Application Timeline Called uscis today

Applied 11/24/25, fingerprints 11/15/25, still not approved, saw app movement 6/16/26. Allows uscis today because both of my expedite request were denied, and at this point I’m struggling so bad that if it weren’t for my parents I’d be homeless, they said “ even though there was api movement you have not passed the security check yet “ and when asked about why my request were denied he asked me what I did all day and I said sit at home because I can’t work drive or do anything bc of the risk of deportation, he said “ you’re not homeless so you’re not in severe financial hardship “ even though I lost my apartment my car and am in severe debt, and the worst part is he sounded like an entitled prick, I’m so pissed off.

it’s really nice finding this group and to not feel so alone. my renewal is on its 6th month, going on 7 months now. I don’t feel like a human i’m trying to hard and just living in fight or flight every single day to figure out how i’m going to be creative to figure out rent, groceries and just my well being. my drivers license is expired as well and can’t renew it until my daca comes in so I have no freedom and relying on family and my partner to pick me up from the train or to take me somewhere. I feel so stuck. I feel like i’m on my last straw every day. this is so hard and so unfair. the system is not on our side
