I am still waiting for my EAD


Actually today is day 81 from my received date as shown on my timeline and there is still no recent LUD for my work permit , that is why I believe that the RFE may have affected it somhow.
 
NO you are on day 72. So expect something around this time. Count from your notice date, thats when they start working on your file.

ok

Ok, Now I understand, but I am actually getting today as day 73 though.

Thanks , so i guess any day now I should be hearing something as I am still within the timeframe. I'm not really that impatient , its just that I got a job offer and I really need it so I can start to work.

Ok adom.2007, your timeline is pretty similar to mine , yours being two days earlier so I guess we can count down together at this point.

When is your interview ??

Also we all have to remember that cases are dealt with on an individual basis and it all depends on who is handling your case. Some officers are more efficient than others. For example, the RFE that they requsted, I had sent it initially so I basically sent them the same thing that they asked me for.

Anyways, good luck to you.
 
RFE and EAD

Hi all,

I just received an RFE(I-485) for not sending my wife's W2 forms. I went through a lawyer and all she asked for was tax returns which my wife provided. Yesterday she received request for initial evidence which states that "you are ineligible for interim employment authorization until 90 days after initial missing evidence is received". My question now is does this mean that my clock for the EAD starts from when they receive the evidence, which means that I will not be getting my EAD until beginning of November? Or does it mean that if I do not receive my EAD 90 days after I filed(July 2, so October 2) that I can't ask for an interim EAD from my DO until after 90 days from the day they receive additional evidence? Since the difference is one month I am hoping that it's the latter since based on current processing time I am expecting my EAD late September. I know that some of you have answered related questions but any information will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks to everyone in advance!

Chris

Probably the RFE will delay your EAD. So hurry and send in the information they asked for.

There are no interim EADs being issued no more :(

Ok, here's the deal. There is still no LUD for my EAD. However I called USCIS today and was transferred to an officer who told me that my EAD was approved on July 20, 2007 and ordered on July 25, 2007. Now I still haven't received any approval letter in the mail (August) 1, 2007.

How long after approval people normally get their cards? and

Any idea why there is no LUD for my EAD even though my case is approved? When I pointed that out to him, he said I should not worry about it.

Thank you for all your feedback and help& support thus far.

I am really praying that it was not sent and delivered to the wrong address.
 
So RFE didn`t delay your EAD

Congratulations

Your ND was 5-16 and your EAD was approved 7-20.
So RFE did not delay your EAD
Why are you worried about a wrong address-Did you change it?

Semaja

Did you can the 1-800 number or the DO? Also, where was the officer..do you know?

ssp77
 
I called the 1-800 number. I do not remember the name of the officer I spoke to but it is not one the regular representatives.

I was transferred from a rep to the officer because when i check online or via phone it is saying that they received my application on 5/16. It dosent say that my case is approved.
 
Ead

Ok, I just checked the website and this is what I found fo my EAD. I am not sure if the approval notice and the card will arrive at the same time.



Application Type: I765, APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION

Current Status: Approval notice sent.On August 1, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I765 APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

Online LUDs are unreliable. I got approval of my GC without a change online on my LUD, so dont worry about it.

You should get your card within a week of it being ordered.

Congrats!
 
Thanks for the response myredskins, I sure hope that this does not delay my EAD. Actually Semaja's news makes me feel much better since it seems that both of us received the same RFE. Hopefully we have the same timeline Semaja! That would mean that I would be receiving my EAD around Sept 20... Thanks and good luck to all!
