F1 EAD to i485 EAD
Hey guys hopefully you can help!
I was in the USA on an F-1 from Canada. I am on my OPT (expires Monday) and my job wants to keep me but I haven't received approval or any news about my EAD through the i485 application.
Priority Date: 4/30/18
Bio-metrics appt: 07/05/18
USCIS Changed Status to "Fingerprint Review was completed": 07/09/2018
CURRENT EAD EXPIRES: 08/13/2018
Processing at the NBC
I am currently at day 99. I know that they are behind and say 5-7 months processing time but I was wondering about a couple things:
Do I need to do my i-485 interview BEFORE they approve the EAD?
If I have a job can I expedite the process?
I also read that if after 90 days they haven't denied you they MUST approve it and then it just becomes a waiting game.
Honestly any help you can provide is helpful. I am the "breadwinner" for the house so I need to be out of work for as little time as necessary.
