Got my EAD and AP in the post. Interestingly (and slightly annoyingly) it wasn't a combo card but just the EAD card then the AP as a separate document. EAD came a day before the AP. Oh well, didn't really plan on using the AP anyway so I don't feel its a real inconvenience.

Best wishes everyone!

I believe it has to be a certified copy, and they may want the long form version, just like they ask for the US citizen, in the 129-F petition.

Hi guys, so my EAD was sent out on September 10th to my old address ( I updated USCIS of my new address on Sept 1st). Because of the change of address, my package was sent to the mail forwarding center and it's been there since Sept 12th and I'm yet to receive my EAD. I have spoken to several USPS supervisors and they keep assuring me I'll get my package in a few days but this hasn't happened. I opened a case with USPS and it was no help. Do you guys think I should request for another card to be sent by USCIS or do you have any suggestions? Thanks guys

The same thing happened to me and another person I've been talking to.

Go here https://egov.uscis.gov/e-Request/Intro.doand put in a service request for "Did not receive card by mail" It takes about 30 days for them to answer, and they might make you wait 30 days for the lost card. In both mine & the other persons cause, USPS sent it back to USCIS as it was unforwardable, and lost it for almost a month in the forwarding center.

You should also change your address, again, separately, for each pending case. We've moved twice and the original address had our interview waiver letter sent to it. Mildly terrifying that they can't keep track of mail.

Good luck!

More combo cards and actual GC arriving!!! Congrats.

My husband gave to his first estimates for work over the weekend. So good to see him feeling like a contributing member of society - not earning a wage was really starting to get to him.

We are now at 101 days of waiting; no RFE's, and no word except original messages about our three forms being received on June 19, 2015. We got our Senator's office involved and he submitted a request to USCIS for a status update. USCIS said that our EAD and AP papers were currently under review with an officer and that our AOS had been transferred to Agana USCIS field office for interview waiver consideration (In Guam) which was suppose to even out the load among all USCIS offices. Pittsburgh is our local office. We then contacted our attorney and she did some more digging and was told we will hear by October 10 about the EAD/AP applications.She also told us that from our Senator's letter, we should get an interview letter soon. I'm not sure what she meant by that; meaning, are we going to be required to attend an interview or not? It's all very confusing, and although I am happy so many of you have received your approvals by now, there are some of us well past 75 days which seems to be the average wait time. So, for those of you still waiting, you are not the only ones. I'm not sure why it's so different for a process which follows up on intensive investigations being done at the K1 visa level, but I guess it's just the way it is. So, now a US Territory, Guam, is evaluating our AOS application.
