Hi guys

I am tryin to track what the NSC processing times are for these applications currently and what applications they are approving right now. Also if there is any connection between the second ead/ap approval and 140/485 approvals.

So if anyone of you have got their EAD/AP approved recently from NSC, please post.

my EAD just got approved today. they are ordering the new card for me and going to mail out when the card is ready. still haven't heard anything about 140 :(
 
My wife's second EAD got approved

I just got a e-mail from USCIS, said my wife''s second EAD got approved (RD:11/29/04), LUD for EAD was updated to 01/27, but there's no LUD changes on I-140 and I-485. Do you guys think it could triger my I140 case?
EB2, Concurrent, None RIR
I-140 RD:11/05/2003
I-485 RD:12/11/2003
 
well i hope it does trigger your 140 approval :) but a LUD change in 140/485 is a good sign which is not happening in your case. somehow they seem to be stuck with EB3 cases and we dont see many EB2 concurrent approvals. Only NSC knows their strategy. I dont :)

NSC EAD Issuance Practice - Valid from Approval Date

The Nebraska Service Center is currently issuing EAD or renewal valid from the "date of approval" of the application and not from the date of expiration of existing EAD except the F-1 OPT EADs. This practice reminds the EAD applicants of importance of applying for an EAD sufficiently early on in order not to experience expiration of existing EAD before the renewed EAD is approved and issued. This is particularly important considering the fact that the USCIS HQ takes a position that for the purpose of the eligibility of 245(k) benefits for the EB-485 filers, the employment during the gap is considered unauthorized employment and such period will be added to the period of six-month unauthorized employment for the purpose of 245(k) benefits for the EB-485 filers. The EB-485 waiters who are subject to the EB-3 visa number retrogression should be mindful of this advisory since they will have to keep extending their EADs for a number of times during the period of visa number unavailability and such gaps between the EADs will deprive them of the 245(k) benefits and their EB-485 can be denied for the unauthorized employment which is a bar to adjustment of status under the immigration regulation.
The NSC practice is reportedly dictated by its needs to process the EAD cards through the automated production system and it is not likely that the NSC will change this practice in the future.

Did you guys notice any change in the date approved on the EAD renewal? What is the EAD validity? Greater than 1 yr?
