Welcome new filers! Congrats.

It does seem like the USCIS is picking up the pace. We filed April 6, and had biometrics appointment on April 29th. I would expect you may get letters the end of next week.

Happy waiting!

Yes I did send the packet last april 20 then I just get notice of action for i-485 but never recieved notice of action for ead. Well, maybe I just gonna wait for few days I just get my notice of action of i-485 last thursday. Maybe the other letter will be coming up soon in my mail. I Hope so now Im kinda worried. Did you really get all your notice of action on the same day on the mail? or on following days? THANKS!
