So is there a difference between "card production ordered" and "EAD approval"? I have seen some ppl on here talking about how they got an e-mail saying EAD approved, but I only got the e-mail that said "card production ordered." So will I receive the "EAD approved e-mail" later or since it says card production ordered does that mean it is approved already? Surely!!

Jesus holds the key to YOUR future! So why not put ALL your trust and faith in HIM?

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war rise up against me, yet I will be confident. (Psalm 27: 1, 3)

You'll still receive it in about the same time either with approval or card production ordered. When you get card ordered, about 5 days or so later you'll get approval notice mailed with your card in it.

It feels like we are the only ones still waiting for EAD and AP :unsure:

We're still waiting too...We're on our 2nd RFE for the same thing that we don't have and can't get. Just trying to figure out how to prove to USCIS....or at least try and get them to look at what we've sent that already explains it. Very frustrating, so I guess we're on hold until we can get that sorted out.
