Respected Senator,
RE: My Pending I-485 (Adjustment of Status i.e. Green Card) application at Vermont Service Center
I am a current resident of Bellevue, WA, working at XXX as a XXX in their XXX Group.
My Employment based I-485 application for adjustment of status was filed on May 15, 2002 in Vermont Service Center. On Jan 29, 2004 I received a Request for Evidence (RFE). The response to which was received by USCIS on Apr 16, 2004. Although the letter from USCIS stated that my case will be reviewed within 60 days of receipt of RFE, it has been well over 60 days, and I have received no update on my case. Overall it has been over 2 years since my I-485 was filed.
This wait for the I-485 to be approved has been excruciating to say the least. I and my family have been living in constant dread and insecurity for the last few years. Under the current provisions, there is no way I can progress in my job responsibility, so my professional growth has effectively been thwarted. I have also been unable to make any important decisions in my life, including - investing for my son’s college education, investing for our retirement, buying a house or enrolling in college for higher education - due to the uncertainty of the I-485 process.
For being a rule-abiding, tax-paying member of the society, and hopefully an American Citizen in the future, this is a painful way to be welcomed to the "land of opportunity". And I am saddened by the fact that, not just me but thousands others are caught in the quagmire of the current immigration process.
I plead you to urge USCIS to take action on my case. Any assistance that you provide will be appreciated and remembered.
Sincerely,
