这一年的时间从板上吸收不少资讯,我的申请经验可能有一些特殊的地方可以分享。
首先体检的部分,从uscis网站找到一个本校医院的医生符合资格,去抽个血,
拿I-693用保险annual check全部cover。
I-140的部分有请律师,但我心得是如果能拿到petition模板,
可能花一周的时间我应该可以写出同等quality的petition,马上省5000usd。
後来从朋友那边拿到他的I-140 petition,可能是领域接近,可以说70%左右都差不多,
让我感觉律师也是套膜版,其他不一样的地方主要也是我写给律师的部分。
I485的部分从去年10月压完指纹一直到New card is being produced,
中间状态没有改变过, 都是uscis fingerprint fee was received。
副申请人五月收到出生证明RFE,原本I-485只交了英文户籍誊本,
年初已经想到有可能被RFE,根据板上讯息已请台湾家人准备好正副申请人的原始户籍+
翻译+法院盖章,所以连同主申请人的也一并寄回到NBC。另外副申请人的I-485上有勾了
public charge,当时在加州有申请medical但没有使用,主要是给小孩用,所以每次有
回信的cover letter上都有强调之後不会是public charge。
联络议员的部分,因为研究有SARS2相关,希望可以加急。前两次回应大致上很罐头,
第三次跟我说uscis不知道是filed office 还是 NBC来决定我能不能加急。所幸找WA的
另一个senator,两周之後跟我通知有一个七月的RFE没回覆?我根本没有收到这个RFE,
他扫描寄email给我原来是要Supplement J。打电话给学校HR,说学校政策只帮学校
sponsored的case签Supplement J,给我律师电话让我谘询。打电话律师说是uscis的
mistake可以帮写RFE response,600usd。已经被写grant & paper搞到每天强迫症的我,
决定自己花一个晚上写response。主要就是说uscus你搞错了NIW不用交Supplement J,
然後附上offer letter、paystubs和w2,再说一次不会是public charge
然後我对COVID疫情很重要,马上usps快递回去。隔天field office收到package,
我立刻联系Senator Murray Office说Seattle field office收到了我的package,
帮我催一下,结果下午状态马上改New card is being produced。
折腾了一年,希望尽快看到这green card庐山真面目
