Don't worry, all 3 of my receipts don't show up in the website. I've read that it's quite normal, and that USCIS even said not to rely on their case status updates online. It still sucks though that I don't see my case status even if it's under "Initial Review". The same thing happened to my K1 visa, so don't worry about it. You might even get approved faster than all of us. :P

Glad to hear that Hope :) I wish you luck and patience throughout this time. I never think we need luck in Federal process before, but after USCIS lost my medical exam, I change my mind and always pray for more luck! :thumbs:

Done with my biometrics appointment today! But the lady who assisted me said that she will use my maiden name since thats the name on my passport which i used to show as a form of identification. I did not bring our marriage certificate. What is gonna happen on my EAD? All of my NOA's are under my married name. The lady said to call USCIS and tell them about my name changing. But they already know since I filed with my married name. Any advice?

One more thing. I applied for I-485 and EAD and AP. But on my Appointment notice it only shows I-485 and I-765. How about my I-131/AP? Does that mean they are not processing it? I got my NOA also for my I-131.

Please help

Hey! I don't think you need biometrics for AP. Since EAD/AP is usually just a combo card now, it suffices for both. I applied for AP as well, and my biometrics notice also only mentioned the 485 and 765. Totally normal!

Received this via text and email last night. I haven't received anything in the mail yet...but, I am hoping and praying it got transferred to CSC and we have no interview.....right?? :yes: LOL That's the latest news for us...EAD and AP are still quiet since biometrics.

Some say that the EAD takes anywhere from 14 days -1 mth after the Biometrics . The GC takes longer . Some persons have received the GC before the EAD . It depends on how long the security background check comes back .Good luck .
