From everyone if you look in this forum you can find info from the Houston folks... anyway i filed in July 2015 (AOS through marriage concurrent) and still waiting for an interview i know that most people that filed in May 2015 are also still waiting. An info pass also confirmed that there is a huge back log. Just a heads up

How long was the wait for your EAD?

Aliyaan,

I don't know how to proceed with this. I finished my studies 10 years ago so no need for me, unless I decide to study again

I guess you should contact the school you'd like to attend and they will explain to you what to do?

Thank you, will do that

Our online status now changed to "we are ready to schedule your interview." Problem is we don't know how bad the backlog is for Dallas.

Anyone else filing with Dallas or has an idea about how long it may take?

Good luck to us all.

Hi Bugg,

I don't know the answer to your question but I guess it also takes a few months to have an interview.. However, I'm glad to hear you have this status now.

When are you supposed to receive your EAD? I'm still waiting for mine, hopefully at the end of this month or beginning of March...

OMG!!! I just checked again my case online and my EAD/AP are approved!!

On February 17, 2016, we approved your Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, Receipt Number MSCxxx. We will mail your approval notice.

I'm so happy I can't wait to start to work again! Now I "just" need to find a job - an other story!

Does anyone know how long it takes to receive the EAD?

Hi- I'm about a week or two behind your date. Let's hope the RFE didn't delay things too much. I'm so ready to get back to work and grad school!

I called yesterday to have my I-765 expedited and was given a case number and told that I would be contacted to state why I qualify for expedited filing. Not sure of it has anything to do with it, but my I-485 status just changed to "ready to be scheduled for an interview". Does anyone know how long it usually takes from now till the actual interview?

It depends on your local office. Usually it takes a few months but it all depends on how fast your local office proceeds.

Check this link: https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/processTimesDisplayInit.do

Or you can also check after how long people who are in your same local office got their interview, to give you an idea.

That's great! My EAD was also mailed yesterday, it should arrive next week! Waiting on the interview date too.

Keep fingers crossed for the next steps - Happy weekend everybody!

Hey everyone!! Congrats on your EAD approvals.

I just wanted to give you all a heads up when you apply for your SSNs.

Make sure you wait 10 full days from the date that your EAD says it was issued, so that the social security administration has the updated records from DHS. That way your number will be generated immediately and you'll have your card in less than a week.

If you go before the 10 days are up, you will still be able to apply, but they have to manually verify your EAD which can take some time. It took me nearly three weeks to get my social.
