Does anyone know on average how long it takes to receive the EAD once you've received an approval letter? Really want to get working - my personal money is running a bit low! :S

Did you receive the approval letter already??

Yea I saw that. But also we have to be aware that if we get a RFE that allows the USCIS to delay our case, and some of the April filers that haven't received their card yet are in this case...

We had the biometrics appointment today. Looking forward to getting on with the process. All those that haven't heard yet, have you made an appointment to talk to someone at the local office yet? If it's been that long, it can't hurt to go see someone about how long you can expect to wait...

Also, if you find someone who's willing to employ your spouse, they may be able to push the system along faster...at least that's what I've heard. Good luck everyone!

Has anyone received an RFE and didn't see any updates on the USCIS website? My case status has not been updated since 05/18 when my case was received.

btw - I (also) received an RFE regarding the I-864 (I send a letter of employment, full tax return and 6-months of pay stubs as additional evidence).

Seems like nobody gets any updates recently, probably uscis hasn't update the site since first days of June. What was wrong with your I-864 that you got an RFE?

According to the letter I didn't provide sufficient evidence for meeting the 125%. Three years of tax transcripts and one paystub was not sufficient evidence.

They asked for a full 2014 tax return and job letter. I also included the 6 months of paystubs to be safe.

1.Does anyone know if having a RFE for the I-485 slows down the EAD and AP too or only the AOS?

2.Also, can one get hired after getting the approval letter but before receiving the EAD card in hand?

Good luck to everyone !!!! It's not easy to have to wait so long but we're all though, we did it through the various visas we came to the U.S. to be with our loved ones... now at least we get to be together ;) but it isn't easy to not work for such a long time... ugh, talk about social and professional life lol I'll have a big gap on my resume xD

Has anyone received an RFE and didn't see any updates on the USCIS website? My case status has not been updated since 05/18 when my case was received.

btw - I (also) received an RFE regarding the I-864 (I send a letter of employment, full tax return and 6-months of pay stubs as additional evidence).

Nothing has changed for me either, I received a RFE for the I-485 Saturday and haven't sent it back yet.

(Tax Return of Petitioner missing & one line on the Joint Sponsor about the household size was wrong or not completed). I hope to have everything next week and send it back :)

No!! I'm just wondering when I'll likely be able to work.

I'm also playing the game of guessing lol
