>>did u get the actual EAD card when u went to the local ins office?
Yes you get a actual card. you submit ur papers, then after a while they call u in - take ur phote and your fingerprint and instantly give u a card
>>or was it some approval letter kind of thing?
no approval letter
>>will they stop the EAD card processing once u get the Interim EAD?
they will not stop the processing. but i have heard people say that sometimes the ead is delayed. but there is nothing to worry about. i got mine after 3 months of interim EAD which was valid for 8 months. u can read a detailed description of my experience by searching my name or on Ciba\'s site.
Please clarify....

Hi hariA,
I would like to thank u for posting ur exp. I am in LA and RD is 04/04/01 and ND 04/23/01. It will be 90 days by JUl 04 for me to go to the INS center to get an Interim EAD.
My wife needs an EAD desperately as she has a job offer which needs an EAD. Can we try going to INS downtown and explain. would they consider the situation. Do i also need the original receipts.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks
Anil

Here are the things to take for your interim EAD:
- copy of 485 receipt (make a copy and take it since INS will take the copy)
- copy of EAD receipt (also copy)
- EAD application typed out (for this u might need the original EAD application for reference, actually they will give u a form at the front window to fill out)
- no application fee.
I dont think u can get it before 90 days of RD. Especially LA will be very very tough.
Good Luck

Hi,
I thought I would throw in my experience at L.A. downtown for the benefit of others.
all you need is your I-765 receipt notice. NOTHING ELSE.
No pictures, no money, no nothing.
Of course it does not hurt to bring a COPY of the application if it makes you feel better, but they really do not need it from you. It\'s in the computer!
A receipt notice is good enough even if it is all that you have with you. They pull you file from the numbers printed on it.
That\'s how I did it. ( just in case, I had many more papers in my back pocket but I did not pulled out any other papers as the officer has not requested any )
That\'s it.

Hi Anil,
I am in the same boat as you. Can you please let me know about your experience of going to INS (before 90 days ) from EAD. This would be a big help.
Thanks.
