You might have your AP by then - or you might not. The rule of the thumb is that AP and EAD arrive within 90 days from filing - usually. Mine arrived in about 70 days or so, but it can take longer as well. If yours will take three months, you'll get it mid-December, so I wouldn't necessarily book costly tickets for November..

the time really does vary by location. look at other members' timelines and see how long it has taken for others. im coming up on 2 months and the wife hasn't gotten an EAD yet.

November seems too early to plan a trip. even if you see the fastest timeline, you have to factor in RFE's which could delay your case.

I would put that trip off if i were you
