Ok I got the letter today in the mail. And what I need is check stubs and letters from employers of my petitioner and sponsor. So annoying cus I had already provided all

Of that. And plus all that info is in the w-2!! Ugh! I guess is not enough evidence. They want 6 months of check stubs. And we provided only a month and a half of check stubs for each.

It's upsetting!!!

No, we haven't. No update on our USCIS case status either. Really hoping it arrives before the holidays.

I wrote a full detailed account of our AOS process, timeline, AP use, and interview on my blog. You can read it here.

I can't even begin to think about the EAD card as I haven't even gotten a biometric appointment. Yes, I have been calling and they keep saying wait 30 days. The 3rd will be 30 days so I'll be calling again, then. Does a delay in biometric affect EAD 75 day mark?

Ok, please let us know as soon as the first EAD/AP cards start to be received. It should happen in the next 2 weeks for the early October filers.

I have pretty much the same timeline as Sean & Kristina.

Cheers! :joy:

We all have very close timelines. But I got an RFE on November 6. And I'm almost ready to send back what they asked for. I hope by Wednesday the latest and see how fast they love from there. I hope soon!!!

It's December 1st and no further update on my end. Our VisaJourney timeline is estimating EAD getting adjudicated between 12/11 - 12/15 and AP between 12/10 - 12/13. We really just want to receive it in the mail by the 16th before we depart for the holidays...all domestic travel so it's not absolutely necessary...but still would like the peace of mind.

I wrote a full detailed account of our AOS process, timeline, AP use, and interview on my blog. You can read it here.

That's great to see some movement.

In other news, I've downloaded the USCIS Case Tracker app for iOS and keep refreshing it hoping to see updates on our EAD/AP card.

Still nothing....anyone?

My driver's license expired yesterday, so I can't renew it without the EAD/AP card!

This waiting game is killing me...on Monday will be 74 days since they received my application and still nothing!

Good luck everyone!
