Hi All,

Just wanted to share my experience regarding Interim EAD at Cherry Hill, NJ office:
My EAD renewal application was pending with BCIS since Nov'2003. I went to the Cherry Hill, NJ office and got the Interim EAD approved. It was over 90 days since my EAD RD but, not over 90 days since EAD ND. I was asked to present the following docs:
I-765 application,
Original old EAD,
Original passport,
Original SS card,
Original NJ driver's license ( as a proof for resident of NJ)

I didn't have to pay any fees and also I
didn't have to give any photos. It took about 5.5 hrs. by the time I reached there to getting the actual EAD card.

I-485 RD: Nov'2001
I-485 ND: Dec'2001

Hi canus_immi,

Thanks!
The office didn't ask for the copy of I-140, neither he asked for the copy of I-485. It is valid for about 8 months.

Hello 001,

How to decide which office(newark or cherry hill) to go?

>> Cherry Hill office was closer to my house than the Newark office, so I decided to go to the Cherry Hill office.

Any idea whether these offices are closed on wednesday?
>> Yes, the office is closed on Wednesday and also on Federal holidays. The hour of operation for Cherry Hill office are 8AM - 2PM.

Do we need to take an appointment?
>> No. You can just walk in and you have to take a number.

What time did you go?
>> I went there at about 9:00AM, got a number (5X). But, since the room was full, the security officer asked me to come back after an hour. When I went there after 1.5 hrs. I was allowed to get in.

I hope it helps.
