AP Timeline from TSC

[GC_NJ_USA]

We are planning a trip to India in the last week of November. Our AP's are current till 11/21. Does anyone knows how long is it taking for TSC to clear AP these days? Should I file NOW or wait till I apply for my 5th EAD in August?

I would apply right away. E-file takes only 3 minutes to complete the application. I made a mistake of not applying until 6/16 when I am traveling on 10/1

Thanks bud - I efiled it yesterday itself ($305 pp, ouch!) Actually, I have been efiling for the last 4 years, but please refresh my memory - the only thing to send them are 2 pictures each, correct?

I guess you cannot apply more than 4 months before expiry of current one. You can apply after 07/21 if your current AP expires on 11/21.

DSLstart - 120 day rule is only applicable to EAD renewals and not AP.
