RFE on EAD??

Guys,
Hi got an RFE for EAD renewal from NSC.

RD : 04/26
ND : 04/28
RFE : 06/16

RFE should be reaching NSC by the end of this week. The RFE was for I-140 approval notice.

How long does NSC take to approve EAD's after RFE response is received?

Regards,
Krishna
 
Based on your alien no (A#) from previously issued EAD, BCIS can easily find out if your I-140 was approved or not?

I do not see a point in issuing RFE against something for which BCIS can find an answer themselves. My EAD renewal RD is 5-14-03 and I am sure my attorney did not attach a copy if I-140 approval. I do not know if I will get the same RFE or not.
 
My wife just got an ead for the following items on a EAD renewal

1. Signed G28
2. Marriage Certificate (Relationship to the main applicant)
3. I-140 Approval (Again from the main applicant)

This is for the 2nd EAD renewal. They should already all this info and more. Didn't get an RFE for the first EAD.

Does'nt make sense.
 
BCIS is very unpredictable on approving cases once they receive RFE response. It could be 2 weeks to God knows how long.......

Hi Krishna....
You are fortunate enough to atleast get RFE. Although my RD and ND is same as yours, I haven't heard anything from them until now.

Mahesh,
I understand. Hang in there. Your approval will come soon. BTW the Atty should be replying to me my RFE today or tommorrow.

Regards,
Krishna
 
Krishna & firesan,

Did both you guys go for concurrent filing of I-140 & 485 or did you file for 485 after getting the 140 approved ?
 
Krishna,

I wanted to know if the original EAD was obtained via concurrent filing. BCIS used to approve the EAD even prior to the I-140 approval, but they discontinued the practise for the concurrrent filing .

Maybe 485 filers who filed concurrently and recieved the EAD prior to the I-140 approval are recieving RFEs when they go for renewal.

Just a thought
 
This was not a concurrnet filing.

485 RD is 5/31/2002

BCS receieved the RFE response on 6/30, waiting for approval.

Krishna,

Even for my wife, I-140 was asked as RFE for her EAD as well as AP renewals. I wish BCIS would specify it clearly in their documentation requirements so that we could give all the papers at once, rather than face delays midway through the process.

For EAD renewal you guys attached the original letter received with EAD card. This week I am going for renewal.


Thanks in advance.
