EAD Renewal with NBC Out of Processing Time
Hi Guys,

I'm currently in the process of I-485 c(9) application. My first EAD expired in Dec, 2018. I submitted EAD renewal in the beginning of Sept. 2018. It's now out of processing time.

I have read about NBC not caring about renewal EADs in other's posts before. I'm between jobs right now, and do not want to lose any opportunities just because EAD is delayed. Here are a few steps I'm going to take, please give me some suggestions or if anything that works better in this case.

1. Submit an “outside normal processing time” service request online.
2. Call USCIS, try to talk to level 2 for more updates about my case. If still pending review, then:
3. Contact congressman's office, wait for response. If still pending, try to expedite the case. If not able to expedite, then:
4. Contact Senator's office, wait for response.
5. Call USCIS periodically, and schedule an infopass to talk to an officer.
6. Contact Ombudsman for assistance.
7. Visit congressman and Senator's office periodically.

Waiting time for EAD
Hello Guys,

I have been a silence reader for the past couple of weeks. I am start to get really anxious due to the fact that my work permit is taking a long time base on the Adjustment of Status (got marriage last year)

My case was process by NBC, sending from California

RD: September 19th 2018
 
It 158 days past and I am getting frustrated. The status just say "Case was Received". Contacted my lawyer,and they mention that the processing time can take up to 6 months.I should expected to hear from them by mid of next month.

Any suggestion would be gladly appreciated !
Thanks !!

EAD card
Does anyone know if it’s possible that they approve your I-765 and sent you the card without updating your case on the website?

It took 180 days to get "Case was approved" message for my EAD
Concurrent NIW, Texas center (SRC)
Aug.31.18 = Receive Date
Sep.21.18 = Priority Date
Nov.21.18 = Biometrics notice to spouse
Dec.07.18 = Spouse biometrics done
Jan.10.19 = EAD expedition request to USCIS
Jan.14.19 = EAD expedition request to USCIS is denied
Jan.22.19 = Received Biometrics notice for me
Jan.28.19 = Biometrics done for me
Jan.29.19 = Fingerprint Review Was Completed
Feb.07.19 = EAD expedition request to congressmen
Feb.14.19 = Send expedition evidences to congressmen office
Feb.26.19 = New Card Is Being Produced message appeared (I-765)
Feb.27.19 = Case Was Approved message appeared (I-765)

It seems that finally my EAD card is approved. I'm not sure if it will be combo card or separate card of AP and EAD, because my I-131 status is still "Case is received" and nothing changed.
Also, I'm not sure if it is related with my congressperson expedition, because I didn't receive any notice from congressperson office. But I guess expedition worked?

So, I recommend any people who are suffering from delayed EAD to expedite via congressperson or senator, especially if it is out of normal processing time.

EAD
Hello,

I’ve been a silent reader for the last couple of months, but I’m starting to get a little bit worried. I petition an I-485, I-765 and I-131. My RD is Sep 28 2018. My biometrics 31 October 2018. Since then no news.

 I need to fly to my country next week and nothing yet. I contacted my congressman and he wrote to the NBC but they told him my case is still on the correct processing time. I drove three hours yesterday to a meeting with infopass at Norfolk and they told me they didn’t touch my case yet at the NBC center, that sometimes the officer that can have my case can be slower. In the website it still says “fingerprint fee received” and “your case was received” any help??
