Our AOS is currently under "Testing & Interview" but the EAD and AP is still under "Initial Review" and has been since October 7th. Is this wait time normal? Or should I be expecting an RFE since it's taking this long? I just don't understand how the one case status is moving along and the others seem to have stalled...

Your wait time is completely normal, even faster than many cause you are already in testing and interview. EAD can take up to 90 days to be approved. I would say The speed at which cases move is mostly dependent on the case load your local office and whether they're backed up or not among other determining factors

Thank you for your reply :)

I can't seem to find anyone with their local office in Philly so I haven't a clue of what their processing times are looking like.

Your case looks to have gone pretty quickly as well... Good luck with your interview on the 19th!!!

I would imagine that is completely normal since you already did your biometrics and are now waiting for an interview. The AP and EAD do not really require any more effort from us once we send in the applications. I wouldn't worry too much if I were you))

Ok so my case finally appeared in the case status online today after I received the 3 NOA case numbers on Friday night.....But sad to see that they have the reveived date online as today 11/10 after they actually received and signed for it on 10/20.....

Yeah my dates are on the site as November 10. Guess that makes us November filers) At least they have our stuff and are starting to work on it... Much better than them losing our files and starting over again from scratch.. I do regret paying $50 to overnight it to chicago now though) Could have been a new top))

My uscis status is also saying November 10! I created a new November filers thread for us too :)http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/522062-november-2014-aos-filers/

Husband had his biometrics today at 11 am in the Milwaukee office. The process was quick, easy and everyone was friendly. Advice is, don't take electronics, please treat it like airport security as in remove all metal objects BEFORE having to go through the detector and make sure you have your letter and ID ready. The security officers told my husband that he was literally the easiest person to deal with because he listened to what they were telling him to do at the security checkpoint. So come prepared, be alert, calm and friendly. Odds are if you are prepared and do exactly what they tell you, they won't be cranky with you :)

I checked mine and my I-765 & I-131 are both now saying received on October 23rd.

My I-485 now says my fingerprint fee was accepted on November 6. I wonder if I'll get my biometrics appointment letter now? I haven't received the hardcopy of my NOA's just yet but I figured it would take at least a week at the least.

It took me about 10 days to receive the biometrics appt. letter. You should have it soon! I'm guessing you'll be scheduled before the end of the month :)

So looks like my wife is getting a job offer. Her current EAD expires May of 2015. I wonder if we should try expediting her case on the basis of hardship using the job offer she is about to get. Not sure how long the whole process will take so if by May we are not done yet then she won't be able to work anymore.

Thoughts?
