This form is to confirm that you are joining Robert Cohen's class-action lawsuit against USCIS as a reserved plaintiff. The named plaintiff and reserved plaintiff enjoy the same legal rights and benefits.

Fees: $50 per plaintiff (named & reserved)
Definition for our class: those who have no receipt and those who have not enjoyed the benefits of a timely processed OPT/EAD

According to the most recent call with Rob on 2/1/2021:
1.This is a special case with an unusual fee arrangement so that is why it is taking some time because there are several internal levels of approval to go through.
2. Team is working on the complaints, which will be ready within the next day or 2.
3. Case will be filed in Ohio.
4. The case will be filed within the next couple of days (hoping would be this Thursday).
*Rob will send out an email to everyone once he gets everyone's contact.

Here are our main request proposals:
1. We want to see USCIS adjudicate our case and approve our EAD card within 90 days of the application delivery.
2. We want USCIS to promise that no applications shall be rejected or denied if the applicant has not received a receipt notice in 60 days. We demand USCIS allow the applicant to refile their applications or provide supplementary materials if requested.
