Mine only took about two weeks from the time they got it, I sent mine UPS Standard, but USPS would work just as good too:)I only sent mine UPS because the office is open later. Just so you know you do

Usually takes a week or two, but for some people it's taking a little longer depending where there service area will be for biometrics. Some of the service centers are overly booked so they might jus

I know! I was so depressed when I was assembling the package... Isn't it enough that I moved here, from a wealthy country -with affordable healthcare!- away from my family and friends? I know it's worth it, don't get me wrong, I just wished it was a little bit different... And then, we might have to go through another interview? I mean, c'mon!!!

Hey, but I'm not complaining! :innocent:

Vero, I forgot to tell you that I received my EAD and AP in the mail. AP arrived November 22nd, and EAD on the 23rd.

Actually, I almost never got it!

My landlady accidentally grabbed it in her pile of penny savers ads. She was about to throw the ads away when she noticed a white envelope poking out. I couldn't believe it when she told me! Of all things to lose, that is probably the most important to me right now!

Civil Ceremony - 08/27/10

Applied for SSN in married name - 09/06/10 (I was told it will take 4 weeks to get the background check cleared and an additional 2 weeks to receive my card)

Hahaha! Gosh, that was close!!! I would have been so mad at her!!! At least she realized it before it was too late!!! Congratulations on receiving them both! That's good news!

This really isn't too relevant to this thread but I wanted to let my VJ friends know what's going on. I was taken to the er and admitted into the hospital last night for a seizure. I've never had one before and it really freaked my wife out. I'm waiting for some more tests right now as the first batch was inconclusive.

Moral of the story: don't cheap out on health insurance. I can only imagine the bill will be around 10k and I really wouldn't want to have to pay that myself.

So sorry to hear this. I hope you are alright.

Gosh, nickbits, that's scary! Are you better? What caused it, do they know? Will you have to take medication? How long did you have to stay in? Did you have symptoms before?

I hope you feel better soon, let us know!

I'm still in the hospital now and they are trying to figured it out.

No warnings really. I was feeling semi nauseous the while day but that isn't out if the ordinary for me (started a few weeks before I got married so I assumed it was just stress associated with that).

Oh my gosh, so sorry to hear this! Hope you have a full recovery and are back to yourself soon. An abrupt introduction to US health insurance I am sure...I've been trying to wade through making my first doctor's appointments down here and its definatly a new experience compared to Canada.

Hope you have an answer to the cause soon and sending you well wishes! Please do keep us posted your VJ friends are thinkin' bout ya!
