Lets start with Feb Filers

well my EAD arrived today- and my AP came on Tuesday.

Feb08filer i read of the ups and downs with your situation- i am glad you said you can think clearly now you have spoken to the person at the 1800 number- at least now you know WHY the hold up......so i hope you can hang in there just a wee bit longer until your EAD comes......i shall keep you in my prayers!
 
oh Yiiippppeeee :) Your EAD is in :) Now your work can continue uninterrupted until the day that you want to switch for career upward mobility reasons. I am SO Happy for all of you who got your EAD's & AP's!

Thank you Hopeful, mind you, the lady didn't tell me that that IS indeed the reason, she ventured a gues, and I made my assumptions based on my knowledge of my paperwork. IT's all still a mystery actually, but I feel better when I can create logical scenarios which could be the cause of my misery :)

YES- i can work uninterrupted- thank goodness- and i think maybe your guess is on point cause you know your paperwork best!....i am hoping that you still get your documents this month- the RFE throws you off a week or 2 so just hang in there-and of course we will be here to support you!!

klik4it- my notices went like this
Current Status: Card production ordered:4/29/08 (last tuesday)
Current Status: Card production ordered AGAIN:5/03/08 (saturday)
Current Status: Approval notice sent: 5/06/08 (tuesday)
CARD IN HAND: 5/08/08 (today)

Your EAD should be here on sat.- worst case monday- but in any case your job say they will allow you 3 days to produce the card.....so i guess thats monday if we count working days.

I will pray that it is here waaay before then....and CONGRATS on the job!!!:)

Well - at least they are willing to reactivate you if need be. Thank goodness for that. I hope you get it on time! Good Luck.

My mom has this new-age hippy type outlook on life, and from her I've learnt this type of thing ...
be thankful when the house is dirty, because that means you have a house to live in
be thankful when there are dishes to wash, because that means your belly is full
be thankful when your legs hurt from standing 8 hours, because that means you have a job and will be able to continue being thankful for all three! :)

I know it's a bit new-Agy, but it does ring true

Thanks!!! i go back to work Tuesday at 8am. Rise and Shine!!!
i had all this free time and once i started working its like, where did all that free time go???
 
I am sending out my SECOND RFE out today. Each time the packet is thick as can be. This time though they insist to see 6 months of my husband's paystubs !!!!!! and a letter of employement from his HR department. and then the HR lady went and wrote "he is currently a Permanent Resident" ... where he is a USC !!!! but they'll just have to make do with this, because HR took a week to get this simple letter out. They have all the evidence of his becoming a citizen in January at USCIS. Let's hope they're somewhat resourceful this time.
 
Finally started getting some movement on our file the last few days. Here's an update...all of you still waiting, hang in there.

Saddie - Why did they want you to send in an I-864 instead of the I-864w? Were you eligible for the I-864w or did you just fill it out by mistake?
 
well looks like this thread is cooling down now that most of us have EAD and AP.....i think we are in for a longer wait than we actually think to get the ILs.
