304 days, still waiting for standalone #H4EAD. 7 months I am unemployed. 6+ expidete request were denied.I have two job offer but don't have #H4EAD to accept them. Justice delayed is justice denied. #H4EADdelays. @USCIS @DHSgov @wasdenbanias @UrJaddou @SecMayorkas @rnlawgroup

#USCISMadeMeQuit my professional identity, crippled my finances, burdened me with anxiety & depression - all this during a pandemic while I was in bereavement, and excelling at work was my major source of healing #H4EADdelays are so much more than job losses (1/5)

Today was my Wife’s last Work day. She didn’t leave her work at Will but #H4EADdelays forced her to Quit! She has to Stop critical Drug Dev work on #Alzheimers,Lost Imp Health Insurance to cover her High Risk Condition and No DL to even drive to Doctor’s Visit. Thank you @USCIS!

@FieldRoamer Those countries also privilege merit and skills-based immigration.

USCIS confirms it will suspend biometrics for ALL #h4 and #L2 applications as of May 17, 2021, in court filing in Seattle late Monday night. #litigationworks #H4EADdelays #L2EADdelays This is a necessary first step to restoring sanity to #H4EAD and #L2EAD adjudication times.

Why is it that giving 2 million green card without country cap to undocumented is fine but 140k visas for Indians stuck in decade long backlog is bad? Why are you discriminating against Indians? @RepZoeLofgren #LofgrenSwiftlyMeansNever

Unfortunate that these Frontline workers have to go through this.. please fix GC backlog for high skilled immigrants @POTUS @VP @RepZoeLofgren @DickDurbin

The only line where Indian high skilled immigrants stand for 9 years and the line does not move forward at all while others get to cut in front of the line simply because they were born somewhere else.

Thought!! why I am begging politicians to end greencard backlog. Paid >1 million in taxes over 10 years, risked my life fighting pandemic on the frontline, stuck in 195 years of backlog that I will not survive. Why m I fighting? Because I can’t tolerate discrimination. @POTUS

Exciting News: Dream and Promise Act of 2021 includes Documented Dreamers! This is a major step forward in ensuring #AllChildren who grew up here receive a clear path to citizenship. #ImproveTheDream

This is pretty much how immigration system in every country operates. But that calls for an overhaul of the skill based #immigration system. US cannot even get rid of birth country caps or give wasted GCs to doctors during a pandemic. Politicians pass bills so politics win.

The House just announced that it will consider immigration legislation on the week of March 15th to beat an April 1 deadline to pass bills that passed last Congress. Thank you @David_J_Bier! cato.org/blog/house-cou…

Wait 5 months for #h4visa extension decision which should take 5 minutes. Wait 100 years for Green card decision which should take 5 years. #immigrationreform ?Go figure! @AliMayorkas @USCIS @RepZoeLofgren @POTUS @VP @CongressmanRaja #H4EADdelays #GreenCardBacklog #H4Kids

We’ve blown the opportunity to maximize high-skilled immigrants who have come to this country. The backlog of green cards is immoral, and per-country caps punish countries that have a lot more to offer us. Congress needs to get something done on this issue. @SASCGOP
