Today I checked my status online. They mailed my renewal Card. It took only 2 weeks for them to send my renewal card. Pretty fast.
Awesome! that is pretty fast, the fees were $380, right? another question is do they date the new EAD from the expiration of your last EAD or from the date they receive the papers for the renewal? that is why I want to know when exactly I should apply.
thanks for the update.
I got my EAD C8 based on pending asylum over 150 days but on the EAD card the A# is different than the A# assigned to me by the asylum office.
Do you guys have the same situation? If yes why?

Hi Karri 2008:
Yes the fee is $380. I think your new date starts when they receive the application. But I am not sure because I have not yet receive my Card. I just checked online that they had sent my card on August 9. So, once I receive my new card I will be able to answer your question. Since, I got my card approved in 2 weeks, I would say it should be fine if you apply within 2 months before your card expire, considering the delay from USCIS. I have applied 3 months before my card expire because I do not want to jeopardy my job if it got stuck in somebody's desk. If you have job then I would recommend you to give yourself plenty of time. Hope you get your card and Asylum application approved soon.
hey there, did you receive your EAD? please don't for get to let me know about the issuance date. Thanks
Just receive my new card. The issuance date is the next day when my current card expires.
Hey Everyone,
God Bless you all.
I have been waiting for my asylum decision since June 1 2011 which was suposse to be mailled since then; My attorney had been seemingly doing her best to follow up and they keep telling us to wait; Can anyone help me out here? My moods swings all the time, its so hard to keep my drive. Within that time I've had a couple of miscarriage being so stressed out. How do anyone survives that, how long should I be waiting; God help me.
Thank you.
Hi folks,
I had my interview done on August 8 2012. I was initially told to pick up my decision after 2 weeks. But on the day I was supposed to pick up the decision, I got a call from the Asylum office that my decision will be mailed to me. It's been 2 months since my interview and don't have any ideas what's going on. I've been checking with EOIR but when I enter my A# it says my case cannot be found. I checked with the asylum office but they say they cannot give me any information regarding my case. Can anybody help me with this?
STEP SIX: Asylum Officer Makes Determination on Eligibility and Supervisory Asylum Officer Reviews the Decision
You must meet the definition of a refugee in order to be eligible for asylum. The asylum officer will determine whether you:·
Are eligible to apply for asylum
Meet the definition of a refugee in Section 101(a)(42)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA)
Are barred from being granted asylum under Section 208(b)(2) of the INA
A supervisory asylum officer reviews the asylum officer’s decision to ensure it is consistent with the law. Depending on the case, the supervisory asylum officer may refer the decision to asylum division headquarters staff for additional review.
STEP SEVEN: Applicant Receives Decision
In most cases, you will return to the asylum office to pick up the decision two weeks after the asylum officer interviewed you.
You will generally receive a decision no later than 60 days after you filed your asylum application. Longer processing times may be required if you:
Are currently in valid immigration status
Were interviewed at a USCIS field office
Have pending security checks
Have a case that is being reviewed by asylum division headquarters staff
how do you know they faxed that letter?and how do you know whether they did not answer or not?did you file a letter for withdrawal
You will be able to check it online only if you get final approval by USCIS not EOIR.
When you get approved, the online system will give you the status of your EAD. You get EAD automatically 2 days after you get approved by USCIS.
Hi assylum,
I just checked the USCIS website with my Z number and it says....we mailed the new card directly to the address we have on file. You should receive your new card within 30 days. If you do not, or if you move before you get it, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.
I never applied for EAD and its been 12 days since my asylum interview.Is the above update a guarantee that its a final approval?
Congratulations, yes your case is approved and you should receive the EAD A05 within a week or so. You are lucky not to have to wait like some of us.
Happy for you and good luck with the next steps.
