EAD was denied due to an error by USCIS. They thought that the 485 was in denied state. However, 485 was denied 2 months back, MTR was filed and 485 was back to pending. After 485 moved back to pending state, I filed for EAD.
Some how, NSC thinks that 485 is denied. Called USCIS and IO acknowledged that this is a clear error and gave me the following choices:
1. Open MTR for denied EAD and provide evidence of pending 485.
2. File new EAD (with evidence of pending 485)
3. Get infopass and talk to an officer. Have the officer fax the new evidence directly to the service center.
What's the best option to get an EAD in the next 50 days. That's when the existing EAD is expiring.
On a diff. note, AP was approved yesterday from TSC. So, TSC thinks everything is fine, while NSC thinks 485 is denied.
