Any idea how much time its taking to get the EAD card after approval??
I am starting a new job on feb12th and my case was approved on feb3 . I was wondering if I will get the card on time.
If not what should I show as a proof of legal status to work??

TIA

EAD card not in the mail yet

My EAD was approved a little over 2 weeks ago and I haven't received the card yet. Is there anyone in a similar situation?

I called up the NSC 1-800 number to find out what needs to be done, and the customer care rep said that I would need to wait for atleast 30 days

I got mine in 5 days. Its a pretty standard response so try calling again.

I called twice today and once yesterday and all the customer care reps had the exact same answer . "Please wait for 30 days blah,blah ...".

Seemed like they were reading it out from somewhere.

Wonder why it says "Case approved,card mailed , if you don't receive it in 14 days..." when I check the case status on-line, when the standard wait time seems to be 30 days. I had read a couple of posts from those who are waiting for RFEs and they had all been asked to wait for 30 days before checking back with NSC.
