OPT寄到TX的同学不要再抱有幻想了，一起行动起来

转自opttimeline.com的评论区：
Just to make sure everybody know this important points who is waiting for lockbox reply and thinking they will give us receipt number Just to be realistic :
1) My congressman contacted lockbox and lockbox said they have no timeline because they have large number of applications.
2) There are millions of gc application which reach at last week of October at TX lockbox which causes this delay and one gc application approx give them 5000$ so thats why they need money they giving more prioprity to gc applications over OPT and lockbox is doing OPT process from so many years they know everything that OPT is time senstive matter but they dont give damm.

JUST TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE USE YOUR TIME WISELY BEFORE TIME IS NOT IN OUR HAND. DO THE ACTIONS LIKE

* OPT hashtag has been created for OPT delay.
https://twitter.com/hashtag/f1optlockboxdelay...
Please post about delay wether you send documents to Texas or arizona loclbox and tag big schools , Immigration companies , Embassy, USCIS and many more.
DONT WAIT !! HALF TIME IS GONE ALREADY . BE A PART OF FIGHT AGAINST OUR RIGHTS. DONT JUST WATCH IT ! DO THE ACTION !!
TWEET IT and please spread this hastag everywhere . #f1optlockboxdelay

* go to the website: https://www.dhs.gov/contact-cisomb , submit the form 7001 (don't send them emails becuase you get an auto-reply, please submit the form 7001)

* write emails to the American Immigration Lawyers Association to explain our situations, their address is executive@aila.org. Or you could write tweets at tag them @AILANational

*. contact the congressman and senators of your district

*. chat with USCIS Emma: type "chat with representative" to transfer to live agents —> ask the live Emma to transfer you to tier 2 (tier 2 is of higher level than the live emma you chat on USCIS website). Generally within 48business hours there will be an agent to call you back on your phone, and explain the delays and express our concerns.

大家动动小手，发一下推特，填一下7001表，给AILA发email，etc. 现在傻等没有任何用处！

心都凉了，来了美国这么多年，读完了 phd 也拿到了 offer，最后因为一个破 opt 一切都黄了，我真的不知道该说什么。

别慌 同是phd，觉得自己真是太不容易了……我在case tracker 里也track 了绿卡（485，131，765感觉他们一般是三个连号）的号 (最新的是MSC2190596830）抛开12月的一些case 最近的号差不多也是集中在10月底（怀疑是TX) 和11月中（疑似AZ）, 上周开始也出现了一些11/2的case..乐观点想的话 TX可能快跨越10月底的绿卡485了

先不要慌。可能是conspiracy theory。我们先把能做的都做了。

可能准备回国了，真的绝望了

millions of gc application，每年申请gc的人超百万？

在论坛里说再多都是没有用的，行动起来吧。

只是夸张形容多的吧

难道之前几年他们就没收到那么多gc申请吗？为什么今年能这么慢。。

刚刚提交了form 7001，希望早日能有个答复
