EAD (WorkPermit)
Fields marked as * are required.
Just received my EAD
For reference, I'm a c09 filer in MA, my case went to NBC. I requested expedite because my work visa was expiring in early December so I needed my EAD to continue working.
Here is my timeline:
Aug 23 - Case received by USCIS (i-130, i-131, i-765, i-485)
Nov 7 (morning) - Biometrics done
Nov 7 (afternoon) - Called USCIS to open an expedite case (based on severe financial loss for myself and husband; and serious hindrance to my nonprofit employer)
Nov 8 - Followup from USCIS - expedite denied because I didn't provide evidence
Nov 8 - Contacted Congressman's office, asked for help in submitting evidence for my expedite case
Nov 9 - Filled out privacy release form
Nov 15 - Congressman's office assigned me a caseworker
Nov 16 - Submitted evidence through caseworker (my evidence included: a letter I wrote explaining my situation, a letter from my employer explaining hardship without my employment, 2017 tax returns for husband and myself, car payments, mortgage payment)
Nov 27 - Expedite approved!
Nov 29 - i765 approved, card in production
Dec 4 - Card mailed (status finally updated online and received a tracking #)
Dec 6 - Card delivered
My advice: if you have evidence of financial hardship to yourself/your employer or a job offer in hand, request an expedite as soon as your biometrics are done! Get your Congressperson's office involved! Follow up with people and make phone calls if you don't hear any updates!
Good luck my friends!
