    Theory about I-485 approval and EAD expirations

    I do doubt I do doubt about any connection between EAD expiration and I-485 Approval. Those people who have got their 485 approvals close to their EAD expiration is merely a coincidence! But, as many people said already, that no one can guess how INS works and thinks!?? I think any guess...
