Approved, but ran into another issue.. expired DL

My BF's REAL ID expired a few weeks ago which means he cannot book a rental car for our upcoming trip yet. He hasn't received his EAD card yet but got a silent DACA approval on 04/20 and EAD approval today 04/22 ..

We're probably going to have to delay our trip a bit regardless for other reasons but is there a way to speed up this process or do anything so he can renew his DL ASAP?

Popcorn made with olive oil

My grandma is eating popcorn every day now pretty much and we make it on the stove with olive oil so it's a bit healthier.

Who else makes it with extra virgin olive oil?

For those who have never tried it it doesn't alter the taste of the popcorn in my opinion.

11/19 SILENT APPROVAL!!

Hi.. I'm very pleased to say that my boyfriend got approved!😭🙏 I actually wrote this message a few hours before he checked because I had an intuition it was going to come. 

 I live in Canada and we had a trip booked so we would've been out thousands of dollars if he didn't get it on time and I miss him ofc so we had a few weeks left and I've been praying every day, worrying and I saw how stressed he was getting, and I felt so bad for him: 

I'm also going through some medical issues & my own stressor so things were starting to pile up, and I was praying for him and all of you guys to get it on time. I woke up today and checked the sub as usual, and was a larger than usual amount of approvals on his date. Here's the timeline:

11/17 he submitted 

11/19 they received it & biometrics reused 

The month of 03 he got a new access code for his acc

04/15 reached out to a US rep in his state 

04/20 Silently APPROVED!

 I don't think reaching out did anything since it was less than a week and he did not get in contact with USCIS yet so I think this all just happened without any push. I'm very happy for him and I'm going to continue to pray for you guys.

I am very overwhelmed by these things..

I'm very very stressed out right now because of these three main things that I would love a prayer for:

  1. I've been having an ear infection for over a week and the healing is very slow and I'm worried of when it's going to fully go away

  2. I have a driving examination coming up, and I'm still hesitant and nervous while driving. I want more confidence and to be able to feel safe behind the wheel and pass the examination

  3. and finally my long distance boyfriend is waiting on a big approval for something he needs for us to visit each other again.

Thank you so much and I will keep you in my prayers too. God Bless.
