So I went for biometrics today, everything went smoothly except I felt so disappointed when the lady told me that I should expect my Employment Permit 60-90 days from today. I've always thought it was 60-90 days from the day my AOS application was filed which was March 29 (NOA date).

To those who waited for Employment Permit in the past, how long did it take for it to arrive?

Hope to get mine real soon. I wanna work already! :help:

Took 24 days after biometrics to get a work and travel permit in the mail.

I got EAD approved 4 weeks after biometrics. Don't rely too much on what they said there since it's ultimately not their call.

K1 process, October 2010 > POE, July 2011

I-129F approved in 180 days from NOA1 date. (195 days from filing to NOA2 in hand)

Interview took 224 days from I-129F NOA1 date. (241 days from filing petition until visa in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until POE: 285 days

Click timeline or "about me" for all details.

AOS process, December 2011 > July 2012

EAD/AP Approval took 51 days from NOA1 date to email update. (77 days from filing until EAD/AP in hand)

AOS Approval took 206 days from NOA1 date to email update. (231 days from filing until greencard in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until greencard in hand: 655 days

THANK YOU SO MUCH you guys! Your replies made my day. I was feeling quite down, but knowing that for most of you, it didn't take THAT long, I'm sure it won't be too long for me too. I've always had work back home so not having one is such a bore. It did feel relaxing at first, touring here and there with all the free time that I'm having, but now that the tourist stage has been replaced by reality, I sure am anxious to work again.

As always, I can rely on VJ friends for answers. :star:
