Congrats everyone!! It's so nice to see that we're all getting approved relatively fast! Now just hope the Green Card gets approved soon. Though now that we have the EAD it takes a lot of the stress of waiting away since my husband can now work and get his state ID/driver's license.

Ahh so they WILL take the EAD for IA license?? Do you know anything else about what he'll need to take in there???

I just got my EAD!!! I am so happy!!! :dance: :dance: :dance:

I have a question guys. what documents are needed in applying for SSN? Do i just need to bring the EAD? Is there anything else? also, anybody from California? Do I need to wait for SSN to apply for driver's license?

Thanks so much for everyone. VJ has been such a great help. Now all I need to wait for is the interview date. and of course the greencard hopefully!!! Im hoping soon and no RFE's. :whistle:

According to their website, it's listed as an acceptable document, so I'm assuming it will work. I'm also having him bring his passport, a letter he received with our mailing address from February, and his SSN card.

That sounds about the same for us. I just planned on using one of our bank statements, too, which I think is another document that could be used to prove it.

My husband got his drivers permit today. We took his SSN card, the EAD, the NOA1 from the I-485 to prove residence status. I think we brought his passport as well. He's still a bit nervous about driving so he just got the permit for now. He said the test was pretty easy. He only missed two questions.
