Congrats to all the new EAD/AP/GC approvals! I thought those card production delays mentioned on the USCIS website was just for the GC, or am i wrong? Becuz the EAD seem to keep coming pretty fast. :thumbs:

Good morning everybody, just a quick update:

I updated the spreadsheet as good as I could using the signature and profile timelines. Thanks to all of you for making this spreadsheet look so good :thumbs:

Also, I highlighted the upcoming GC interview dates, so they're easier to see. Once the date has passed I'll put it back to normal, and the "GC received" column should say something like "approved", "denied" or "pending" and when the GC arrives in the mail, the date itself of course.

I wish you all a nice weekend, especially panterchen before she starts her new job on Monday.

Chibby :star:

No expedite here....I'm not sure why we got it so fast--maybe it depends on the field office, the Boston field office had almost no one there when we went for our biometrics. Maybe they aren't as overloaded as some other offices?

How do you get biometrics earlier than the appointment date, do you just show up without telling them? How long did you have to wait?

You just go there earlier without telling them. I have not heard of a case yet where they would reject the people coming in too early. This danger exists but in most cases the offices don't seem to care too much. I did it the same way and I doubt they even noticed. No one checked my appointment date or said anything about it and I was in and out in 30 minutes.

Thanks a lot, Chibby! I really look forward to starting my job this monday. Finally!! Will get some more sun this weekend and relax a bit before the busy times are back.

Happy weekend to all and good luck job searching!!

When I went to do my biometrics at Orlando there were just one woman infront me and nobody else in whole office, it seems like desert. But as I can see here at VJ that Orlando office is so slow with EADs. Who knows what they do.

Well got my EAD/AP early last week but seriously still can't see my I-485 application on the USCIS website. I even called them about it, they sent me to tier 2 support who said they had to create a ticket to get it fixed and wait a week. A week later: Nothing. Atleast they confirmed over the phone that it was still fine.

I know it's frustrating, but some people never see their case online and it goes through just fine. Try to be patient and not worry until you get news in the mail.

Thanks, Chibby for making the spreadsheet look great. I hope no one gets any denial's!!!

Still waiting for EAD and AP, but we didn't really expect any news this week. Maybe next week. Happy weekend to everyone!

Hi Chibby,

I can't get the spreadsheet to work on my old Mac. Can you please fill in the biometrics date of May 30th for me?

Also, we were transferred back to NBC but do you want me to leave it as we were transferred to California? (because I guess if we weren't adjusting from Visa Waiver we would have stayed in Cali).

Thanks,

Peach
