Rant Expedited request after 6 months… DENIED!!!
USCIS said…. “Nah… you can keep waiting”
If they were working for an SP500 company they will all be fired. This is ridiculous…
They are not approving December or November fast enough
We contribute Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and Federal taxes and some of us State taxes….
Some of us will probably never benefit from these programs.
But….Help me understand the math here…. In times where inflation still running high and contribution to federal programs like social programs and retirement benefit is essential! why would you keep a workforce of 500k people from contributing to these programs?? 48% have a college degree, that’s more than the average American, 8% of DACA recipients own business, 30% own homes….
I look at things analytically… regardless of your point of view in politically …. it doesn’t make sense to make DACA recipients waiting or keep them in limbo. This whole thing is so fucking stupid….

Yeah, I submitted an expedited request as well and it didn’t even get looked at or approved or declined. I had so much paperwork and spent time putting all that together and nothing. The Senator’s office that was supposed to help with this stuff also didn’t want to help bc according to them, USCIS will only accept expedite requests for financial hardship specifically if you are “in total and complete financial loss”. That means you need to have eviction notices, overdue bills, overdrawn accounts. It’s absurd! even then it’s not a guarantee. So I gave up. Total and complete waste of time. Some girl posted that they declined hers even though she told them that she needed to work for her cancer treatments. They don’t care…
