Waiting for EAD Approval
Dec 7, 2015, EAD renewal application received by USCIS
Dec 10, 2015 we received your application notice received

Today is the 53rd day, and I am beginning to freak out.
I have work at a fortune 500 company and my current authorization expires on April 5, 2016
my company already notified me that they would terminate my employment unless I provided them with a new one on April 6, 2015.

I live in San Francisco, CA and I had renewed my EAD twice before and the longest it took was 45 days (including authorization and having the card in my hand)

Waiting for EAD approval
Hello,

Here's my experience.

I'm on a L2 visa and applied for EAD through the Vermont office. USCIS received my application in October 22nd and after that nothing else happened. I submitted a claim on day 75 and got a response that my application was "within processing time". Already received a message (after another claim) stating that I didn't need to do the biometrics, since I already had done that for my visa.

Today is day 96 and I just called USCIS for an update on my case. The representative submitted a claim and said I should receive a final response on that "up to the next 30 days".

I must confess I was really concerned with my case, but after reading about other people's stories here in this forum I kind of calmed down. Hope they can answer me back in next 7 days actually...

Awaiting OPT EAD
Hello,

I am from PA.

I applied for OPT EAD back in November, they received the package on 2nd Nov, 2015 and today makes it 86th day. I have a job offer which I should start as soon as I can(When I get the EAD). My application is processed at Vermont Service Center. I see that the regulatory processing time is 3 months for VSC. Is it possible that they might take beyond 90 days? I am in tough spot because I am not sure how long the company can wait.

I created a service request exactly on 75th day, just stating "Please update me of the current case status, as I haven't seen the status changing from 'Case Was Received'" Should I create an expedite request? Now that the 90days time frame is approaching, will it make any difference?

This wait after 75 days has really kept me clutched and anxious. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

EAD (with 485, 131)
I live in NJ.

My PD: Oct. 9th 2015
Fingerprint done: Nov. 6th 2015

Then nothing happened and my online status have been shown as "case was received." I have two job offers both starting on Feb 1st so I got really annoyed.
Last Weds (1/20), I met with an officer for an infopass appointment and could not find out anything.My lawyer then went again the next day and he told me that he requested them to expedite the case. I also wrote to local congressman.
Not sure if anything is related but on Friday (1/22) my case status changed to "card production." And my i-485 status also changed to "ready to be scheduled for an interview."
Today (1/25) I checked again and it states that later on Jan. 22nd, my case was approved.

So...........I am hoping that after "card production" and "case was approved" status.... I will be able to get my card before Feb 1st so I can take the job.
Anyone has an idea of how long do i have to wait for them to mail my card to me? I am thinking about calling them tmr again.

Ughhhhhhhh please send it to me soooon

Anyway, good luck everyone!!!!

EAD and Advance Parole applications
All,

Here is my case history for routine EAD and AP renewal.My current EAD and AP expire on 1/30. This was a total of 111 days!!!

10/6 application receipt date
12/19 attorney called to request status, was disallowed despite 75 days threshold and asked to call back on 1/16
1/6, attorneys called and logged SR's for me and spouse, verbally told 15-30 days. Received email that it will take 60 days
1/13, went for infopass, lady was kind and created another SR requesting processing by 1/28 as I had to travel abroad on ,work.
1/21, went again for infopass for advance parole, which was approved, but refused to entertain EAD inquiry
1/21, sent inquiry via local Congressman, he responded with 45 day turnaround.
1/25, checked status in the afternoon and it states card are being mailed.

FYI - This was processed by Nebraska Service Center.

This anxiety is completely painful mentally, psychologically and emotionally draining. Hang in there folks.... and best of luck to everyone in obtaining the cards.

Format of Service Request
Hi All,

My EAD request is going to complete 90 days tomorrow.

I had raised a request when it was 75 days. Got a response saying "Its inline to be processed"

When I raised a request last time the number was something like this

"T1B0121602458NSC"

is it the correct category of Service request ?

Or something different ?

I am asking this because I was wondering if this should start with "SR" or similar ?
