L2 EAD - Texas Service Center - Case was Received
I'm on L2 EAD and applied for my EAD Extension in Texas Service Center

PD - Apr 27
Application Received by USICS: Apr 28
Case status : Case was Received.
No Bio-Metrics done.
On 76th day I have submitted service request to check about my status and yet to received any response.
Today overall its 86th day and no response so far. It's really frustrating with the USICS processing schedule.

Prompt service by Potomac SC
My EAD extension case was still in received by July 18th - 84th day with Potomac processing center so I went ahead and submitted an e-request. On the very next day (85th day) my status changed to card ordered. I wanted to verify whether it was mere coincidence and checked the preceding and succeeding numbers, sadly they are still in case received status. I hope to receive my card in 10 to 15 business days.

L2 EAD Nebraska center
Hi,.

I had applied for EAD on April 12 and still the status is case received.. I was in H1B in 2013 to 2014 and when I filled in the ead application I had selected yes for " have you applied for employment authorization previously with USCIS" by misunderstanding that my H1 b details should be provided and I had attached my previous petition papers..

Is there any chance because of the above error my case cane be delayed/ rejected ? If yes can I apply again ?

Ead based on pending asylum
led the asylum on December /11/2016 .. then I have to wait 150 days without allowance to apply for EAD based on the immigration law ... seeking political asylum in the Land of freedom seems to be pain in the a**... however, it says in UCIS website EAD for asylum seeker (c8) shouldn't exceed more than 30 days to be issued after they complete the waiting period of 150 days ... it meant that asylum seeker shouldn't be hanging more than 180 days to get their EAD... If they give me the money I spent here I'll take it and leave the country .. the world is big , and many countries will respect and encourage those who aim to make change or lead political reforms to their countries which are ruled by brutal dictators and monarchs ...surpriselly, the US government has warm and friendly relations with my government .. selling 110 billions \$ worth of arms to those dictators... I start thinking about going on YouTube and talking **** and criticizing this deal ...maybe YouTube will pay me if I get many views ??... great ideas to make money starting come in up using my political knowledge ..

Application received : April 17, 2017 (Day 1)
1st SR : July 1, 2017 (Day 75)
Visited USCIS center : July 10, 2017 (Day 84)
Reached out to congressman : July 12, 2017 (Day 86)
Created a request with ombudsman: July 15, 2017 (Day 89)

Anyone who applied around this time? I have been checking +/- 100 numbers before and after me and I am literally the only one left hanging amongst 200 numbers! I am feeling super helpless as my job is at stake. I am not sure if I am trying too hard or something. Literally ALLLLL the applications were mailed except mine. I dont get it. My congressmans office hasnt been helpful either.

EAD pending
This is my 4th EAD renewal and I have the worst experience this year.

Vermont Office EAD based on I-360

March 20th - USCIS received my paperwork and this is pretty much it...they can't give me updates because it is a sensitive case.

My lawyer said that I can work even when my application is pending because I am legal in country and this is my 4th renewal. But I am still scared to work without a card itself. Does anyone know anything about it?
