AP #3 RD: 01/20/2005; AD: 02/17/2005
EAD #3 RD: 01/20/2005; AD: 02/17/2005
I E-filed EAD and AP Concurrently. The Receipt Notice printed for my EAD right after e-filing instructed me NOT to self schedule appointment with local ASC for my EAD biometrics. It said that I will be receiving an appointment letter in the mail. So I waited for a couple of weeks for a EAD biometrics appointment in the mail. Since I did not get anything in the mail (of course, I got my Receipt Notices, but no appointment letters), I decided to go ahead with self scheduled appointment on 02/04/05. Well, it worked for me and I got the EAD and AP approvals in about ten days after that. Strangely, my spouse's EAD was filed minutes after mine and the Receipt Notice instructed for calling the 1-800 number to self schedule EAD biometrics appointment at the local ASC which we did. My spouse's case has also been approved y'day along with mine. I guess, sometimes USCIS means something and instructs something else. Makes you think huh....
