My AOS experience and EAD expediting process
Hello fellow residency seekers, I would like to share my experience because I have been following this blog and it has helped me with the anxiety that I am pretty sure you all know.

I brief story of my case is the following. I came here as a J-1 student on August 2010. I was here as an exchange student and during this time I met my husband. We started dating, and one year later I have to leave. We decided to keep dating, and try to make it work long distance. He visited me 3 times during the next year, and we vacationed together in Mexico. After almost a year apart, we decided to get together and I moved back to the US with an F-1 VIsa.

Due to the 2 year residency agreement, every time I had off (when I was not going to school), I had to go back home. Last Summer, after many miles traveled and a lot of money that was spent, we fulfill the 2 year residency agreement. And with all the anticipation, we finally got married last year, on October 2nd.

We hired an immigration lawyer because with a loaded last semester in school, we did not have time to work on the paperwork for the Adjustment of Status. Once I graduated, I was offered a job to start on January. I waited patiently and since I did not get a response from USCIS 2 weeks before the date of starting my new job, so I ask for my EAD to be expedited.

Here is my timeline:
 
November 3rd: Packet sent (I-765, I-485, I-130)
November 5th: Priority date
November 13th: Cash checked
November 17th: Receipt notice
November 20th: Bio-metrics appointment letter (for December 4th)
December 4th: Bio-metrics taken
January 7th: Called customer service to ask for EAD to be expedited
January 11th: USCIS requested work offer prove, letter with prove was faxed that day
January 13th: Request was assigned to an officer for response
January 14th: USCIS approved expedition process
January 15th: "My card is being produced"!

Nothing else has changed yet, but I am excited because I will be able to start working!!! How long will it take for me to get my card?
