Discuss humming28's OPT USCIS Case

My application got into Vermont Center around 8 April.
Hope we April applicants all get good processing times.

I hope so too. I sent my application through UPS and someone signed it. I'm still waiting to receive my receipt number. Let's hope for the best.

If you sent the form for notification via email, it will come in a couple of days.
Then you will get letter via regular mail 3 or so days later. Both will contain your case number.

So far, 5 of us have filed in April.
optapplicant1 April 1st, sent to Vermont.
agoodgirl filed April 3rd, sent to Vermont.
Keiiah filed April 8th, sent to Nebraska.
mashka filed April 10th, sent to Nebraska.
humming28 filed April 14th, sent to Vermont.

The trackitt list can be sorted by date of application filed by clicking just below "Application Filed" column.

Let's hope it all goes well! Good luck to all of you!! I really hope to get it before June 1st.

Hey humming28!

Did you go through any security clearance while getting your F-1 visa? I had to go through and I will apply to OPT soon so I was just wondering. Good luck!

Hey oxfordcomma,

I didn't really go through any security clearance. Good luck with your application!!

Did you hear back from them ?

Hi Rohtas,

Not yet. I'm getting really worried since I have to have it before June 3rd :/

Event though i need to have it later than you, i am worried because i received email notice on 14th april and still haven't received a decision yet :(

how did you do ? Have you let your company know?

I have a similar situation here.

I'm still on initial review. :( I am suppose to start on Monday. I e-mailed my company today but I haven't receive any response.

did you call for expedite ?

yes and got denied twice

I think your case should get approved. around 2 months now

It's hard for me to be optimistic at this point. I'm not even sure if my employer will give me a flexible starting date.

when is the job starting?

Humming28, what dates did you request for expedite? I called last week Tuesday and when I hadn't heard back from them by Friday, I called again.That was when the customer service person said I should have received a notice the wednesday after I called. Insisted that I had received anything, so she connected me to an officer. I stayed on the line for 40minutes only for officer to tell me my expedite was denied. I checked again this past sunday and it said alien reg. number....It's good that yu called. Maybe you're next in line to hear back. Don't give up yet.

I got approved today but not card production yet. How long does it take from approval to card production? Thanks for all the support.

Optgirl, have you start work?

congratulations

Congrats, humming28!

Congrats! my notice date was April 17th and I am still in initial review. How much is the normal processing time?

humming28....how exactly did you send them your offer? Just mail it to their address? my phone expedite request was also denied..thanks in advance!

I mailed my offer to their mailing address. I'm not sure whether mailing the offer helps but it doesn't harm to try! Good luck!

ok..thank you :)
