Did you receive the approval letter in the mail? My ead was approved one day later than his, I think, and today I received the official letter saying it was approved. But the EAD was not inside of it. I don't know if this is normal or what O.o

I didn't get an approval letter.. i just got the EAD.

Never even got an approval notice at all on the website, it just went to Card Production.

maybe your approval notice was undeliverable too, and since there's no tracking number, you never even knew that.

I still didn't get my update saying the EAD was mailed with the tracking number, maybe I will hear something today.... I'll just wait

That doesn't make sense and it worries me.. everything else has come and the EAD had a perfectly good address but was still labeled undeliverable.

I think you'll hear something by the end of the day.

So I got a letter from USCIS today saying that I'm a "potential interview waiver case", meaning I might not need to do an interview.

HOWEVER, due to workload delays, my delay will be approx 6 months from the date of that letter (Nov 12th).

I'm a little :) because I got some sort of confirmation but :( that it's another 6 months. Looking at another thread of workload delays, it does seem most people get it by the 6 month mark.

I'm glad it is 6 now or else I would call USCIS and ask them why?!? LOL. Hopefully somebody in USCIS will realize it and do the processing according to priority dates.

I have seen a lot this cases when I am browsing the forums. Another 6 months wait is just too much. I hope that this is not the case...
