UPDATE: Got an update. Marriage based concurrent filing on 04/1/2018, got an update today - Testing & Interview. I am hoping to get a interview date soon (not sure how soon). Anyone has an idea what's the next step and approx. duration?

Thanks! I honestly don’t even think about the interview or the process as a whole. I know it’s gonna be at least another 6 months until maybe we’ll get the interview so I don’t sweat it at all. Whenever it happens, so be it. ????????♀️

The 180-day extension for the EAD is indicated in the Notice of Action that they will send you in receipt of the renewal package.
We just got our interview notice on a PD of March 2018, you will need to exercise some patience, your turn will come for the interview schedule, the USCIS system regularly sends out email updates but until the update says they have "taken action" on your case, you better believe your processing status has changed.
Anyways keep your tail up.
Cheers.

I’m in Seattle, filed family-baed in September 2018, EAD combo receive November 2018 and since then it’s been in “Ready to be scheduled” phase until 07/23 when it again “updated” but to the same status. Any idea what the update means since it still shows “ready to schedule”?

Also, I’m sending the EAD renewal package this week. Do they grant an automatic 180 day extension or do I have to wait for the new card to be approved in 4-6 months?

I got this email two days ago.

Seattle filer from Early March 2018. Interview was scheduled and then cancelled. Does anyone know why? Our Lawyer mentioned this was common issue that happened in July this year. I didn’t receive more updates
