小心得:
美國移民局有些細節做得亂七八糟 漏東漏西 建議參考時程
只要一有不隊馬上開始查詢其他人的狀況以及線上網站
申請文件裡面有一份文件是當收到文件時 對方必須簡訊跟email通知我收到
但完全沒有這份電子通知
只有一份I797C notice 而且是沒有封口的 所以信件隨時可能會掉出來或是被抽走
另外最後卡寄出了 根據前文 系統應該要通知並且記載USPS tracking number
結果也都沒有
我看了網站發現其他人都寄出了 而且算一算時程也是應該要收到了
後來就經由online chat拿到USPS的tracking no. 也順利拿到
如果可以改進的地方:
當初可以選用next day service而不是寄出後等了五六天才收件
我猜如果是申請高峰期的話 等了五六天 等於就順序又往後移了許多
畢竟每天都有很多申請文件
另外EAD收件地址 當初填學校國際事務處 因為怕萬一等上3~5個月
也不確定日後地址
通常在時程的card being produced通知一跳出來
應該就可以馬上變更成你未來兩三個禮拜會在的地方
這樣就不用特別跑去學校收件 因為疫情的關係 還要冒一趟風險
此外在申請費部分 我是用信用卡
有聽說有的人信用卡移民局一刷沒過卡 就不會刷第二次
有的信用卡可能因為一次被刷太大筆 就會鎖住或是懷疑詐騙
遇到這樣的狀況 申請文件進度就又更慢了
所以支票會更是萬無一失的方式 (確定帳戶有錢)
