J2 ead card - Nebraska
Hi,

I just wanted to share my (very long) timeline because I found it very helpful to read everyone else's.

J2 renewal (but it's the same pile) ead card took 124 days by Nebraska Center

December 14 2015: case received
February 29 2016 (77 days): inquiry case status by phone and online application
March 21 2016: answer inquiry that I'm somewhere in line - no usefull information at all
April 8 2016 (118 days): ead card approved (this date is shown on the card but nobody could officially confirm that so I had to wait until I had the card) They told me it could take up to 60 days to produce and mail the card because of problems in that department. I was desperate... Luckily it didn't take that long anymore:
April 13 2016: card mailed
April 16 2016: card received

I go back to work tomorrow. My employer has been very understanding. I was home since March 2.

I could only apply for my renewal after receiving my new DS2019 which I could only apply for 90 days before the previous one expired, March 2.

Hang in there... You get it eventually, but it just takes forever and is very frustrating to know nothing at all about the expected timeline. I hope this helps a little bit.
