my EAD experience - received card
Hi everyone,
This forum has served as a tremendous source of information and community, so thank you to those that run it, and of course everyone that shares their journeys.
I received my EAD + AP card on May 12 2018. Here is my category and timeline:
a) marriage to USC, applied for I-485, I-130, I-131 and I-765 to the National Benefits Center.
b) Application submitted / received date Dec 22, 2017
c) Receipt date dec 29 2017
d) Biometrics Appointment notification date Jan 16 2018
e) Biometrics Date Jan 25 2018
f) 485 status change to 'ready to be scheduled for interview' on Feb 8 2018
g) 765 status change to 'We ordered a new card' on May 5 2018
h) 765 status change to 'We mailed your new card' on May 10 2018
i) 765 status change to 'Post Office picked up your card' on May 11 2018
j) Received my Approval Notices for 765 and 131 by postal mail on May 11 2018 (the 767 approval notices)
k) Received my combo card on May 12 2018
I turned email + mobile notifications on in May, and found them surprisingly consistent.
Fortunately, I did not receive any RFEs. I did not talk to any Level-2 officers on the USCIS helpline. I made one call to the helpline late April to ask about process to work with Level-2 officers, but after talking to my lawyer, decided not to proceed w/ Level-2 requests as back then I wasn't past normal processing times.
Happy to answer any questions, and all the best for everyone waiting for progress :)
