Does anyone know if a biometrics is required for EAD? I haven't received my biometrics appointment and EAD. The online status for my EAD shows it's still pending but the officers in my separate INFOPASS told me it's approved in early October. Can they approved my EAD w/o taking my FP (or they use my FP got in visa interview before I came to USA or the FP got at the port when I arrived in USA)?

Is Interim EAD still an option today (or there's no such thing anymore)? Thanks!

ezfaq, suggest you schedule Infopass appointment again. you should have received your EAD card by now.

Hi alf123, NOA date is 10/23/2009. Actually I didnt get the bio letter for a long time. I finished biometrics just yesterday and the EAD card was ordered the same day. No word about IL letter yet though since bio was done yesterday i guess. There was a touch on I-485 yesterday, so hopefully that means the computer is scheduling an interview? time will tell.. lol

:alf123,
So you are considered to be an october filer. I think you should make an infopass.

I have a confession to make I had read my NOA date wrong . My priority date is October 14th and not 21st.
I just received my Interview LETTER in the mail scheduled for January 7th. Hip Hip Hurray!!!!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

ahruo,

Need reply

Hi all, i have some few questions and some concern.
I application was received at chicago on the 23rd of oct 2009 and i received receipt shortly after that.
Had my biometrics dome nov 23 2009 but have not yet gotten any EAD in the mail likewise hasn't gotten no interview date.
Also my online status is not updated, it was only touched nov 24th a day after my biometrics.
I will love to know if something is wrong.

No nothing is wrong, give it about a week or so for any new updates.
 
HEY rpt1020,
If you don't mind me asking, where is your DO? It looks like some DO's process goes pretty fast.
 
Did you get LUD/SLUD before interview letter?

Question for all those who got interview letters so far -

Did you notice a LUD / soft LUD in the online status of I-130 and/or I-485 before you received the interview letter in mail?

Thanks!
