  • J2 EAD authorization in 24 days

    Hi all,

    After reading many of these posts I thought I would be waiting 3 months for my EAD. I'm not sure if the summer months are just a particularly quiet time or if a lot of requests do get processed quite quickly but I just wanted to post my positive story here:

    July 20th 2015: Received notification that USCIS had my case.

    August 3rd: Received a job offer and requested to expedite my case due to financial loss.

    August 6th: Request denied. 'U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) acknowledges receipt of your request for expeditious handling of your Application for Employment Authorization (Form I-765) based on severe financial loss. Unfortunately, USCIS is unable to honor your request because a pending employment offer, or employment start date, does not qualify under USCIS's severe financial loss expedite criteria.'

    August 13th: Received notification that my card was being produced.

    All the best I'm also planning to come to New York IN J2. I have got my visa. I just wanted to know after landing how long shoudl I wait before I apply for my EAD and for EAD do I need to state any financial problem that I'm facing? Please advice. Thanks,

      Hey Anirban,

      You don't have to wait to request the EAD, do it as soon as you arrive. 24 days sounds very short to me, I waited 1 month and a half. I assume it depends on the city.

      Enjoy your stay in the US!
