Multi Year EADs

[clear485]

Good News guys !!!

Staring soon....Two year EAD will be granted

Announcement: "I'm also pleased to announce that we will be extending the validity period of the employment authorization documents that we issue to individuals who are waiting adjustment of status to lawful permit residenture or in colloquial phrase, the green card. Currently, adjustment applications are granted employment authorization documents with only a one year maximum validity. Beginning later this month, we'll start issuing these documents with a two-year validity period for aliens who are waiting adjustment of status if their application is expected to be pending for more than a year. This, again, is eliminating a persistent source of frustration for workers who are here, who have a pending adjustment application but have to go and renew their employment documents every single year. It's going to cut the paperwork there."

It's in a speech Secy. Chertoff gave. Here's the text.

The text is quite dense, the part where he talks about EAD is roughly in the middle.

Clear485 can you share your experience about "administrative review". My case is stuck in name check(letter from congressman). I inquired again via my congressman and now I got a letter that my case is undergoing administrative review. Please tell me what administrative reveiw means. I read in of your posts that you also got a letter from your congressman that says your case is undergoing administrative review.
