Fire: EAD Expires and Local office rejects temp EAD

[toolong]

I applied for renewal of my EAD 7/1/02 and haven't received approval and my current one is expiring in a month. The local office refuses to give temp EAD saying after 9/11, they no longer give out temp EAD. Is that true? What can I do at this point? Can I go to the district office instead? (e.g. Philadelphia District office overseeing DE, PA and WV?)

You should have received your EAD now. I applied at 08/13/2002 and got EAD 3 weeks later.

Maybe you should call IIO to see what happened. Hopefully, you can talk to a nice IIO and she will be able to find out your information even without EAC number.

To get temp EAD you have to wait for 3 months

Only after 3 months from EAD renewal application date (RD) you can apply for temp EAD, provided you havent recvd renewed EAD. Look in INS website.

 

[Awaiting approval]

when does the EAD expire?

May be if you go to the local office like couple weeks before, they'll honor the request.
