ND 8th Oct for EAD still no approval.
Lawyer used to say it will take over 5 months...so he filed it in oct for renewal since my prev EAD was expring in feb.

ND 25th Nov'02

EAD hasn't been approved yet. Might have to go for IEAD at SFO. My EAD expires in the last week of this month.
 
EAD Receipts

I was checking with my lawyer on couple of issues & she mentioned that INS hasnt given receipts for any (rather, most?) I765 applications that were filed by their law firm starting Dec 02...Are there other out there whoc have applied in or after Dec 02 that have received receipts for EAD applications they sent in?

how can we check with INS on whether they received the 765 applications? And the checks have not been encashed either!

I got my interim EAD today from the local INS office in San Jose.
For your information:
4:30am arrived at INS office, about 50 people waiting in front of me
7:00am
INS office opens, there are around 150 to 200 people in line now
8:00am
enter INS office and pass security check
10:30am
talk to officer and submit my application
11:45am
leave INS office with my work permit
<b>
What might also be interesting for you is the fact that I have never
received this Action Letter. As I told them that I have never received
it they immediately asked for a copy of the cashed check. This was
absolutely sufficient to prove that I am eligible to apply for a interim
EAD. But I guess without some written document containing the
WAC number one might be send home to get a copy of the cashed
check first.</b>

Though I am not sure if this policy is changed after KKKroft effect..
 
I filed for EAD last Oct. 15, 2002 and it's been more than 5 months now and I haven't got my EAD yet. INS stopped processing last Nov. 2002 for most of the applications that they received probably because the employees were instructed to freeze the application by their managers because of the order from a top homeland security adviser to not release any EAD due to the job economic of the country and they want to prioritize the American Citizens first to get jobs before immigrants get it. Don't expect your EAD until next year because they won't release any EAD until the job situation becomes stable. What we need is to protest and walk to the BCIS offices. We should organize a rally so that BCIS will process our EAD again. Right now, almost all INS processing are at halt.
 
4everwaiting , calm down, there's nothing to worry about. Go to BCIS office and instead of protest just ask about interim EAD.
