AOS appt letter but no EAD

[felshen 0]

Yipee!!! we got our letter for our AOS interview.. we filed 04/06 but still no EAD. Should we be concerned?

Also curious as to why some are sent to CSC and some have interviews.. how is that determined?

we just got our interview letter as well, without our EAD being approved yet. You're not alone!

Felicia,

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! I'm so excited for you! And so fast!!! YEAH!!! Some of the K-1 visa holders are transferred to CSC for processing and do not usually require interviews. ALL K-3 visa holders will have interviews at their local offices. I'm not sure of the rationale behind it but who ever said that the immigration dept makes sense?!?!! We never got our EAD either and it has been a whopping 6 months since our application date. Of course, we got the interim EAD but it's still frustrating we didn't get the real thing. However, for us, it doesn't matter since we have the AOS interview next month. The green card is better than the EAD.

I'm not sure when your AOS interview is and whether you will be eligible for the interim EAD before then. If so, you can always apply for it 90 days after the NOA date at your local office. If your interview isn't too far off, it might not be worth it to you but that's a personal decision.

Hope this helps.

Molly

P.S. Got your message and I'm doing a four day stretch at work. But I'll call you this weekend.

Thanks, We're so excited .. If only that EAD card would come or at least the e-mail saying its approved. the funny thing is that when I went to USCIS site and checked our portfolio, the records arent updated since our last touch 05/26.. is that normal? Am I looking in the right place?
