Did you have SSN prior to this? Like through OPT or H1B? cause I heard your SSN doesn't change, they just give you a new card

Nope, new SSN.

Actually if you already have SSN prior to applying for green card (eg from OPT or H1B), your number will stay the same. Of course if you don't, they'll give you a new one.

the "response sent" is that email you received asking you for evidence.

As USCFFS said, the update represents the email you got. You will not get anything else in the mail because you got the email. If you faxed the evidence, now just wait. Once the officer reviews it, he/she will also look at your entire file at which point the officer either approves/declines the expedie request OR sends an RFE if your file is missing something. In my case, he sent an RFE, I responded, they reviewed my response and approved the EAD. Be patient. See my timeline for reference, I requested my EAD to be expedited on 10/17.

Hey September folks...has anyone who have not expedited received there EAD as yet?

[gradstudent2018]

Just got an update that my card is mailed!!
Thanks everyone for your help and answers

[seattle2903]

I have 2 questions regarding the EAD/AP.

1. I did not see anything about it on the letter or the card, but am I required to carry the EAD with me at all times?
2. If I were to travel to Canada for a short day trip and cross the border by car with my US citizen husband, should I expect any issues with using the EAD/AP? My F1 is still valid and I am maintaining my full time student status, too.

Case received 5th September

Hello everyone!
Married USC april 2018
Case received 2nd week of september
Biometrics approximately a month later
After that, nothing has changed going to 90days now and it still shows case received in all case status.
However, my USC wife and i decided to move to another city in the same state, please can anyone tell me the implication of such move?
Does it mean my adjustment of status case will now be transferred to the new city and interview held in the new place relocated?
Pls can someone with more insight shade more light on this move i'm about to make.
Thanks

Each zip code/ address is under a particular field office jurisdiction. So basically even if it’s in a new state your field office can change based on your address. You should notify USCIS of your new address so that they will be able to update your address on file. I believe they should also update you of your new field office if it changes. If you should go on their website and put it your zip code for your new address it will tell you of your new field office if the zip code is not under the jurisdiction of the old field office. All the best!

I know these info based on reading...

Thanks for good wishes!

On my SSN it says "Can only work with DHS authorization", will social security send me a new card or I need to apply for it in person to Social Security Office?
