we have pretty similar tumeline except that you got the interview and heard good news that your asylum application got approved. hang in there! i hope you will get the final decision soon. as for me, i am still waiting for an interview.

from what @shael728 described, i think it's pretty much the same thing @Zyam and i did when we called USCIS. i was not really sure that we were actually requesting an interim EAD because in my case history, these entries were added on april 30 (the date i called USCIS): "On April 30, 2015...

nope, this is the only status updated to my case (from received to CPO). i am sure yours will get updated soon.

just minutes ago, my case status has changed to CPO. so, the request for interim EAD helped expedite the original EAD status? i don't know! but i am glad it works! @Zyam how is it going with you? i do hope you get your card very soon too!

based on the timeframe that the office gave me, i agree with you that the request for an interim EAD wouldn't help alleviate the waiting. however, if an interim EAD is an additional option we could choose without losing anything, i suggest that anyone waiting for EAD card longer than 30 days go...

i was curious about whether or not interim EAD is still available, and i found this: http://knowingimmigrationlaw.com/handling-employment-authorization-document-ead-issuance-delays/ USCIS Field Offices no longer issue interim EAD, but the service center still handles interim EAD!

@Zyam, i read it somewhere in the forum as well that USCIS no longer issues interim EAD. i was surprised when you told me that you called and someone helped you to request an interim EAD for you. well, the only thing we could do for now is wait and wait! by the way, i just saw your good news...

hi @Zyam, thank you so much for the information on how to get to talk to an officer. i did get to talk to one and she went ahead and request for an interim EAD for me as well. i got a confirmation number, and she told me to wait either on an email or a mail within 30 days. i am just curious...

yes i called yesterday, and the voice system just said the exact same thing as in the USCIS website. i didn't go further to talk to a person. and as of today (185th day after my asylum application, 28th day after my EAD. application), my EAD status is still stuck at "received" :(

thanks @Zyam. i will try it on monday and hopefully my case status will be approved after the call! good luck to you too!

@shael728, i am curious of it myself. can you tell us the number that you called to inquire about your case. i will give them a call too on monday. thanks!

our timeline is essentially the same, just a few days off. today (04/24/2015) is my 181th day of my asylum application, but 21st day of my EAD application. however, my EAD case status is still pending for approval. which asylum office is yours? mine is chicago. i'm sure you will get your card...

congrats. what date did USCIS received your application? i am waiting for mine to be approved. mine was received march 30.

update: i received the confirmation letter the same day of my previous post (apr 9). so here is my time line so far: 03/26/15: EAD application mailed; 04/01/15: EAD application received. hoefully i will receive the EAD card soon!

normally, how long does it take for one to receice a confirmation letter after sending in the EAD application? my attorney said that she mailed the application on march 26 (day 152 on my clock). today marked the 14th day and i have not receiced the confirmation letter. should i worry? no...

i have about two months to reach 150 days and to file the EAD application. thanks, @ArlingtonJune for the great information. the thing is i might have to move to the other state before my 150th day, and i think that will stop the clock. can i just move to another jurisdiction, but use my...

you should talk to the international student office at your university to verify that your request to enroll only the needed credits in your last/graduating semester is considered a full-time status. at my university, students are allowed to take less than full-time status requirement in the...

I would say you don't have to tell your school because you have a permanent status and the report from school will not affect your current LPR status. However, it's just a matter of going to an international student office to have your status updated. It's better to properly close your SEVIS...

Yes, just like my sister's friend. His status had been at ready whereas all others were put into AP, and his status just changed to issued Sept 29, 4 pm (local time).

Yes, he was lucky, and we were so excited for him. He didn't expect to get the visas already, so you guys still on AP, you still have one last day to go. Slim chance but it's not yet over. Good luck guys!
