Really confused EAD and AOS question

[Milkman 0]

I was wondering if this is normal. My local office is Oklahoma city but at the bottom of my EAD and AOS NOA1 it says Lee's Summit, MO so I am guessing this means Kansas city, but why would my local office be Kansas city when oklahoma city is the local office here?

Thanks

Lee Summit is the address of Missouri Service Center which processes AOS cases sent to Chicago lock box. It does not have anything to do with where you live or your local USCIS office. MSC processes EADs and APs and does some pre-processing for I-485 before forwarding onto your local office. Hope this helps!

Thanks, that settles that confusion. So when looking at procession times for EAD should I look at the National Benefits Center processing times? I am yet to receive anything past NOA1. When does one look at the local district office processing times, in my case Oklahoma city. The date on my NOA1 for EAD is December 14th.

Thanks again!

Yes, you should check MSC/NBC dates for EAD and AP. For I-485, you are supposed to check processing dates for your local office.

But the local office dates are completely off -- they post the "oldest" I-485 cases they are adjudicating, which makes the dates off by a couple of months at least. Right now, my local office says they are processing AOS applications of June 8 '05, while I filed Sept 2 05, and I got my interview letter a month ago.

Great, thank you very much!

Once they start working the AOS they will direct all appointments to your local office. Good luck
