Question 1

What does BoostMyCase do?

Accepted Answer

BoostMyCase helps you take action when your immigration case has been stuck for too long. We empower you to self-file a Writ of Mandamus—a powerful federal legal tool that forces USCIS to act on your long-pending application.

Since applications like Form I-485 (Adjustment of Status), Advance Parole (AP), and EAD do not offer premium processing, delays can feel endless. That's where BoostMyCase comes in—we help you create legal pressure that gets your case moving.

Our platform walks you through the entire process step by step, with court-ready templates, personalized instructions, and easy-to-follow checklists.

Once filed, this typically leads to one of the following outcomes:

- Adjudication of your case,

- A Request for Evidence (RFE), or

- Another formal response from USCIS.

It's a smart, streamlined way to move your case forward—built for everyday people, no legal background needed.

Question 2

What BoostMyCase Does Not Do?

Accepted Answer

We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice.

We don't advise on immigration strategy, such as when to interfile, file TUB, or submit Form I-485J — those decisions are entirely yours.

We cannot predict or guarantee whether your I-485 (or any application) will be approved or denied. Our service helps you self-file a Writ of Mandamus, which may prompt USCIS to take action on your case.

Question 3

What is Writ of Mandamus(WOM) lawsuit?

Accepted Answer

A Writ of Mandamus(WOM) lawsuit is a legal action that compels a government agency (like USCIS) to make a decision on a pending case. It's filed in federal court when an agency has unreasonably delayed action on your case.

Question 4

Will USCIS retaliate or hold it against me if I file a WOM?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely not. Filing a Writ of Mandamus is a protected legal right. It cannot be used against you now or in the future. USCIS must still decide your case fairly on its merits — just as they would for any other applicant. Thousands of immigrants have filed WOM successfully without consequences. With BoostMyCase, you're not taking a risk — you're taking control. Fast Movement: Most petitioners see case activity within 15–20 days after filing, as WOM actions prompt USCIS to review delayed cases promptly.

Question 5

What is your refund policy?

Accepted Answer

All sales are final once we have delivered your customized litigation packet. Our documents are tailored to your specific case and cannot be reused. However, we stand behind the quality of our service — our petitions are designed to prompt USCIS action, and in most cases, you'll see a response within 15-20 days of filing.

Question 6

How long does USCIS have to respond after I file?

Accepted Answer

By law, USCIS typically has 60 days to respond to a mandamus lawsuit after being served. Fast Movement: Most petitioners see case activity within 15–20 days after filing, as WOM actions prompt USCIS to review delayed cases promptly.

Question 7

What documents will I receive?

Accepted Answer

You'll receive a complete litigation packet including: a complaint form, civil cover sheet, filing instructions, mailing instructions, and a checklist. All documents are pre-filled with your information and ready to file.

Question 8

What happens after I submit my application and make the payment?

Accepted Answer

Once you submit your application, our team prepares your court-ready, ready-to-file Writ of Mandamus (WOM) documents tailored to your personal situation and jurisdiction. You'll receive a full packet for review — we'll then schedule a brief call to walk you through the signing process and explain each step of the filing instructions in detail.

Question 9

What are the next steps for filing my WOM?

Accepted Answer

After reviewing and signing your documents, you'll visit the federal court (on the same day or a date of your choice) to file your case. Only the primary plaintiff needs to be present; dependents are optional. You'll pay the standard $405 federal court filing fee and then follow the rest of the simple step-by-step instructions we provide.

Question 10

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Our service costs $699, which is a one-time fee. This does not include the federal court filing fee (typically $405) which you'll pay directly to the court when filing.

Question 11

What if USCIS doesn't respond?

Accepted Answer

Most petitioners see case activity within 15–20 days after filing. If USCIS doesn't respond, you can continue to follow up through the legal process. Our support team is here to guide you through next steps.

Question 12

What if I need help after filing my WOM?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely — we'll continue to support you even after filing. Once your WOM is filed and your 60-day response clock starts, if there's no visible progress (e.g., approval, RFE, or update) by Day 15, we'll try to help you get in touch with the government attorney who might be handling your case. This ensures you can request updates directly and know your case is being reviewed. In the rare event that a judge considers dismissing your case, we'll guide you through the appeal process so your filing remains active and actionable.

Question 13

Do I need a lawyer for this?

Accepted Answer

No, our service is designed for Pro Se litigants (people representing themselves). However, we always recommend consulting with an attorney if you have complex legal questions or concerns.

Question 14

What cases are eligible for mandamus?

Accepted Answer

For green card applications, we recommend waiting at least 1 year from the receipt date. For Advance Parole (AP) and EAD, a 6-month wait from the receipt date is typically sufficient.

Question 15

How do I prove USCIS received my filing?

Accepted Answer

After filing with the court, you'll mail the documents to USCIS via USPS certified mail with delivery confirmation. You'll then upload this Proof of Service from the court to our dashboard to track your case status.

Question 16

What happens after USCIS responds?

Accepted Answer

Once USCIS responds, they typically either approve your case, request additional evidence, or schedule an interview. You should upload their response to your dashboard for our records.

Question 17

How can I track my case status?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Your dashboard allows you to monitor your case progress and upload any responses from USCIS. Most petitioners see case activity within 15–20 days after filing.
