, the delayed approval will lead to severe financial loss. More
importantly, if I do not start on time, I may lose this great job
opportunity!
Secondly, it has been more than 55 days since USCIS filed my cased on 10/9/
2012. Based on the first-come-first serve principle, my case is expected to
be approved along with the cases of the same application date. Given that
other cases filed the later have been approved (Listed below) and my case is
still pending, I believe my situation satisfies the criteria for expedite
