Save #greencard numbers.
EB green card applicants have been asking USCIS to accept medical exam evidence after it issues green cards. This month, it did this exact thing... but only for Afghan SIVs. Happy for the SIVs, but why not use this to save some of the 100-150K EBs? fam.state.gov/FAM/09FAM/09FA…
Replying to @USCIS
@USCIS my H4 and h4ead was split to 2 diff centers citing load distribution - can we not do something similar? After 14 years of waiting we will get an EAD in 1 year and wait another 5 years for GC? What madness is this? #endgreencardbacklog

Texas SC needs upto 50 months to process the I-485 application for adjustment of status. This basically means we are in #pendingadjudication state for 4 years! Pending #H4EAD renewals, #H1b extensions , DMV license renewals while the future awaits us! @SecMayorkas @StateDept why

@CatoInstitute can you please highlight this issue? It’s tiring to wait for 14 years for an EAD, which has not yet come, only to be told that we need to wait for 5 more years for a Green card and 5 more years for citizenship! Most of this country is made up@by immigrants.

How messed up is this! 🛑 #h4eaddelays
12-14 months to process EAD application, after approval wait 60 days to receive actual EAD card, if you STILL don’t receive your card after waiting for 16 months call @USCIS and wait another 30 days for a response. Wow. No words. This is unacceptable @DHSgov @SecMayorkas @POTUS

Waive green card Interviews to reduce processing delays and increase efficiency. Crisis-level delays are bricks in the ‘invisible wall’ curbing immigration in US. Speed up process times to clear green card backlog. #USCISDelays #EADDelays #485Delays @USCIS @SecMayorkas @UrJaddou
Speed up process times to clear green card backlog. Equip @USCIS with resources to reduce processing delays. Speed up processing. Reduce green card process delays to stop wasting visas. #USCISDelays #EADDelays #485Delays @USCIS @SecMayorkas @UrJaddou bayareane.ws/3kp51B4

H4EAD holders are serving the community as doctors, nurses and first responders in this pandemic. Don't take them out of work with your astronomical processing times #WomenForcedToQuit due to #H4EADdelays .@SecMayorkas

Even after earning Masters degree in the US, being a productive employee in an american company, #WomenForcedToQuit their jobs just because of USCIS #H4EADdelays. This needs to be resolved asap .@SecMayorkas https://nitter.gq/t.co/KOKVfYpx09 help us get our lives back!

This is sad - but does anyone care? The likes of companies like Amazon and Facebook are involved in next generation technology but are at the mercy of USCIS and archaic immigration laws. When will this end ? #gcbacklog @SenatorDurbin @SecMayorkas @PressSec
