EAD card is at "Awaiting Delivery Scan" status of USPS
My EAD card was already received by the local post office at Feb/22/2021, and the status is "Awaiting Delivery Scan" since Feb/23/2021. I went to the offices two times, but the person there cannot find my letter in the office. I received the I-797 notice, so the address should be correct, so I assume the card is lost for some reason, what can I do? Should I ask for a replacement right now?

i765 Processing time increased to 3.5 to 11 months
I have submitted my family based GC documents(married to USC) in August and submitted the Request for Initial Evidence in October 16-2020. I completed my biometrics on Feb 19,2021.
My 6years on H1B completed in December,2020 and i am not working since. I was expecting at least EAD will be approved in few months. But seems like the processing times are increasing, USCIS website shows nearly 11 months. Is it really going to take 11 months or more for EAD approval? I am just taking care of the family with my savings .
I am really stressed about the processing timelines and being unemployed so long

EAD Renewal (On a L2 visa)
Hi,

If it helps this is my timeline (applying for an EAD renewal on an L2):
Nov 14th 2020 - Sent application via FedEx
Nov 16th 2020 - FedEx confirmed delivery
Feb 9th 2021 - Charged $410 by 'Chicago Lockbox'
Feb 22nd 2021 - Received receipt notice

*Note I've only received my receipt notice not the EAD itself*

This is my 4th EAD...! I was worried that this application has been lost and called USCIS approx 3 times while waiting for the receipt, although I don't think this helped my case at all.
I also submitted my application to the Texas lockbox and was intrigued to see it show up as the Chicago lockbox on my credit card.

So far they've had my renewal for 99 days, I submitted it in time to give me the max 180 days for processing, so hopefully I'll get it in time. My current EAD expires mid May.

Ead expedite advice and experiences please
I am currently interviewing and my ead is in process for close to 120 days (including weekends if that's counted). After going through the forum, I see that people here have taken various approaches to the expedite process. Mainly
1) Having job offer in hand and then expediting.
2) Expediting irrespective of job status, after 90-120 days of waiting.

Also, my green card is also in the process. I am on L2 visa. I don't know if that makes any difference to the whole situation.
My lawyer said that I cannot work with the receipt number but I have worked in the past with the receipt number.
Any 2020,2021 cases here?

EAD for L2 renew - 2 months submission and no receipt
Hi all,

I've submitted my EAD renew form and have the delivery confirmation by FedEX on December 15th 2020 to Vermont Center. Today is February 18th and I have not yet received any notification or receipt notice, which means I don't even have a receipt number to track my case on USCIS. Any advices on this?

Thank you

Card was produced
Hi everybody! My EAD status changed from “Card is being produced” to “Card was produced”. From what I see everybody else gets “Card was mailed to you”... But that’s not what I see right now. Did anybody else see this status on their cases?

H1B and Marriage Based-Green Card
So I am currently on F-1 status, and I am authorized to work through my STEM OPT period which is going to expire on March 11th, 2021. I married my partner last summer in June 2020, and we filed for my green card application the following September 2020. Got the receipt notice on early October 2020. I still haven't heard back from USCIS. Just today, my employer offered to sponsor me on a H1B, since they do not want to lose me and they said my EAD through marriage could take many more months to process as opposed to the H1B which apparently is moving relatively quickly according to the company's attorneys. I just wanted to ask: If I decided to go along with it and let my employer file a parallel H1B application on my behalf, will this affect my marriage-based Green Card application that is already processing since September 2020? Thanks
